Description
Technical Field
The invention particularly relates to a hole type SrTiO 3 A material, a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of micro-nano manufacturing.
Background
Strontium titanate (SrTiO) 3 STO for short), is a typical perovskite structure material, has better lattice matching degree with a plurality of high-temperature superconducting materials, and has the advantages of high dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, good thermal stability and the like; meanwhile, the STO has a higher band gap width as a functional material, so that the STO is the most widely used substrate material at present in the field of growth of high-temperature superconducting films; however, STO also has disadvantages: the energy gap of 3.2eV makes STO an insulating material at room temperature, a property that limits its application in many fields. To overcome this drawback, attempts have been made to modify the STO by doping.
The ideal STO crystal belongs to a cubic crystal system and is a space group Pm3m. In STO, the cation Sr with the larger radius 2+ The cation Ti occupying 8 vertex positions of the cubic unit cell and having a smaller radius 4+ At the body center of the unit cell, anion O 2- Is located in the center of the face. When the impurity ions enter the STO material, if the ionic radius and electronegativity of the impurity ions are equal to Sr 2+ And Ti 4+ Close then these impurity ions may be in the apical position (Sr) 2+ ) Or body center position (Ti) 4+ ) Substitution occurs.
The metal ion doping can be divided into n-type doping and p-type doping, wherein the n-type doping means that the number of electrons of the substituted ions is larger than that of the substituted ions, the substituted ions enter a unit cell, redundant electrons are released, and ionized immovable positive charge centers are formed; such as Pr for Sr and Nb for Ti. There are two main theories on the doping of STO n-type at present: one is the electrovalence compensation theory, which considers that the free electrons generated by the substitution of the high valence ions are replaced by Ti 4+ Trapped to form Ti 4+ .e - (ii) a The second is oxygen volatilization theory, which considers that the doping of high valence ions causes Sr vacancy V Sr Sr vacancy weakens adjacent Ti-O chemical bond, promotes volatilization of crystal oxygen, forms oxygen vacancy, ionizes oxygen vacancy to generate free electrons, and when the number of doping ions is larger, oxygen volatilization theory plays a leading role, and n-type doping can easily improve the electrical conductivity of STO from semiconductor to 10 -4 Omega cm, up to the metal range.
p-type doping often incorporates a small amount of metal ions with atomic radius close to that of Ti or Sr, whose atomic valence is not easily changed, into STO, and the incorporated metal ions need to satisfy the condition that the number of electrons is smaller than that of the substituted ions. According to the requirements of similar ionic radius and electronegativity, the general Ag + 、Ni + 、Li + 、Mn 2+ 、Zn 2+ Etc. may replace the Sr position; fe 3+ 、Al 3+ 、Cu 2+ Etc. will replace the Ti site. These substitutional ions form an effective p-type doping in the STO.
Most of the STO materials commercially available at present are Nb-doped and n-type doped, and the STO (100) material doped with n-type is generally processed by heating to 1000 ℃ with direct current and maintaining for 1h, so as to obtain the conductive material and the atomically flat step required for film growth, the STO processing method is heat treatment under a non-oxygen atmosphere, and the processing condition can make oxygen in the STO escape to form 1 oxygen vacancy and 2 free electrons, and the reaction equation is as follows:
electrons are free to move between different Ti ions, which results in dielectric loss and leakage current, and thus, in practical applications, the intrinsic STO is also treated by p-type doping.
Currently, the commonly used p-type is doped with Fe 3+ 、Mn 2+ When metal ions are subjected to plasma treatment, electrons in the doped STO can move to a heterojunction interface and are captured by the doped metal ions, a space charge region, namely a PN junction, is formed at the interface, the STO is changed into hole doping, and the Fermi surface moves to a low-energy level, so that the problems of dielectric loss and leakage current of the STO are effectively solved.
As described above, it is necessary to perform effective p-type doping of the STO single crystal, regardless of whether the surface properties of the STO itself or the relationship between the STO as a substrate and an epitaxially grown thin film are studied, although Fe is used 3+ Good results can be obtained by p-type doping of STO by plasma ions, but in molecular beam epitaxy, STO is one of the most commonly used substrates, and the substrate is generally required to be heated to a high temperature, but as the temperature of the STO substrate increases, because of Fe 3+ The oxygen vacancy formed by doping is disabled, and the resistance change of the STO is closely related to the migration of the oxygen vacancy.

