Abstract

A new ternary BOxNy crystal was grown on Si(100) substrate at 500°C by low-frequency (100 kHz) radio-frequency (rf) derived plasma-assisted MOCVD with an organoborate precursor. The as-grown deposits were characterized by SEM, TED, XPS, XRD, AFM and FT-IR. The experimental results showed that BOxNy crystal was apt to be formed at N-rich atmosphere and high temperature. The decrease of hydrogen flux in fed gases was of benefit to form BON crystal structure. The crystal structure of BOxNy was as similar to that of H3BO 3 in this study.
