| الوصف: | In this contribution, we investigated the properties of magnetron-sputtered TiN thin films on sapphire and quartz substrates before and after 5 MeV electron irradiation with a fluence of 7 × 10 13 e/cm 2 . Structural, morphological, optical, and electrical properties were analyzed to observe the impact of electron irradiation on the TiN thin films. The results showed improved electrical properties of the TiN thin films due to high-energy electron irradiation, resulting in increased specific conductivity compared to the as-deposited thin films on both sapphire and quartz substrates. The structural features of the TiN thin films on the sapphire substrate transformed from polycrystalline to amorphous, while the TiN thin films deposited on the quartz substrate remained unchanged. Chemical state analysis indicated changes in the metallic bonding between Ti and N in the deposited TiN on the sapphire substrate, while TiN deposited on the quartz substrate retained its Ti–N bonding. This study provides insights into the effects of electron irradiation on TiN thin films, emphasizing the importance of investigating radiation resistance for the reliable operation of optoelectronic devices and photovoltaic systems in extreme ionizing radiation environments. |
