The advantages of sputtering system is lower surface roughness, higher adhesion and more precise in film thickness than that of arc deposition system. The concentration of aluminum is no less than 70%. After depositing these two different film structures, these samples will be annealed at different temperature in vacuum. The mechanical properties of these films such as hardness, adhesion, surface roughness are measured by nano-indentation, scratch test and atomic force microscopy respectively. XTEM (cross-section transmission electron microscopy) can study the evolution of the microstructure and the interface regions of the films precisely. In this study, the evolution of the microstructure and the interface regions will be investigated by high- resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and the result will be related to the mechanical properties.Contents 論文口試委員審定書 i 誌謝 ii 中文摘要 iii Abstract iv 圖目錄 viii 表目錄 xiv Chapter 1 Introduction 1 Chapter 2 Research background 9 2-1 Plasma 9 2-2 Sputtering 11 2-2-1 DC Sputtering 11 2-2-2 RF Sputtering 12 2-2-3 Reactive Sputtering 13 2-2-4 Magnetron Sputtering 14 2-2-5 Substrate Bias Voltage Effect 15 2-3 Mechanism of Nucleation and Growth of Film 17 2-4 Microstructure of Film 20 2-5 Crystal Structure of TiAlN 22 2-6 Spinodal Decomposition 23 Chapter 3 Experiment 37 3-1 Experiment Procedures 37 3-2 Material Selections 38 3-3 Substrate Pretreatment 38 3-4 Facility of Sputtering 39 3-5 Sputtering Processes and Parameters 39 3-6 Heat Treatments 40 3-7 Microstructure Analysis 41 3-7-1 AFM 41 3-7-2 TEM 41 3-8 Chemical Composition Analysis 45 3-9 Mechanical Properties Test 45 3-9-1 Nano-Hardness Test 45 3-9-2 Adhesion Test 48 Chapter 4 Analyses of the nano-structure TixAl1-xN films 59 4-1 TixAl1-xN mono layer / Silicon substrate 59 4-1-1 Chemical analysis 59 4-1-1-1 EPMA 59 4-1-1-2 EDS(TEM) 59 4-1-2 Microstructure analysis 60 4-1-2-1 TEM 60 4-1-2-1-1 Overview 60 4-1-2-1-2 Column crystals 61 4-1-2-1-3 Interfaces 63 4-1-2-2 AFM 64 4-1-3 Mechanical properties analysis 65 4-1-3-1 Hardness 65 4-1-3-2 Scratch 65 4-2 TixAl1-xN / AlN buffer layer / Silicon substrate 66 4-2-1 Chemical analysis 66 4-2-1-1 EDS(TEM) 66 4-2-2 Microstructure analysis 66 4-2-2-1 TEM 66 4-2-2-1-1 Overview 66 4-2-2-1-2 Column crystals 67 4-2-2-1-3 Interfaces 67 4-2-2-3 AFM 69 4-2-3 Mechanical properties analysis 69 4-2-3-1 Hardness 69 4-2-3-2 Scratch 69 4-3 Summary 70 Chapter 5 Conclusions 98 Chapter 6 Future works 100 Chapter 7 Appendix 101 References 10318334258 bytesapplication/pdfen-US氮化鋁鈦電子顯微鏡磁控濺鍍奈米硬度原子力顯微鏡TiAlNTEMRF sputteringnano-hardnessAFM中介層與熱處理對氮化鋁鈦顯微結構分析Analysis of Microstructure Evolution of RF Sputtered Ti1(subscript -x)Al(subscript x)N Affected by Intermediate Layer and Heat Treatmentthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/55300/1/ntu-96-R94527010-1.pdf
