Thin-film deposition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Thin" is a relative term, but most deposition techniques allow layer thickness to be controlled within a few tens of nanometers, and some allow one layer of atoms to be deposited at a time. Deposition techniques fall into two broad categories, based on whether they are understood in terms of chemistry, or of physics. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) generally uses a gas-phase precursor, often a halide or hydride of the element to be deposited. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Thin-film_deposition   (923 words)

CEI Course #51, Thin Film Deposition and Applications Thin film technology is pervasive in many applications, including microelectronics, optics, magnetic, hard and corrosion resistant coatings, micro-mechanics, etc. Progress in each of these areas depends upon the ability to selectively and controllably deposit thin films - thickness ranging from tens of ångströms to micrometers - with specified physical properties. Thin film technology has been the hot topic of solar cell research for a number of years. Chemical reactions, occurring usually on the surface, are used both in CVD and ALE to deposit thin films on substrate surfaces. www.cei.se /051.htm   (1849 words)

Method for optimization of thin film deposition To tailor a film the рrосess соnditiоns аre vаried during the film deposition round where least single of the pressures and temperаtures is vаried by least 10%. In a particular impIementation, a capacitor dieIectric of siIicon nitride is tailored by vаrying the pressure for the mass film deposition and by vаrying together the temperаture and pressure for the film surfаce formаtion phase. > Thin film transistor fabrication method, active matrix substrate fabrication method, and liquid crystal display device www.patentalert.com /docs/000/z00002853.shtml   (172 words)

SR&T Thin Film Deposition Facilities Sputter deposition is a technique where material from a target plate is removed by bombardment with Ar ions, which are formed in a low pressure plasma. Before deposition a low pressure glow discharge can be applied for improvement of the adhesion of thecoating. These processes are unwanted in the e-beam deposition facility. www.sron.nl /www/srt/code/microstructures/deposition.php   (665 words)

3. Laser Ablation and Thin-Film Deposition The properties and structure of a YBCO film deposited on silicon substrates with proper buffer layers is discussed, e.g., in Refs. Under proper process parameters (e.g., the background gas pressure, the substrate temperature, and the laser fluence), the film grows epitaxially and the stoichiometry of the film is a replica of that of the target. The quality of the deposited film is, above all, determined by the crystallinity of the lattice and the surface smoothness. www.tkk.fi /Units/AES/projects/prlaser/thesis/node4.html   (4149 words)

Electroluminescent Research Group Thin-Film Deposition Systems Activated Reactive Evaporation (ARE) is the thermal evaporation of a substance in the presence of an activated gas (from a plasma). Sputtering is particularly useful for depositing multinary compounds, which are very difficult to evaporate due to the different vapor pressures of the constituent elements. This system is a modified CPA radio-frequency sputtering system which is used to deposit oxide- and sulfide-based phosphor materials, p-type conductors, and occasionally high-dielectric constant dielectric materials. eecs.oregonstate.edu /matdev/lab/thinfilmdeptools.html   (736 words)

Articles - Thin-film optics In manufacturing, thin film layers can be achieved through the deposition of one or more thin layers of material onto a substrate (usually glass), most often by a physical vapor deposition process such as evaporative or sputtering, or a chemical process such as chemical vapor deposition. These thin films are used to create optical coatings. Thin-film optics is the branch of optics which deals with very thin structured layers of different materials. www.xgrey.com /articles/Thin-film_optics   (288 words)

Handbook of Thin Film Deposition Processes and Technologies, 2nd Ed. The second edition of the Handbook of Thin Film Deposition includes entirely new chapters on contamination and contamination control, which assume greater and greater importance as dimensions shrink to sub-micron levels. This growth has been fueled in large part by improved thin film deposition techniques and the development of highly specialized equipment to enable this deposition. Consistent with this change, the processing for the deposition and patterning of films has received major research and engineering emphasis over the last few decades...Today one can control both the electrical and mechanical properties while achieving uniform and reproducible films from a few atomic layers thick to several micrometers. www.polysurfacesbookstore.com /pages/3685.html   (349 words)
