Abstract:
Thin silicon films on a cooled substrate are often found to develop two-phase lamellar structures upon radiative heating. Jackson and Kurtz developed a two-dimensional model for the process in which the heated film consists of alternating parallel bands of liquid and solid phases separated by straight solid-liquid interfaces. To understand the cellular or dendritic structures that sometimes are observed in these interfaces, they also performed a linearized morphological stability analysis and obtained the conditions for the growth or decay of infinitesimal perturbations to the interface. In this work we extend that analysis to finite amplitudes by developing a boundary integral representation of the thermal field, and obtain numerical solutions for nonplanar solid-liquid interfaces.

Abstract:
The non-destructive study and characterisation of thin films and their interfaces, on an atomic scale, is a crucially important area of study in many areas of science and technology. In this thesis both high angle and grazing incidence x-ray scattering techniques have been used to study the effect of depositing thin films on surfaces with a periodic roughness, as well as studying the structure of laterally modulated surfaces themselves. High angle diffraction measurements of the out-of-plane size of Co crystallites and the crystalline texture of the Ag lattice, in a series of CoAg granular fihns, has allowed a consistent growth mechanism for the Co grains to be deduced. In grazing incidence scattering studies of this series of thin, granular films it was observed that the diffuse scatter was offset from the specular condition and the position of this offset was seen to vary, sinusoidally, upon rotation of the sample. This led to the conclusion that the growth techniques employed had caused a regular step-bunching of the Si (111) substrate. As step-bunching of surfaces can affect greatly the properties of thin films deposited on them, the ability to characterise the substrate after growth is extremely important. In spin-valves deposited on rough, tiled, silicon oxide substrates, the presence of strong interference fringes in the off-specular scatter demonstrated that vertically conformal roughness dominated the system and this was seen to result in the degradation of the magnetic sensitivity of the samples. Conversely, an enhancement in the photoluminescence from thin polymer films deposited on laterally modulated substrates led to a series of studies being made on such structures. In order to obtain information on the lateral period of such structures, as well as their roughness and thickness, existing scattering theories have been modified and a semi-kinematical code of the coherent scatter has been developed.

Abstract:
The functionalization of surfaces has received attention because the process allows the design and tailoring of substrate surfaces with a new or improved function. â Host-guestâ thin film complexes are composed of â hostâ molecules attached the substrate surface, either through physisorption or covalent bonds, with cavities for the inclusion of desired â guestâ molecules for the functionalization of the surface. Two methods for fabricating functional â host-guestâ thin films were investigated: Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition and self-assembly monolayer (SAM). Langmuir films were created at the air-water interface using octadecanesulfonic acid (C18S) as the amphiphilic â hostâ molecules separated by hydrophilic guanidinium (G) spacer molecules, which created a cavity allowing the inclusion of desired â guestâ molecules. Surface pressure-area isotherms of the (G)C18S, with and without guests, are characterized by the lift-off molecular areas and are use to determine the proper deposition surface pressure. â Host-guestâ Langmuir films are deposited onto silicon substrates using the LB deposition technique. The LB films were then subjected to stability testing using different solvents over increasing periods of time. Grazing-angle incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD), specular X-ray reflectivity (XRR) and transfer ratio measurements were used to characterize the crystallinity, film thickness, overall film stability and film coverage. The GIXD data revealed that the crystallinity of the deposited film varies with the â guestâ molecules and can be disrupted by the functional group on the â guestâ molecule through hydrogen bonding. After modeling the XRR data using StochFit, it was discovered that the more polar solvent, tetrahydrofuran (THF), removed the film completely while the nonpolar solvent, hexane, compacted the thin film and increased the electron density. With transfer ratios around 0.95 to 1.05, the deposited films were homogenous. The second method used was self-assembly monolayers, which differs from Langmuir films in that they are created by a spontaneous chemical synthesis from immersing a substrate into a solution containing an active surfactant. Octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) was used initially as a molecule to study the self-assembled monolayer procedure. To study a â host-guestâ self-assembled monolayer system, a compound is being synthesized from 9-bromoanthracene. This compound would already contain the cavity necessary for the inclusion of â guestâ molecules. The solution that contained OTS was composed of a 4:1 mixture of anhydrous octadecane: chloroform. Silicon substrates with a deposited oxide layer were hydroxylated for the surfactant binding chemical reaction to occur. The OTS SAMs were exposed to the same stability tests as the LB films. Surface contact angle measurements were taken of the OTS SAMs before and after the stability tests. The contact angle prior to the stability tests was 110° (±2°). The contact angle after immersion in THF was 101° (±2°) while the contact angle resulting from immersion in hexane was 105° (±2°). From the contact angle measurements, the degradation of the OTS SAMs was less extensive than that of the (G)C18S LB films.

