Physical Properties of Reactively Sputter-Deposited C-N Thin Films
This work aims to prepare and study amorphous carbon nitride (CNx) films. Films were deposited by reactive magnetron radiofrequency (RF) sputtering from graphite target in argon and nitrogen mixture discharge at room temperature. The ratio of the gas flow rate was varied from 0.1 to 1. Deposited films were found to be amorphous. Highest Nitrogen concentration achieved was 42 atomic percent whic...
متن کاملX-ray diffraction and extended x-ray absorption fine-structure characterization of nonspherical crystallographic grains in iron thin films
The characterization of iron thin films grown at different substrate temperatures has been performed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS). The film growing of iron at low temperatures provides an excellent system to test the results obtained from both techniques because the crystallographic grains present a variation of size and shape as a function of ...
متن کاملEffects of Many-body Interactions in Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy (exafs)
We present the first a priori derivation of a many-body theory for EXAFS with clearly defined approximations and with final expressions which are feasible for quantitative evaluations. We conclude that the conventional EXAFS expression should be complemented with a term that crudely is the main term, energy-shifted and scaled down by a factor of order 0.2-0.3. Further the f-factors depend signi...
متن کاملStructure and Bonding in Amorphous Cr1−xCx Nanocomposite Thin Films: X‐ray Absorption Spectra and First-Principles Calculations
The local structure and chemical bonding in two-phase amorphous Cr1−xCx nanocomposite thin films are investigated by Cr K-edge (1s) X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopies in comparison to theory. By utilizing the computationally efficient stochastic quenching (SQ) technique, we reveal the complexity of different Cr-sites ...
متن کاملGrowth, structure and stability of sputter-deposited MoS2 thin films
Molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) thin films have received increasing interest as device-active layers in low-dimensional electronics and also as novel catalysts in electrochemical processes such as the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in electrochemical water splitting. For both types of applications, industrially scalable fabrication methods with good control over the MoS2 film properties are cru...
