摘要
The role of precursor doses and purge times on the atomic layer deposition (ALD) of high-density alpha-PbO2-type TiO2 polymorph (TiO2-II) is studied. It has been shown that the conditions closest to ideal ALD result in the most favourable growth of TiO2-II films from TiCl4, and H2O. Complete coverage of solid surface with chloride during TiCl4 pulse, is a crucial precondition for obtaining TiO2-II structure. The maximum thickness of pure TiO2-II films is limited and depends on the growth conditions. The gas-phase reactions and the surface reactions via OH-groups which reduce the Cl/Ti ratio in the surface intermediate layer formed during TiCl4, pulse, cause a decrease in this value.
