چکیده

In this paper we report on the deposition of La0.99Ca0.01NbO4 thin films with scheelite-type crystal structure. Thanks to the film's nanostructure, we were able to stabilize the tetragonal scheelite-type structure phase at room temperature, which involves a full removal of the fergusonite-scheelite phase transition.

Effect of Variations in Annealing Temperature and Metallic Cations on Nanostructured Molybdate Thin Films

Crystalline molybdate thin films were prepared by the complex polymerization method. The AMoO4(A = Ca, Sr, Ba) films were deposited onto Si wafers by the spinning technique. The Mo-O bond in the AMoO4structure was confirmed by FTIR spectra. X-ray diffraction revealed the presence of crystalline scheelite-type phase. The mass, size, and basicity of A2+cations was found to be dependent on the int...

Effect of Thickness on Properties of Copper Thin Films Growth on Glass by DC Planar Magnetron Sputtering

Copper thin films with nano-scale structure have numerous applications in modern technology.  In this work, Cu thin films with different thicknesses from 50–220 nm have been deposited on glass substrate by DC magnetron sputtering technique at room temperature in pure Ar gas. The sputtering time was considered in 4, 8, 12 and 16 min, respectively. The thickness effect on the structural, mo...
