In situ study of amorphous to crystalline transition in indium oxide thin films using transmission electron microscopy

  • 1. Univ. of Cambridge (United Kingdom). Cavendish Lab.

Description

The authors have studied reactively evaporated thin films of amorphous indium oxide by HREM and have attempted to observe the structural changes appearing during the course of crystallization as the films are irradiated with electron beams. Two kinds of process are observed for crystallization: (i) gradual ordering over the whole of the projected area leading to crystallization with no obvious nucleation event, and (ii) nucleation and growth process
