We investigate the presence of secondary phases in La-doped Bi-2201 thin films grown by laser ablation. The cation ratios in the target material, the oxygen pressure, and the substrate temperature during the deposition are the main parameters determining t ...
This contribution summarizes a number of aspects of the experimental and modelling programme at JET aimed at improving the characterization and understanding of edge localized mode (ELM) transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL). Divertor target energy depos ...
We have developed hybrid AFM probes with SU-8 polymer body and full platinum and tungsten cantilever and tip. The fabrication process uses surface micromachining of a (100) silicon wafer. The metal (platinum or tungsten) is sputter deposited in oxidation s ...
TiN/AlTiN, TiN/CrN and CrN/AlTiN multilayer coatings have been deposited by the cathodic arc evaporation technique. The period is in the range 7-200 nm for a total thickness of 3 μm. The period's control of the nanoscaled hard films is achieved, a priori, ...
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has been used to investigate the nucleation and stability of iron clusters on the Al2O3/Ni3Al (111) surface as a function of coverage and annealing temperature. We show that atomic beam deposition of iron leads to hexago ...
Nanocomposite thin films exhibit interesting optical properties which differ from those of the pure constituents. Effective medium theories are used to model the dielectric function of the nanocomposite materials. We give an introduction to the theories of ...
Hafnium tetrachloride is one of the most commonly used precursors for atomic layer deposition of HfO2. According to the experimental result, chlorine residue is almost unavoidably incorporated during the deposition process. We performed first-principles ca ...
Al2O3 films are grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using trimethylaluminum and water as precursors on HF-last and NH3 plasma pretreatment Si substrates. The thickness, surface roughness, and density of Al2O3 films as well as the nature of their interla ...
We report on a dramatic improvement of the optical and structural properties of AlN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy using indium as a surfactant. This improvement is observed using photoluminescence as well as x ...
Thin films of tantalum oxynitride were prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering using a Ta target and N2 and O2 as reactive gases. The nitrogen flow was kept constant while the oxygen flow was pulsed periodically. The film composition evolves progressivel ...
