Abstract

Chromium carbide thin films are synthesized on Si(100) substrates by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser deposition (PLD) method as parameters of methane gas pressure. Glancing-angle X-ray diffraction patterns show that the film prepared by PLD method is a polycrystalline thin film composed of Cr3C2and Cr7C3, even in the base pressure. Diffraction patterns, however, are depended on the methane gas pressure. Grain size of the prepared film increases with increasing methane gas pressure. One of the reasons of these phenomena may be considered to the phase reaction between the ablated species, such as Cr, CrCx and CH4gas in the plasma plume.
