Sputter deposition processes

Sputter deposition is a widely used technique to deposit thin films on substrates. The technique is based upon ion bombardment of a source material, the target. Ion bombardment results in a vapor due to a purely physical process, i.e. the sputtering of the target material. Hence, this technique is part of the class of physical vapor deposition techniques, which includes, for example, thermal ev...

Fundamentals of Electrochemical Deposition Second Edition

59 It is occasionally the case that certain types of work produce results that seem completely obvious in hindsight. A common example of a case where this effect is observed is for papers that provide a synthesis of several ideas. The elegance, simplicity, and power of such analyses, while critical to the consolidation of scientific ideas, leads us to forget the state of confusion or piecemeal ...

Electrochemical deposition of thin magnetic layers

Magnetic layers and layered structures with defined physical properties are of high interest for magnetoelectronic and magnetoelectromechanical applications as well as for magnetic data storage. New deposition technologies become more important in industrial branches for magnetic applications. Electrochemical deposition methods are favoured due to their low costs compared to physical deposition...

Electrochemical reactions and ionization processes.

Electrochemical or photo-electrochemical reactions in both electrospray ionization and laser desorption ionization are discussed stressing the role of the electrode reaction in influencing the ionization process. In particular, upon application of a high voltage during electrospray ionization, the emitter includes a working electrode, where redox reactions are observed, such as electro-generati...
