We report on a study of pentacene thin-films grown by high vacuum deposition on silicon dioxide, using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The nucleation density of pentacene islands on SiO2is found to rise ...
A flexible method for simultaneous nanoscale structures fabrication and patterning is described, using a combination of stencil mask and pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) techniques. A miniature shadow-mask with nano-apertures in a very thin microfabricated me ...
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 ...
A transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study using weak-beam imaging has been addressed in order to assess the microstructure of NiAl (100) single-crystals subsequently to irradiation at room temperature with 700 keV nickel ions up to 10(15) cm(-2) or 1. ...
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 ...
Microcrystalline hydrogenated silicon films (muc-Si:H) have been deposited by a high current DC plasma in argon-silane-hydrogen mixtures at growth rates up to 10 nm/s and at substrate temperatures below 500 degreesC. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray dif ...
Intermetallic thin films of stoichiometric NiAl and Ni3Al have been deposited onto n-type silicon (100) and nickel (110) substrates using r.f.-magnetron co-sputtering. The morphology and crystal structure of the thin films have been studied by transmission ...
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 microstructure of gas source molecular beam epitaxy GaN films deposited on (0001) sapphire is studied by transmission electron microscopy. For a nucleation layer deposited at 500 degrees C, high-quality materials, with only dislocations (density = 5 x ...
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 ...
