摘要
Single-phase zinc-stannate thin films of different thickness values were prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on a silica substrate. Rietveld analysis of X-ray diffraction data confirmed that the films had an inverse spinel structure, with a cation inversion parameter of 0.8. Room temperature far and mid infrared reflectivity spectra were measured in the range 50-4000 cm(-1). The reflectivity diagrams were analyzed using the four-parameter model of coupled oscillators for optical phonons with a standard multi-layer technique taking into account the thin-film layer and the substrate. The optical parameters were determined for seven oscillators belonging to the spinel structure. Their origin was discussed in relation to non-stoichiometry of the thin film and cation disorder in the crystal lattice. Bom effective charges were calculated from the transversal/ longitudinal splitting. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V All rights reserved.
