RF bias to suppress post-oxidation of mu c-Si:H films deposited by inductively-coupled plasma using a planar RF resonant antenna

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne, Rémy Jacquier

One challenge for microcrystalline silicon (mu c-Si:H) deposition is to achieve high deposition rates while maintaining high quality films. In this work, an inductively-coupled plasma (ICP) is used to deposit mu c-Si:H on glass substrates by means of a nov ...

Optimization of Sputter Deposition Process for Piezoelectric AlN Ultra-Thin Films

Kaitlin Marie Howell, Roman Welz

The sputtering conditions for the deposition of the layers underneath active AlN films were analyzed for improving the quality of the active AlN, and the dependence of AlN deposition temperature on crystalline quality was investigated, where a reduced depo ...

Surface Reaction Kinetics of Titanium Isopropoxide and Water in Atomic Layer Deposition

Patrik Willi Hoffmann, Yury Kuzminykh, Michael Oliver Reinke

In atomic layer deposition processes (ALD), surface reactions of adsorbed precursor species lead to the formation of thin films. In order to achieve a well-controlled, self-limiting process, the substrate is sequentially exposed to different precursor mole ...

Suspended micro resonator fabrication: atomic layer deposition

Annalisa De Pastina, Mathieu Basile Aberle

This project is focused on atomic layer deposition of aluminium oxide to fabricate suspended microchannel resonators. Few examples of the applications of such devices are blood analysis to detect cancerous cells or device cooling directly on the chip. The ...

Status, Operation, and Extension of the ECRH System at ASDEX Upgrade

Timothy Goodman, Dávid Wágner, Stefan Müller, Hartmut Zohm

The upgraded electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) system at ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) has been routinely used with eight gyrotrons during the last experimental campaign. A further upgrade will replace the existing system of four short-pulse (140 GHz, 2 s, ...

The TORCH time-of-flight detector

Christoph Frei

The TORCH time-of-flight detector is being developed to provide particle identification between 2 and 10 GeV/c momentum over a flight distance of 10 m. TORCH is designed for large-area coverage, up to 30 m(2), and has a DIRC-like construction. The goal is ...
