Abstract

In order to explore the effects of Ti doping on the optical and mechanical properties of Ta2O5 coatings prepared by Ar/N2-Ar co-sputtering, Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings were prepared on the glass substrate surface by radio frequency and direct current magnetron co-sputtering techniques. The microstructures and surface morphologies of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and atomic force microscope (AFM). The optical parameters of the coatings were tested by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. The hardness and Young's modulus of the coatings were tested by nanoindentation. XRD test results show that the Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings mainly consist of amorphous phase structure with Ta2O5 as the main body. SEM and AFM results show that the coatings deposited on the glass substrate do not have extensive voids. The sputtered particles are uniformly piled and grow on the substrate surface. The coating thicknesses are basically the same and the thickness error is within 5%. The separate introduction of N2, Ti, and N2-Ti co-doping can reduce the roughness of Ta2O5 coatings. The optical test results show that the separate introduction of N2 and Ti element can increase the average transmittance of Ta2O5 coatings to more than 81%, whereas the average transmittance of N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings prepared by N2-Ti co-doping reduces. Mechanical test results show that compared with that of Ta2O5 coating, the hardness of N2-Ta2O5 and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings increases significantly. The hardness of Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is basically the same. The elasticity index (H/E) and plasticity index (H3/E2) indicate that the N2-Ta2O5 and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings possess better fracture toughness and plastic deformation resistance. The preparation of N2- and Ti-doped Ta2O5 coatings on glass surface can obtain the multifunctional coatings with both excellent optical and mechanical properties, which is represented by N2-Ta2O5 and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings.

Optical coatings are important optical materials with high transparency in the visible range and high reflectivity in the infrared range[

1–2]. The unique characteristics of optical coatings lead to their distinctive types of films among the functional coating materials. With the rapid development of optoelectronic and semiconductor technologies, the demand for high-performance optical films and optical devices is increasing. Therefore, optical coatings and optical devices with superior performance attract much attention in academic research and engineering applications[3–6]. Metal oxides are ideal candidates for the design and manufacture of protective coatings for optical devices. The most representative Ta-based oxide has become the research hotspot in various fields[7–8]. Due to their good optical properties, thermal stability[9], chemical stability[10], and high refractive index in the visible and near-infrared region[11], Ta2O5 coatings attract much attention and have been widely used as high-performance materials in the fields of semiconductors, data storage systems, and optical devices[10,12].

Chen et al[

3] studied the optical properties, such as refractive index, extinction coefficient, thickness, and optical direct and indirect bandgap, of Ta2O5 coatings prepared by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. Bright et al[13] used reactive magnetron sputtering to deposit Ta2O5 coatings with various thicknesses on Si substrates, and determined the optical constants of Ta2O5 coatings in a wide spectral range from visible range to far-infrared range. Chen et al[14] investigated the effect of Ar/O on the properties of Ta2O5 coatings as the ion-conducting layers for all-solid-state electrochromic devices. Sertel et al[15] deposited Ta2O5 coatings on Corning glass, Si, GaAs, and Ge substrates by RF magnetron sputtering. The effects of thermal annealing on the structural, optical, and morphological properties of Ta2O5 coatings have been investigated and the antireflective properties of the coatings are also widely discussed. Reports show that the coatings deposited on the substrates have uniform distribution of Ta and O elements during the growth process. The optimal transmittance and antireflective properties can be obtained by annealing at 500 °C, and the obtained product can be used as an antireflective layer for optical and photovoltaic applications. In addition to the abovementioned optical properties, Ta2O5 has good mechanical properties, such as fine wear resistance and high hardness, which can be used as a protective coating[16–17]. Ding et al[18] studied the excellent biocompatibility, high corrosion resistance, and good wear resistance of Ta2O5 ceramic coatings. Single- and multi-layer Ta2O5 coatings can be prepared on Ti-6Al-4V alloys by magnetron sputtering technique. The microstructure, chemical composition, residual thermal stress, adhesion strength, mechanical properties, tribological behavior, and corrosion resistance of the coatings have been studied. Karbay et al[19] deposited Ta2O5 coating on the glass substrate by sol-gel method. In the ring-to-ring bending test, it is found that the ultimate strength of the glass substrate coated by Ta2O5 increases by nearly three times, and the coating shows excellent friction resistance. Generally, the research on Ta2O5 coatings mainly focuses on the optical or mechanical properties under specific working conditions. Ta2O5 coatings with both excellent optical properties and good mechanical properties are rarely discussed.

