Deposition of thin films via hydrothermal method has various advantages: low deposition temperature, high purity, deposition on a three-dimensional structure, and a large thickness. Although an epitaxial lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin-film deposition h ...
Organisation and heterogeneous photoreactivity of water-soluble zinc meso-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (ZnTPPC) were investigated at polarisable liquid / liquid interfaces by systematically varying the organic phase solvent. The remarkable affinity ...
When silicon thin films are deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition in a plasma regime close to powder formation, a new type of material, consisting of an amorphous matrix in which silicon nanocrystallites are embedded is obtained. This mate ...
Previous studies have shown the existence of a vertical micro-distribution of testate amoebae in the first centimeters of Sphagnum and their response to nutrient enrichment. In order to test the response of testate amoebae to depth and N addition in dry mo ...
We report the fabrication of high-finesse strongly coupled microcavities composed of a polystyrene film doped with the dye tetraphenyl-porphyrin zinc positioned between two high reflectivity dielectric mirrors. The bottom mirror was deposited by plasma enh ...
This paper summarizes the recent work on JET in the three areas of heating, current drive and energetic particles. The achievements have extended the possibilities of JET, have a direct connection to ITER operation and provide new and interesting physics. ...
Low pressure chemical vapour deposition (LP-CVD) ZnO as front transparent conductive oxide (TCO), developed at IMT, has excellent light-trapping properties for a-Si:H p-i-n single-junction and 'micromorph' (amorphous/microcrystalline silicon) tandem solar ...
During the last two decades, the Institute of Microtechnology (IMT) has contributed in two important fields to future thin-film silicon solar cell processing and design: (1) In 1987, IMT introduced the so-called "very high frequency glow discharge (VHF-GD) ...
A numerical two dimensional model to calculate the deposition uniformity over the whole electrode surface in large area rectangular plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition reactors is presented. In this model, the three dimensional mass and species cont ...
Oriented films of tetracene and pentacene have been obtained by high vacuum sublimation onto oriented poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) substrates. Polymorphism, orientation, and morphology of the pentacene and tetracene films are studied as a function of d ...
