The properties of thin films are primarily determined by the type of chemical element or compound they comprise and by the film thickness. Their optical, electro-optical, electrical, and mechanical behavior is also determined by structure, microstructure, surface and interface morphology, chemical ...
Understanding the Properties of Thin Films Introduction Thin films are an important branch of material science that deals with the properties of materials in a thin film form. Thin films are used in various fields such as electronics, optics, and energy harvesting. In this article, we explore ...
EVERY one knows of the three states in which matter can exist—solid, fluid, and gas or vapour. Thin films of matter, familiar to all in the form of soap bubbles or lubricating films of oil, are no less than a fourth state, because, choose what physical constant we may, it will ...
The immensely varied problems of surface tension are examples of one kind: the phenomena of catalysis, of friction and lubrication are examples of other kinds.WILLIAM BRAGGNatureBragg, W. The Investigation of the Properties of Thin Films by Means of X-rays. Nature, 1925, 115(2886), 266-269...
Mechanical properties of thin films The mechanical properties of thin films on substrates are described and studied. It is shown that very large stresses may be present in the thin films that... F Spaepen - Mpi Für Mikrostrukturphysik, Halle, 6 Sept 被引量: 1523发表: 1989年 Mechanical ...
The refractive index of Sb 2O 3 thin films deposited on a variety of substrates at temperatures from 15° to 200°C is measured as a function of wavelength in the range 300–4000 nm. The clarity of the films and the values of the refractive index are correlated with the degree of orien...
The optical properties of thin films of intermetallic Au3Hf were experimentally investigated for the first time, which display significant negative ε′ in the visible and near infrared regions, hence are clearly plasmonic materials. In contrast to similar alloys, such as films of Au3Zr, the films...
Here, we conduct a comprehensive study of the effect of thickness, vanadium-doping and substrate choice on the crystal structure of MBE-grown (Bi, Sb)2−x V x Te3 thin films, and compare to existing results in the literature. We use high-resolution X-ray diffractometry (HRXRD) to deter...
