Abstract :
We report successful deposition of polycrystalline InN thin films on un-etched Si wafers, without nucleation buffer, by reactive RF magnetron sputtering in pure N2 atmosphere. The modification of the structural and morphological characteristics of InN films are presented, as function of deposition pressure and deposition temperature.