In this research, RF and direct current (DC) magnetron co-sputtering techniques were used to investigate the effects of Ar/N2-Ar co-sputtering Ti doping on the microstructure, optical properties, and mechanical properties of Ta2O5 coatings. This research promotes the development of multifunctional coatings with both excellent optical performance parameters and good mechanical properties.

1 Experiment

Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings were prepared by JGP045CA multi-target sputtering system. The substrate materials are high transparent quartz glass and N<111>Si wafers. The substrates were ultrasonically cleaned by acetone, anhydrous ethanol, and deionised water for 15 min before deposition, and then dried with high purity N2 before placement in the sputtering chamber. The vacuum in the sputtering chamber was pumped to 5×10-4 Pa, and the deposition pressure was 0.8 Pa. Ar gas was the working gas (99.999% purity) with the flow rate of 40 mL/min. N2 was the mixed gas (99.999% purity) with the flow rate of 20 mL/min. The target was Ta2O5 and metal Ti (99.99% purity), and the distance between the target and the substrate was 80 mm. In order to obtain a clean target surface, the target needs to be pre-sputtered for 10 min by glow discharge. The deposition temperature was room temperature and the deposition dura-tion was 40 min. During the deposition process, the substrate temperature increased due to ion bombardment (<45 °C). Table 1 shows the deposition parameters of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings.

N2-Ti-Ta2O5 120 60 20 561.5

The phase structure and surface morphology of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD, XRD-Max2500, Rigaku, Japan) was used to analyze the phase structure of the coatings with different components at the scanning angle of 5° under 50 kV, 150 mA, and Cu Kα radiation. The scanning range was 10°–90°. The surface and cross-section morphologies of the coating were obtained by scanning electron microscope (SEM, Zeiss Sigma 300), and the cross-sectional thickness of the coating was measured. The energy spectrum and element distribution of the coating surface were obtained by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS, Smart EDX). The surface morphology of the coating was also studied by atomic force microscope (AFM, Bruker Dimension Icon), and the surface roughness (Ra) of the coating was obtained.

The transmission spectrum of the coating was obtained by ultraviolet (UV)-visible spectrophotometer (Shimadzu UV-2700) with the step of 0.5 nm in the wavelength range of 220–850 nm. The optical parameters, such as reflectivity, absorbance, and optical band gap, of the coatings were obtained by spectral inversion fitting. The hardness and elastic modulus of the coatings were obtained by applying the load of 25 mN through nanoindentation tester (ZDT075-07).

2 Results and Discussion

2.1 Coating phase

Fig.1 shows XRD patterns of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. It can be seen that the Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings show the hill-like diffraction peaks at 2θ=23.81°, 24.37°, 24.59°, and 24.79°, respectively. The coatings mainly exhibit the diffraction peaks of amorphous SiO2, indicating that the prepared coating sample does not crystallize and has an amorphous structure. The appearance of hill-like diffraction peaks is due to the thinness of the prepared coatings. During XRD scanning, the noise of the glass substrate seriously affects the test results[

20]. Because the substrate is not heated or biased during the deposition of coating, the sputtered particles reach the substrate with weak energy and low mobility. The adsorbed atoms can only coalesce in the vicinity of the contacting substrate without dispersing, resulting in the phenomenon that the particles cannot be orderly arranged to form a crystal structure during the deposition process.