Example 1
Referring to fig. 1, in some more specific embodiments, a commercially available STO material (i.e., n-type doped SrTiO) 3 Material SrTiO doped with Nb in this example 3 Single crystal (100) as an example) process for forming a high temperature stable p-type material includes the steps of:
s1, sample loading: wearing dust-free gloves, wearing a mask, and cleaning the tweezers and the sample rack with alcohol; commercial use of tweezers to orient in the (100) directionNb doped SrTiO of 3 Fixing a single crystal (100) (with the size of 10 x 2 x 0.5mm, purchased from combined fertilizer crystal materials Co., ltd., hereinafter referred to as a sample) in the middle of a direct current sample rack (which can be purchased as an existing sample rack) to ensure that the sample rack and the sample are not polluted by dust, grease and the like, respectively measuring the resistance at two ends of the sample by using a universal meter after the sample is loaded, and determining that the resistance is basically consistent;
s2, degassing: transferring the sample into an ultrahigh vacuum chamber equipped with a DC heating stage and an infrared thermometer, setting the emission coefficient of the infrared thermometer to 0.8 (according to the query data, the heat reflectivity of STO single crystal is 0.8, and the emission coefficient of the infrared thermometer is 0.8, so as to observe the temperature of STO single crystal at any time, fine-tune the current, observe the vacuum degree change in the ultrahigh vacuum chamber), and maintain the vacuum degree to 1 × 10 -9 mbar, heating the sample to 500 ℃ by adopting a direct current heating mode, keeping the temperature for 40min to fully degas, and basically completely desorbing water molecules, gas molecules and the like adsorbed in the atmosphere on the surface of the sample after the degassing is finished so as to obtain a clean surface;
s3, se treatment: slowly increasing the current, still adopting a direct current heating mode to heat the sample to 1000 ℃, and keeping the temperature for 20min; heating a Se evaporation source to 100 ℃ by adopting a molecular beam epitaxy growth (MBE) system to obtain Se atmosphere, and keeping the Se atmosphere for 40min to realize the aim of adjusting the temperature of the SrTiO 3 Se treatment of the material;
after the Se evaporation source is turned off, the vacuum degree in the ultrahigh vacuum cavity is adjusted to be 5 multiplied by 10 -10 mbar, annealing the sample at 1000 ℃ for 30min to remove Se adsorbed on the surface of the sample, wherein in the process, se treatment enables atoms on the surface of the sample to be sufficiently migrated to form an atomically flat reconstructed surface;
s4, sr treatment: after Se treatment is finished, current is finely adjusted, a sample is heated to 900 ℃ by adopting a direct current heating mode, a Sr evaporation source is heated to 200 ℃ by adopting a Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) system, a Sr atmosphere is obtained and kept for 10min, and the SrTiO is subjected to 3 Sr treatment of the material, thereby obtaining a p-type STO (100) material;
and S5, taking the p-type STO (100) material as a substrate, and growing a FeTe thin film on the p-type STO (100) substrate, wherein the growth conditions of the FeTe thin film can adopt process parameters known by a person skilled in the art.
The obtained p-type STO (100) material is subjected to STM and transport tests, the test results are respectively shown in FIGS. 2-4, the hole conductivity of the Sr-treated STO is only shown at low temperature, so all the tested data are also obtained by testing at the temperature of liquid helium, wherein the scanning conditions of the STM test are as follows: 1.5V,50pA, 500X 500nm 2 FIG. 2 shows the surface STM topography of the p-type STO material after Sr treatment, and it can be seen from FIG. 2 that the surface of the p-type STO material has steps and is atomically flat; FIG. 3 is an R-T curve for n-type STO material and p-type STO material before and after Sr treatment: the curve of FIG. 3 shows that the STO treated by Sr has obvious resistance upwarping phenomenon at low temperature, the inset is detail enlargement of the transition part, and the transition temperature is Tf-145K; FIG. 4 is the Hall test temperature change curves of n-type STO material and p-type STO material before and after Sr treatment: it can be seen that the Sr treatment STO undergoes a transition from n-type conductivity (negative slope) to p-type conductivity (positive slope) at low temperatures, with the inset being an enlargement of the transition; therefore, the invention adopts Sr to treat the commercial STO material, and can obtain the hole type doping material with high-temperature stability.
When the STO is treated by Sr, the temperature of the STO is as high as 900-1000 ℃, a film grown on the STO subsequently cannot be heated to the high temperature, and Sr treated by Sr can stably exist on an STO substrate and form thermal stable hole doping; for example, when an FeTe thin film is grown on an Sr-treated STO substrate, the temperature of the STO substrate is about 300 ℃. Fig. 5 is a graph showing STS test of a FeTe thin film grown on a p-type STO material after Sr treatment, and it can be seen from the graph in fig. 5 that the FeTe grown after Sr treatment STO can have a significant forward direction shift, which shows that the Sr-STO substrate can still provide hole doping to the FeTe thin film after being heated, thereby demonstrating that the Sr-STO substrate obtained by the embodiment of the present invention has good thermal stability.
