摘要
The annealing effects of sapphire substrate before deposition on the quality of epitaxial Zn1-xMgxO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition are reported. Our Experimental results indicate that the surface quality of Zn1-xMgxO thin films and hexagonal columnar growth is improved on the annealed sapphire substrate at high temperatures due to formation of atomic terraces on the substrate surface. The photoluminescence signals also increases with the increasing annealing temperature of the substrate. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
