Abstrakt: Cross-plane thermal conductivity of 800, 458, and 110 nm erbium-doped crystalline yttria (Er+3:Y2O3) films deposited via atomic layer deposition was measured using the 3ω method at room temperature. Thermal conductivity results show 16-fold increase in thermal conductivity from 0.49 W m-1K-1 to 8 W m-1K-1 upon post deposition annealing, partially due to the suppression of the number of the -OH/H2O bonds in the films after annealing. Thermal conductivity of the annealed film was ∼70% lower than undoped bulk single crystal yttria. The cumulative interface thermal resistivity of substrate-Er+3:Y2O3-metal heater was determined to be ∼2.5 × 10-8 m2 K/W. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
