Tailoring phase and composition at the nanoscale: atomic layer deposition of Zn–Ti–O thin films

Abstract

Different Zn–Ti–O phases were prepared with high reproducibility in the form of very thin films (thickness: 40 nm) by alternating atomic layer deposition cycles of TiO2 and ZnO precursors at 90 °C, followed by annealing at 600 °C. This procedure enables a very fine control of stoichiometry and the achievement of unexpected zinc titanate phases.
