Reversible oxidation of WOx and MoOx nano phases
2012
International audience; WOx and MoOx nano phases were prepared on TiO2(1 1 0) surfaces by a CVD procedure consisting of adsorption and decomposition of W(CO)(6) or Mo(CO)(6) precursors followed by annealing under UHV. Metal amount involved in each elaborated sample is in the fractional range from 0.1 to 0.35 equivalent monolayer (eqML) of W or Mo. Evolution of sample stoichiometry as a function of subsequent treatment is followed by valence band and core level photoemission as well as work function measurement. In each case, exposure of samples to molecular oxygen at room temperature induces an increase of sample work function in a range of several tenth of eV. Such a work function change i…
Structural analysis of W3O/WO3 and TiO/TiO2 periodic multilayer thin films sputter deposited by the reactive gas pulsing process
2012
International audience; DC reactive sputtering was used to deposit titanium and tungsten-based metal/oxide periodic nanometric multilayers using pure metallic targets and Ar + O-2 gas mixture as reactive atmosphere. The innovative technique namely, the reactive gas pulsing process allows switching between the metal and oxide to prepare a periodic multilayered structure with various metalloid concentrations and nanometric dimensions. The same pulsing period was used for each deposition to produce metal-oxide periodic alternations close to 10 nm. Structure, crystallinity and chemical composition of these films were systematically investigated by Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and Energ…