2.2 Coating surface morphology

Fig.2 shows SEM surface and cross-section morphologies of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. It can be seen that the coatings deposited on the glass substrate do not have large voids. It is inferred that the sputtered particles grow uniformly and are stacked on the substrate surface, but large agglomerated particles appear on all the coating surfaces. This may be because the sputtered particles are not yet evenly spread out after reaching the substrate, and then they are covered by the particles deposited by subsequent sputtering and gradually piled up. Fig.2e shows the cross-section morphology of Ta2O5 coating. It can be seen that the sputtered particles are tightly packed during the coating growth without large cracks. Ta2O5 coatings are fully adhered to the substrate. The cross-section morphology of N2-Ta2O5 coating (Fig.2f) shows that the coating deposited in N2-Ar mixed gas atmosphere has irregular cracks during the growth process. The cross-section morphology of Ti-Ta2O5 coating (Fig.2g) shows that due to the doping of Ti element in the preparation process, the Ti-Ta2O5 coating grows in columnar structure during the deposition process. According to the cross-section morphology of N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating in Fig.2h, it is found that the columnar structure of N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating becomes blurred, compared with that of Ti-Ta2O5 coating, which is accompanied by the accumulation of particles, but no cracks appear. After Ti doping, the number of agglomerated particles on the coating surface decreases significantly, indicating that the doping of Ti element can improve the surface structure of coatings.

Fig.3 shows 3D-AFM images of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. The scanning range of the coatings is 3 μm×3 μm. It can be seen that although the difference between Ra and root mean square (RMS) value of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is obvious, they all remain at the nanometer level. Fig.3a shows that the Ta2O5 coating has the largest Ra and RMS values, which are 1.28 and 1.62 nm, respectively. Through the analysis of Fig.3b and 3c, it is found that Ti element is doped in N2-Ar mixed gas atmosphere. The Ra and RMS values of the N2-Ta2O5 coating decrease, which are 0.355 and 0.473, respectively. Similarly, the Ra and RMS values of Ti-Ta2O5 coating also decrease to 1.05 and 1.36 nm, respectively. Fig.3d shows that on the basis of N2-Ta2O5 and Ti-Ta2O5 coatings, Ti element is doped after N2 is introduced. The Ra and RMS values of N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating further reduce to 0.266 and 0.554 nm, respectively. Peaks also appear in the 3D-AFM images of the coatings, which correspond to the appearance of agglomerated particles. Therefore, Ti element is doped in Ar/N2-Ar atmosphere during the preparation of Ta2O5 coating. The coating surface becomes smoother, thereby improving the coating flatness, which is beneficial to the optical properties of coatings.

2.3 Optical properties

In order to study the effect of doping elements on the optical properties of Ta2O5 coatings, the coating transmittance was measured by UV-visible spectrophotometer in the wavelength range of 220–850 nm. Fig.4 shows the transmittance of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. In order to eliminate the influence of coating thickness on transmittance, the deposition thickness of the coating is designed as 560 nm. Fig.2 shows that the thickness of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is approximately 574.6, 557.2, 581.3, and 561.5 nm, respectively, and the thickness error is within 5%. As shown in Fig.4, the transmittance of Ta2O5 coating is correlated with the introduction of the doping Ti and N2. In the wavelength range of 300–850 nm, it can be observed that all the coatings show high transparency. Intensive deep UV absorption occurs in the UV spectral region (220–300 nm)[

21]. The transmittance of the coatings is gradually increased with the introduction of N2 and doping Ti. It can be inferred that the transmittance of optical coatings is related to the refractive index, surface roughness, and structural morphology[22]. The average transmittance of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings at the wavelength of 300–850 nm is 77.25%, 86.33%, 81.46%, and 76.56%, respectively. The average transmittance of Ti-Ta2O5 and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is more than 81%, and the maximum transmittance is more than 93%. The variation of coating trans- mittance is consistent with the variation of coating rough-ness. However, the average transmittance of the N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating is abnormally low, which may be related to the increase in the denseness of the surface structure of the coatings. This is because the loose surface structure and small roughness of the coating are beneficial to the light transmission. Table 2 shows the average and maximum transmittance of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings.

Band gap energy (Eg) can directly affect the electronic band structure of materials and the performance of devices, which is an important parameter to characterize semiconductor materials. In order to evaluate the optical band gap of the coatings, the absorption coefficient (k) of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings was calculated through the transmittance results of the coatings, and the results are shown in Fig.5. Based on the variation of the absorption coefficient as a function of photon energy, the Eg value of the coatings can be obtained by the Tauc relation[

23], as follows:

(αhv)n=C(hv-Eg) (1)
α=-ln(T)/d (2)

where h is Planck constant, v is the frequency of the incident photon, α is the absorption coefficient, n is a parameter related to the condition, C is a constant related to the material, d is the thickness of the film, and T is the transmittance of the film. Because Ta2O5 is a direct band gap material and the main part of the coatings, Ti is the doping element, and N2 is the induced gas, n=2.

