摘要:
In this paper, the influence of Sn doping (0%, 8% and 14%) on the crystallization of Ge2Sb2Te5 was studied with the aid of an ultraviolet laser. The XRD analyses revealed that the addition of Sn maintained the NaCl-type structure of Ge2Sb2Te5 after crystallization but expanded the lattice parameter due to the smaller atomic radii of Ge replaced by Sn. Raman peaks (123, 150 and 110 cm(-1)) moved towards lower wavenumbers (118, 137 and 104 cm(-1)), which can be explained by the remarkable decrease of the binding energy from Ge-Te to Sn-Te. A remarkable increase in optical contrast from 15% to 40% was observed in the Sn-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 film after crystallization with both the isothermal annealing and laser radiance. While the optical contrast changed little for a fixed volume fraction of Sn-doped sample with the variation of laser fluence which is attributed to the crystallization mechanism induced by laser under different fluences is the same.
