Popis: ZrO2-Al2O3 Bragg reflectors for future application in ZnO based resonators grown by pulsed laser deposition on c-plane sapphire and silicon substrates show a reflectivity up to 99.8% with a layer pair number of 12.5. Layer thicknesses obtained from standard ellipsometry agree very well with thicknesses observed by transmission scanning electron microscopy. A very smooth surface roughness of Ra = 0.5 nm was observed for these Bragg reflectors. ZnO thin films grown on bulk c-plane sapphire and on Bragg reflectors revealed comparable high photoluminescence intensity. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
