Light Induced Chemical Vapour Deposition (LICVD) of titanium dioxide thin films is studied in this work. It is shown that this technique enables to deposit locally and selectively a chosen crystalline phase with a precise controlled thickness at low substr ...
In this paper, the RBS phenomenon is described and experimental results concerning Bragg reflectors and microcavities grown on silicon substrates by molecular beam epitaxy are presented. This spectroscopy is not sensitive to (i) the lateral fluctuation of ...
In the following, we report investigations of the dependencies of the structural, optical and electrical characteristics of InN thin films grown by MOCVD on the growth temperature. The layer thicknesses range from 70 to 400 nm. Their carrier concentrations ...
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 ...
Gradual clogging of the apertures of nanostencils used as miniature shadow masks in metal evaporations can be reduced by coating the stencil with self-assembled monolayers (SAM). This is quantified by the dimensions (height and volume) of gold features obt ...
Electron Beam Induced Deposition (EBID) allows deposition of three-dimensional micro- and nano-structures of conductive and insulating materials on a wide range of substrates. The process is based on the decomposition of molecules of a pre-selected precurs ...
Silicon and silicon nitride surfaces have been successfully terminated with carboxylic acid monolayers and investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM). On clean Si surface, AFM showed topographical variat ...
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 ...
The microstructural properties of Ag thick-film contacts on P diffused [100] Si wafers are investigated. By transmission electron microscopy, the contact interface is ound to be composed of mostly 100-500 nm sized Ag crystallites penetrating into the si on ...
Nanobacteria-like objects evidenced at the surface of the orthopy-roxenes of the Tataouine meteorite in South Tunisia have been studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopies. A method of micromanipulation has been developed to ensure that exac ...
