MEMS gas sensor is one of the development directions of the sensor, and it must work at a certain temperature, so micro heater is an important part of MEMS gas sensor. In this paper, aiming at the high cost and complex process of Pt film heater, we developed the research of Fe/Cr/Al and Ni/Cr cheap metals replacing Pt metal. With Fe/Cr/Al and Ni/Cr metal as the targets respectively, Fe/Cr/Al an...

The effect of surface bond-order loss on the classical resistivity of metallic polycrystalline thin films is studied. The potential barriers due to grain boundaries considered here contain square-well depressions on both sides taking into account the effect of surface bond-order loss for the grains in a film. Electron scattering by film surfaces is also considered following the lines of Fuchs’ ...

this paper reports on preparation of polyamide membrane with addition of silver nanoparticles (agnps). agnps act as antibacterial agents that are less susceptible to membrane’s biofouling by interfacial polymerization (ip) method. agnps was synthesized via green route which has been reported previously. attenuated total reflectance-fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (atr-ftir), field emiss...

Thin film composite membranes of polyamide prepared by vapour phase interfacial polymerization between a diamine and an acyl chloride are applied to nanofiltration.

In this research work, silica nano-porous thin films were deposited on glass substrates by layer by layer method. The thin films were calcinated at various calcination temperatures (200, 300, 400, and 500 °C). The morphology, surface characteristics, surface roughness and hydrophilic properties of the thin films were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy, attenuated total ...

Thin films of LaS were prepared by using spray pyrolysis technique at 270 0 C and thickness were varied by changing the concentration of reactant solution. The films were optically characterized and their variations with film thickness were studies. It was found that thickness can be tuned by varying concentration of reactant solution. The band gap was found to vary between 2.35eV to 2.50eV. Th...
