Magnetic Behavior of Surface Nanostructured 50-nm Nickel Thin Films
نویسنده
چکیده
Thermally evaporated 50-nm nickel thin films coated on borosilicate glass substrates were nanostructured by excimer laser (0.5 J/cm(2), single shot), DC electric field (up to 2 kV/cm) and trench-template assisted technique. Nanoparticle arrays (anisotropic growth features) have been observed to form in the direction of electric field for DC electric field treatment case and ruptured thin film (isotropic growth features) growth for excimer laser treatment case. For trench-template assisted technique; nanowires (70-150 nm diameters) have grown along the length of trench template. Coercive field and saturation magnetization are observed to be strongly dependent on nanostructuring techniques.

Surface plasmon coupled fluorescence in the visible to near-infrared spectral regions using thin nickel films: application to whole blood assays.
Nickel thin films thermally evaporated onto glass supports are used to demonstrate surface plasmon coupled fluorescence (SPCF) over a broad 400 nm wavelength range (400-800 nm) for potential assays that can be run in buffer and/or whole blood. In contrast to traditional fluorescence-based assays, SPCF converts otherwise isotropic emission into highly directional and polarized emission, an attra...
متن کاملStudies on sol-gel dip-coated nanostructured ZnO thin films
Nanostructured ZnO thin films were prepared by sol-gel dip coating technique. Zinc acetate and ammonium hydroxide were used as precursors and ethanol was as solvent. Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) solution was added drop-wise under vigorous stirring to obtain the sol-gel of different pH (varying from 6.9 to 7.2). ZnO thin films were obtained by dipping the glass substrates for few seconds and then ...
متن کاملCharacterization of nanostructured SnO2 thin film coated by Ag nanoparticles
Nanostructured SnO2 thin films were prepared using Electron Beam-Physical Vapor Deposition (EB-PVD) technique. Then Ag nanoparticles synthesized by laser-pulsed ablation were sprayed on the films. In order to form a homogenous coated of SnO2 on the glass surface, it was thermally treated at 500°C for 1 h. At this stage, the combined layer on the substrate was completely dried for 8 h in the air...

To enhance photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants, coral-like TiO2 nanostructured thin films were chemically synthesized through the sol-gel method. The fabricated thin films were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), nitrogen sorption isotherms, mercury porosimetry measurements, and UV-Vis Diffuse Reflectance Spectrum (DRS). The ...

In this study the effect of crystallite size reduction and microstructure on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of nanocrystalline nickel (NC Ni) were investigated using Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements in 10 wt.% NaOH. NC Ni coatings were produced by direct current electrodeposition using chloride baths in presence and absence of saccharin as...
