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...
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 comprise integrated circuits and magnetic disks and that these stresses can cause deformation and fracture to occur. It is argued that the ...
Thin-film emission structures on the base of solid solutions LaxY11xB6 (x-0.09; 0.26; 0.45; 0.72; 0.79; 0.87). Thin films of 4-5 μm in thickness were obtained on the bases of leucosapphire with TiB2 coating of 0.6-08 μm in thickness preliminary applied by the electron-bean evapora...
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...

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...
Authoritative reference presents detailed coverage of formation, structure, optical properties, and uses of thin solid films, emphasizing causes of their unusual qualities. Topics include physical nature of thin films, methods for their measuring thickness, and effectiveness of alkaline and metallic thin ...
