Growth of zinc sulfide thin films on (100)Si with the successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method studied by atomic force microscopy

Synthesis and characterization of metal sulfide clusters for toxicological studies

“…The finding that metal sulfide clusters adsorb to a variety of materials is consistent with studies on the adsorption of colloidal ZnS and thin films of ZnS onto substrates such as glass and silicon [20–22]. At concentration ranges relevant to environmental metal concentrations, problems have been reported with the storage of soft metals in sulfide‐containing waters.…”

“…Thus, the name ''Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction (SILAR)'' was ascribed to this chemical deposition technique. Other research groups adapted this technique in due course [15][16][17]. Subsequently, this technique has been employed for deposit- ing thin films of Al:ZnO [19].…”

Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction (SILAR) and Related Sequential Solution‐Phase Deposition Techniques

“…On silicon, the growth rate was much lower, 0.02 nm/cycle, at the beginning of the growth process. 17 The growth rate on polymer surfaces, 0.16 nm/cycle, was higher than on glass. 59,60 Complexing the zinc precursor has been shown to increase the growth rate of ZnS.…”

“…8.4 ). 17 Atomic force microscopy has also been applied to study the development of PbS fi lm morphology on a glass substrate. 10,14 The rms roughness increased rapidly during the fi rst cycles.…”
