====TiO<sub>2</sub> deposition rates====


In the graphs below the TiO<sub>2</sub> thickness as function of the number of cycles for deposition temperatures between 150 <sup>o</sup>C and 350 <sup>o</sup>C can be seen. From the equations the number of cycles required for a certain thickess to be deposited can be calculated. All results have been obtained for Si wafers with native oxide.

====TiO<sub>2</sub> results====


Some some SEM images of TiO<sub>2</sub> deposited on a Si surface at different temperatures between 150 <sup>o</sup>C and 350 <sup>o</sup>C are shown below. Some of samples have been treated with HF (hydrofluoric acid) to remove the native oxide layer just before the ALD deposition.

Below some SEM images of amorphous TiO<sub>2</sub> deposited at 120 <sup>o</sup>C on Si trenches are shown. The width of the trenches is 200 nm, and the depth is 4 µm, i.e. the aspect ratio is 1:20. The number of cycles is 500, and this results in a TiO<sub>2</sub> layer of about 25 nm. From the SEM images it is seen that the TiO<sub>2</sub> layer covers the trenches very well.

Below some SEM images of anatase TiO<sub>2</sub> deposited at 300 <sup>o</sup>C on Si trenches are shown. The width of the trenches is 200 nm, and the depth is 4 µm, i.e. the aspect ratio is 1:20. The number of cycles is 500, and this results in a TiO<sub>2</sub> layer of about 26 nm. From the SEM images it is seen that the TiO<sub>2</sub> layer covers the trenches very well.
