摘要: ZnO nanocrystalline films are prepared on Si substrates at different temperatures by using metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD). It is observed that when the growth temperature low, stoichiometric ratio between Zn and O atoms has a large deviation from ideal of 1:1. The grains in film have small sizes not well crystallized, resulting poor photoluminescence (PL) property. When increased to an appropriate value, Zn/O becomes optimized, most combined into Zn—O bonds. Then good crystal quality PL If fairly high, interfacial mutual diffusion substrate epitaxial appears, desorption process oxygen enhanced. However, it no effect still best