Fig.6 shows the optical band gap energy (Eg) of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. The optical band gap energy of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings deposited on the glass substrates is 4.45, 4.64, 4.54, and 4.57 eV, respectively. The optical band gap energy of the Ta2O5 coating increases slightly after the introduction of N2 and Ti element, and the blueshift phenomenon occurs. This phenomenon may be related to the influence of O 1s orbital on the valence band in the host Ta2O5 coating. Ta 4f dominates as the conduction band. After the introduction of Ti ions, the Ta2O5 oxide is affected by the hybridization of the Ti d orbitals, resulting in a wider band gap spacing.

2.4 Mechanical properties

Fig.7 shows the hardness (H), elastic modulus (E), elasticity index (H/E), and plasticity index (H3/E2) results of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. Fig.7a shows that the hardness of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is 8.451, 12.371, 8.634, and 12.363 GPa, respectively. The elastic modulus of the coatings is 107.1, 108.3, 151.4, and 173.6 GPa, respectively. The hardness of the coatings increases significantly after the introduction of N2, and the elastic modulus increases slightly. After doping Ti element, the hardness of the coatings increases slightly, but the elastic modulus increases significantly. The hardness and elastic modulus of the coatings obtained under Ti doping condition in N2-Ar atmosphere significantly increase, compared with those of Ta2O5 coatings. It can be inferred that the N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating possesses the advantages of both N2-Ta2O5 and Ti-Ta2O5 coatings, which may be related to the structural optimization of the coating deposition process.

Fig.7  Hardness and elastic modulus (a) as well as elasticity index and plasticity index results (b) of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings

Fig.7b shows the elasticity index (H/E) and plasticity index (H3/E2) of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings. The elasticity index is commonly used to evaluate the energy absorption ability through elasticity of material surface. The higher the elasticity index, the greater the deformation ability under load[

24–25]. The plasticity index expresses the plastic deformation resistance of material, and it is commonly used to simply describe the fracture toughness of solid coatings[26]. The higher the H3/E2 value, the more difficult the plastic deformation occurring along the shear force direction when the coating is subjected to load. The elasticity indices (H/E) of Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O coatings are 0.078, 0.114, 0.057, and 0.071, respectively. The plasticity indices (H3/E2) of the coatings are 0.0526, 0.1620, 0.0280, and 0.0627, respectively. The variation trends of H/E and H3/E2 are quite different from those of the hardness or elastic modulus of the coatings. The H/E and H3/E2 values of the N2-Ta2O5 coating are the largest. On the contrary, the H/E and H3/E2 values of Ti-Ta2O5 coating are the smallest. For the N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings, the values of H/E and H3/E2 are between H/E and H3/E2 for Ta2O5 and N2-Ta2O5 coatings. Compared with N2-Ta2O5 coating, the decrease in H/E and H3/E2 values of Ti-Ta2O5 coating indicates that the fracture toughness and plastic deformation resistance of the coating are reduced.

3 Conclusions

1) Ta2O5, N2-Ta2O5, Ti-Ta2O5, and N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coatings all have amorphous phase structure, which mainly consists of Ta2O5. With the introduction of N2 and doping Ti, the agglomerated particles on the coating surface are significantly reduced. The coatings become flat and smooth, and the surface roughness reduces.

2) With the introduction of N2 and doping Ti, the transmittance of N2-Ta2O5 and Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is increased. The average transmittance of N2-Ta2O5 and Ti-Ta2O5 coatings is more than 81%, and the maximum transmittance is more than 93%. The average transmittance of N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating is slightly lower than that of Ta2O5 coating. The introduction of N2 and doping Ti result in the blueshift phenomenon of the coatings and the increase in band gap energy.

3) The hardness of N2-Ta2O5 coating increases significantly, but the elastic modulus is basically the same as that of the Ta2O5 coating. The hardness of Ti-Ta2O5 coating is basically the same as that of Ta2O5 coating, but its elastic modulus increases significantly. The hardness and elastic modulus of N2-Ti-Ta2O5 coating increase obviously. Comparatively, the N2-Ta2O5 coating has better fracture toughness and plastic deformation resistance.
