Abstract

The key to grow ZnO on Si by radical source (RS)-MBE is surface nitridation of the Si substrate. Growth of ZnO on Si(111) has been carried out using NH3 plasma nitridation of the Si surface prior to ZnO growth and strongly c-axis-orientated ZnO thin films were obtained. Strong excitonic PL emission around 3.38 eV was observed from ZnO on Si while Hall measurements showed n-type conductivity with an electron concentration of 1.87 × 1018 cm-3.
