摘要
Transparent films of Fe-doped indium tin oxide (ITO) were grown at oxygen pressures of 5, 1, 10(-1), 10(-2), and 10(-3) Pa on yttria-stabilized zirconia (001) substrates by a pulsed-laser deposition method. We observed X-ray diffraction peaks from (00h) planes of In2O3 crystalline phase for the films. The films grown at 5 and 1 Pa were paramagnetic and semiconducting, that at 10(-1) Pa was ferromagnetic and semiconducting, and those at 10(-2) and 10(-3) Pa were ferromagnetic and metallic. The Fe-ITO films grown below 10(-1) Pa exhibited room-temperature (RT) ferromagnetism. Nanoscale Fe clusters in the highest oxidation state such as y-Fe2O3 resulted in the RT ferromagnetism.
