Microstructure of PZT films deposited by Inductively Coupled Plasma Assisted Aerosol Deposition Method

Texture and microstructure of Cr2O3 and (Cr,Al)2O3 thin films deposited by reactive inductively coupled plasma magnetron sputtering

CuInS2 Films Deposited by Aerosol-Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition Using Ternary Single-Source Precursors

Photovoltaics are an important power source for both off-grid terrestrial and extraterrestrial use. Thin film polycrystalline materials have been studied extensively for solar cell applications partially because their polycrystalline nature allows their formation on many different types of substrates including glass, metal foil, and lightweight flexible polymer substrates. For example, monolith...

Characterization of CrBN films deposited by ion beam assisted deposition

of CrBN films deposited by ion beam assisted deposition" (2002). This article reports on the growth and analysis of CrBN nanocrystalline materials using an ion beam assisted deposition process. In addition, this article addresses the utilization of spectroscopic ellipsometry for in situ analysis of ternary nitrides. Coatings, with a total thickness of 1.5 Ϯ0.2 ␮m, were deposited at low temperat...

Deposition of fine carbon particles using pulsed ArF laser ablation assisted by inductively coupled plasma

Carbon thin films containing many fine carbon particles were deposited by a pulsed ArF laser ablation technique assisted by inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The sizes of the particles were found to be ~ 100 nm. The particles seemed to be coagulated from several finer particles of size ~ 10 nm. When ICP was applied to a plume, the shape of the coagulated particles became spherical. The deposite...

Upcycling Waste Lard Oil into Vertical Graphene Sheets by Inductively Coupled Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition

Vertical graphene (VG) sheets were single-step synthesized via inductively coupled plasma (ICP)-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using waste lard oil as a sustainable and economical carbon source. Interweaved few-layer VG sheets, H₂, and other hydrocarbon gases were obtained after the decomposition of waste lard oil. The influence of parameters such as temperature, gas proportion, ICP...
