Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor film materials and relates to a rare-earth metal ion doped ZnO diluted magnetic semiconductor film with high quality, low resistivity and intrinsic ferromagnetism and a preparation method thereof. The chemical composition of the film provided by the invention is in accordance with the general chemical formula, namely, Zn1-x-yErxAlyO, wherein x is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 0.03, and y is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 0.02. In the method provided by the invention, a way of rare-earth metal ion Er and Al donor doping is adopted, a ceramic target is utilized as a base and the ZnO-based diluted magnetic semiconductor film with intrinsic ferromagnetism is prepared by adopting an ICP-PVD (inductively coupled plasma-physical vapor deposition) technique. By adopting the ICP-PVD technique in the invention, the metal ion Er can be evenly doped into the ZnO crystal lattice; and meanwhile, the carrier concentration of the ZnO film doped with Al can be obviously improved, thus the ferromagnetic transformation among Er<2+> ions can be effectively adjusted and all films have intrinsic ferromagnetism and anomalous Hall effect above room temperature. Therefore, the semiconductor film provided by the invention can be widely applied to spinning electron devices.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor thin film materials, and relates to a rare earth metal ion-doped ZnO dilute magnetic semiconductor thin film with high quality, low resistivity and intrinsic ferromagnetism and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, human beings have entered into a highly electronic and information society. The processing, storage and transmission of information will require unprecedented scale and speed. In the semiconductor industry, semiconductor devices dominated by Si materials have been developed for more than half a century. With the continuous shrinking of the feature size of semiconductor devices, the processing technology of a single transistor has gradually reached the dual limits of physics and technology. How to realize the above-mentioned leap in electronic information technology has become one of the major scientific problem...
