SUMMARY:Katrīnas Laganovskas promocijas darba priekšaizstāvēšana
DESCRIPTION:Grāda pretendentes Katrīnas Laganovskas promocijas darba “Defects and optical properties of undoped and rare-earth doped HfO2/ZrO2” priekšaizstāvēšana notiks 8. novembrī plkst. 13.00 LU CFI Konferenču zālē.\n\nBecause of its desirable features such as a broad band gap and a high-k value\, hafnia has become a popular choice among high dielectric gate materials for CMOS applications. Hafnia has a high heat of formation as well as excellent chemical compatibility with silicon\, in addition being chemically and thermally stable.\nHowever\, compared to SiO2\, HfO2 has a higher defect concentration\, resulting in a higher density of charge traps\, transient instability of the gate threshold voltage\, coulomb scattering of carriers in the substrate channel\, and source-level voltage instability. Although HfO2 has already been successfully used in large scale manufacturing as a high-k metal gate material\, the intrinsic defects still present a significant challenge.\nTherefore the aim of this work is to study defects in HfO2 and ZrO2 using intrinsic defect luminescence\, thermostimulated luminescence and rare-earth ion luminescent probes.\nThis work presents a study on the impact of the phase of the material on the luminescent properties as well as rare-earth ion incorporation mechanisms in HfO2 and ZrO2. Furthermore\, using thermostimulated luminescence\, VO3+1\, VO3+2 and VO4+1+VO4+2 defects are identified in undoped HfO2.\nTheses:\n 	The distribution and concentration of oxygen vacancies determine the resulting rare-earth ion luminescence rather than the surrounding crystal symmetry 	Rare-earth ion luminescence can be used to control the sintering processes in ceramics 	VO3+1\, VO3+2 and VO4+1+VO4+2 defects were identified in monoclinic HfO2 using thermostimulated luminescence 	In monoclinic HfO2\, Eu3+ ions  incorporate in pairs as well as single ions\, creating VO3+2 and VO3+1 oxygen vacancies.
