For the thickness 0 5 a liquid or solid quantum f i lm, like liquid helium or solid hydrogen, there exist still open questions about how the film thickness develops in certain limits. One of these is the thick film limit, i.e., the crossover from the thick film to bulk. We have performed rneasurements in this range using the surface plasmon resonance technique and an evaporated h g film deposit...

Various planar technologies are employed for developing solid-state sensors having low cost, small size and high reproducibility; thinand thick-film technologies are most suitable for such productions. Screen-printing is especially suitable due to its simplicity, low-cost, high reproducibility and efficiency in large-scale production. This technology enables the deposition of a thick layer and ...

The sensitivity level of resistors used in electronic equipment to an electrostatic discharge (ESD) varies from a few hundred volts to a few tens of kilovolts. Ways to make resistors more robust to ESD are suggested. The influence on ESD robustness of resistive element's size, resistive pattern design and ohmic value is discussed. Foil and thin film technologies are compared. In order to test t...

Different types of Ag/AgCl reference electrodes have been realised by means of thinand thick-film technique. For inner electrolyte, KCl-containing membranes have been deposited and different coatings have been used to protect the reference electrode from a fast leaching out of KCl. The stability of the potential of the reference electrodes without KClcontaining membranes in 3 M KCl was about 7 ...
