Abstract

Plasma-deposited zinc oxide films were studied and it was established that oxide molecules may form and their clusters nucleate within a recombination burning zone in the volume of plasma, provided that the ion range does not exceed the size of a discharge chamber. The nucleation zone is rather narrow and its position depends on the gas pressure in the chamber. The zinc oxide films grown in this zone possess a texture with small misorientation angle and are characterized by small thickness of the nucleation texture and high piezoelectric activity.
