Abstract
⺠We investigate the effects of humidity of carrier gas and UV-assistance on the structure and optical properties of Er:Y2O3 films on as-deposited and post-deposition annealed films. ⺠The as-deposited Er:Y2O3 films under high air humidity and with UV-assistance, present a very low organic contamination and have the cubic structure of Y2O3. ⺠After annealing at 800 °C, two phases coexist in the films, cubic and monoclinic yttria structure. ⺠We study the Er+3 luminescence in the visible and IR regions.
