Abstract

The use of the lattice polarizable material TiO2 as a possible SiO2 replacement for smaller devices was studied. Layers of polycrystalline anatase, which has a bandgap of approximately 3.2 eV, were deposited through the thermal decomposition of titanium tetrakis-isopropoxide. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry showed a [Ti]/[O] stoichiometric ratio of 1:2, within the sensitivity of the analysis. Atomic force microscopy indicated that the surface morphology was a sensitive function of deposition and post deposition annealing conditions. Optimum films, which were annealed in oxygen at 750°C after deposition, had average roughnesses of about 6% of the film thickness.
