Electrical Properties of Aluminum Nitride Thick Films Magnetron Sputtered on Aluminum Substrates
MATERIALS(2022)
摘要
The realization of a c-axis oriented aluminum nitride thick film on aluminum substrates is a promising step in the development of transducers for applications with a working temperature up to about 600 degrees C. The present paper deals with the realization of AN thick films by means of reactive magnetron sputtering with a pulsed DC power supply, operating in continuous mode for 50 h. Two values (0.4 and 0.8) of nitrogen concentration were used; operative pressure and power were set at 0.3 Pa and 150 W, respectively. The thickness of the obtained aluminum nitride films on the aluminum substrate, assessed with a profilometer, varied from 20 to 30 mu m. The preferential orientation of AN crystals was verified by X-ray diffraction. Finally, as the main focus of the investigation, the films underwent electrical characterization by means of an LCR-meter used on a parallel plate capacitor setup and a test system based on a cantilever beam configuration. A1N conductivity and epsilon(33) permittivity were derived in the 100 Hz-300 kHz frequency range. Magnetron sputtering operation with nitrogen concentration equal to 0.4 resulted in the preferred operative condition, leading to a d(31 )piezoelectric coefficient, in magnitude, of 0.52 x 10(-12) C/N.
