AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
In the frame of this thesis, two similar high current DC arc (HCDCA) plasma sources were investigated in a low gas pressure regime (10-3-10-2 mbar). One of them was initially designed for the epitaxial growth of silicon and silicon germanium (LEP), the oth ...
DC reactive magnetron sputtering was used for the deposition of Zr–Si–N thin films. Four series of samples have been deposited at various substrate temperatures TS: 300 K, 510 K, 710 K and 910 K. Depending on TS, different N2 partial pressures pN2 were req ...
In the present work, we apply a 2D self consistent model of SiH4/H2 discharges in order to investigate the transition from microcrystalline to amorphous silicon growth. The model is used to examine the relative importance of ions and atomic hydrogen in the ...
The stability in humid environment of low pressure chemical vapor deposited boron doped zinc oxide (LPCVD ZnO:B) used as transparent conductive oxide in thin film silicon solar cells is investigated. Damp heat treatment (exposition to humid and hot atmosph ...
(001)-textured AIN thin films as needed for longitudinal bulk acoustic wave (BAW) devices exhibit large mechanical stress variations and large orientation variation as a function of growth substrate properties. We prepared thin silicon and silicon dioxide ...

In this paper, we study the localized deposition of ZnO micro and nanostructures deposited by non-reactive rf-magnetron sputtering through a stencil mask on ultra-thin (10 nm) SiO2 layers containing a single plane of silicon nanocrystals (NCs), synthetized ...
The constant energy consumption and world-wide demography expansion add to the potential risks of ecological and human disaster associated with global warming. This makes it a necessity to develop renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic energy. ...
Properties of thin films such as the crystallinity of silicon deposited from SiH4 - H-2 discharges are governed by the plasma composition. Therefore, it is crucial to measure the plasma composition in order to understand and optimize the deposition rate, d ...
In the context of the diminishing fossil energy resources and global warming, much research is focused on sustainable energy sources. The research that is presented in this thesis falls in this category as it contributes to the development of a device that ...
Polycrystalline Boron-doped ZnO films deposited by low pressure chemical vapor deposition technique are developed for their use as transparent contacts for thin-film silicon solar cells. The size of the columnar grains that constitute the ZnO films is rela ...