Abstract:
The deposition of Mn on to reconstructed InSb and GaAs surfaces has been studied by re ection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), atomic force microscopy and scanning tunnelling microscopy. On both Ga- and As-terminated GaAs(001), a Mn-induced (2x2) reconstruction is observed. In contrast, there are no well defined Mn-induced surface reconstructions on InSb. Islands are observed to form on all of the surfaces studied, with islands on the Group III-rich surfaces composed of elemental Mn and of an alloy on the Group V-rich surfaces. The conversion from Group III(V)-rich to Group V(III)-rich surfaces are discussed in terms of basic thermodynamic quantities and a number of models for surface atom substitution are proposed as pathways for MnAs and MnSb island formation. A high resolution X-ray diffraction study (HRXRD) has been performed on niccolite, cubic and wurtzite crystallites present within MnSb thin films grown on GaAs(111) substrates. It is observed that the lattice parameters of the polymorphs do not depend on the film thickness or the time-corrected beam ux ratio, J. The niccolite phase is found to relax rapidly (within 3 nm) and the average c lattice parameter of these films is 5.791(1) A. Variations in the c lattice parameter indicate that the average stoichiometry of the films varies on a per sample basis and this may act to promote the formation of polymorphs. Cubic MnSb crystallites exhibit a large strain dispersion of approximately 1 % and a rhombohedral or trigonal distortion is believed to be the origin. Quantitative analysis of asymmetric reciprocal space maps reveals that films grown using the optimised conditions have the highest concentration of the cubic polymorph, with lower values of J in the optimised range promoting this polymorph. The growth of MnSb on Ge(001) and Ge(111) substrates has been investigated. On Ge(001) growth proceeds through the formation of three dimensional islands and no dependence on the growth conditions is observed. Evidence for (1102) and (1120) crystallites is seen in XRD and RHEED, respectively. The interface between the MnSb islands and the Ge(001) substrate is sharp with no evidence for interfacial reactivity. The epitaxial growth of MnSb on Ge(111) is reported for the first time. The growth orientation is confirmed to be (0001) by X-ray diffraction while the layers are found to be ferromagnetic with a Curie temperature in excess of 300 K.

Abstract:
This thesis presents optical characterizations of interfaces in ferromagnetic heterostructures and thin films used for spin polarized electronic devices. In these experiments, femtosecond laser spectroscopies are exploited to investigate the interface magnetization reversal, spin precession, and band offset, which are crucial in determining the performances of spintronic devices.;First, magnetization-induced second-harmonic-generation (MSHG) is applied to study interface magnetism in a hybrid structure containing a noncentrosymmetric semiconductor---Fe/AlGaAs. The reversal process of Fe interface layer magnetization is compared with the bulk magnetization reversal. In Fe/AlGaAs (001), the interface magnetization is found to be decoupled from the bulk magnetization based on the different switching characteristics---single step switching occurs at the interface layer, whereas two-jump switching occurs in the bulk. In contrast, the interface layer in Fe/AlGaAs (110) is rigidly coupled with the bulk Fe, indicating a strong impact of electronic structure on the magnetic interaction despite the same chemical composition. Furthermore, a time-resolved MSHG study demonstrates a coherent interface magnetization precession in Fe/AlGaAs (001), implying the feasibility of fast precessional control of interfacial spin. The interface magnetization precession exhibits a higher frequency and opposite phase for a given applied field compared to the bulk magnetization precession.;Second, uniform magnetization precession in the Lac0.67Ca 0.33MnO3 (LCMO) and La0.67Sr0.33MnO 3 (LSMO) films grown on different substrates are investigated by time-resolved magneto-optic Kerr effect. The parameters of magnetic anisotropy are determined from the field dependence of the precession frequency. The strain-free LCMO films grown on NdGaO3 exhibit a uniaxial in-plane anisotropy induced by the tilting of the oxygen octahedra in NdGaO3 An easy-plane magnetic anisotropy is found in the tensile-strained films grown on SrTiO 3, whereas the compressive-strained film grown on LaAlO3 exhibits an easy normal-to-plane axis.;Third, a table-top internal photoemission system is developed to measure the band offsets across semiconductor heterointerfaces by utilizing an optical parametric amplifier as the bright light source. The conduction band offsets DeltaE c = 660 meV and 530 meV at the CdCr2Se4-GaAs and CdCrZSe4-ZnSe interfaces are determined from the threshold energies of the photocurrent spectrum. The band offset is shown to be reduced by engineering the interface bonding and stoichiometry.

Abstract:
We present the design and fabrication of a microchip capable of performing mechanical (tensile, fracture, fatigue), electrical (conductivity and band gap) and thermal (conductivity and specific heat) characterization of materials and interfaces. The chip can study thin films and wires of any material that can be deposited on a substrate or study thin coupons if the specimen is in bulk form. The 3 mm × 3 mm size of the chip results in the unique capability of in-situ testing in analytical chambers such as the transmission electron microscope. The basic concept is to ’see’ the micro-mechanisms while ‘measuring’ the deformation and transport properties of materials and interfaces. The advantage of such simultaneous acquisition of quantitative and qualitative data is the accurate and quick physics-based modeling of materials behavior. We present preliminary studies on multi-physics, or the coupling among mechanical thermal and electrical domains in materials will be presented. These results are particularly important when the specimen dimension becomes comparable to the mean free paths of electron and phonons.

Abstract:
Crystalline films grown epitaxially on a substrate consisting of a different crystalline material are of considerable interest in optoelectronic devices and the semiconductor industry. The film and substrate have in general different lattice parameters. This lattice mismatch affects the quality of interfaces and can lead to very high densities of misfit dislocations. Here we study the evolution of these misfit dislocations in a single crystal thin film. In particular, we consider the motion of a dislocation gliding on its slip plane within the film and its interaction with multiple obstacles and sources. Our results show the effect of obstacles such as precipitates and other dislocations on the evolution of a threading dislocation in a metallic thin film. We also show that the material becomes harder as the film thickness decreases in excellent agreement with experiments.
