1372. High mobility thin films of indium antimonide (USA) on to a cold substrate.

30 vacuum deposited

A method of vacuum deposition for preparing thin films of indium antimonide having high mobility is described. The method involves evaporating the compound onto a cold substrate and heating the deposit, and it is shown that electron mobilities of 1.3 mZ/V set can be achieved in films 1 p thick.

A series of problems common in temperature control and the achievement and control of defined temperature distributions in heat treating furnaces is discussed for a laboratory furnace, which is rebuilt from manual to automatic control. To facilitate the control of temperature and vacuum conditions, sensors are used to convert pressure into electrical signals.

Vacuum deposition of a porous material onto the substrate with subsequent rolling of the coated material to close the coating pores results in a non-porous metal coating. The process is performed in a vacuum or a non-oxidizing atmosphere. Al has been coated on steel by this method. R M Brick, US Patent

To bring vacuum crystallisation conditions closer to equilibrium, and improve the quality of the support surface treatment, a method is proposed for the introduction of a stream of chemically active gas directed on the support at the same time as the stream of evaporated material. It has been established experimentally that the introduction of a stream of iodine into the germanium condensation process increases the back-flow of Ge atoms, reduces the degree of nonuniformity of the process, and also improves the structure of the resulting films.

Structural and electrical characteristics of germanium films, deposited on amorphous and single crystal substrates, were determined. Work on amorphous quartz substrate has been reported in J Vat Sci Tech, 2(97), 1965, and this report presents the results for insulating single crystal substrates. Preliminary investigation of similarly deposited silicon films revealed a greater mobility of deposited silicon atoms on silicon substrates compared to deposits on sapphire substrates.

Thin films of solid solution Cd(S:Se) were prepared by vacuum evaporation. When the temperature of the glass or quartz plate used as a support was raised from 300°C to 600°C with increasing Cd proportion, films with nearly constant hexagonality of about 80 per cent were obtained. The experimental results on the photocurrent are compared with those obtained previously for Cd(S:Se) single crystals and some remarkable differences were found.

Some preliminary results on thin-film transistors using evaporated silicon films on sapphire are described. The transistors are completely deposited by evaporation techniques, and the electrode arrangement is identical with the coplanar electrode structure described by Weimer.

Heterojunctions have been made by depositing Ge epitaxially on GaAs substrate by vacuum evaporation. The crystalline structures are examined by electron diffraction. The electrical and photoelectric characteristics investigated were found to be consistent with those of junctions prepared by vapour growth. The appropriate characteristics of the heterojunction can be obtained at substrate temperatures around 800°C. I Ryn and K Takahashi, Jap J Appl Phys, 4 (II), Nov 1965, 8.50853, (in English). 30 1389.
