Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When electrical voltage is applied across a dielectric film, a very small amount of leakage current is measured across the material. The amount of leakage current increases with the increase of applied electrical field. As applied electrical field is increased gradually, the material fails at some point, which is known as the "breakdown" of the dielectric material. In this research work, it has been shown that mechanical stress alone can influence the amount of leakage current of the material, even though the applied electrical field is kept same throughout the process. This behavior is ascribed to the de-trapping of electrons under mechanical strain. This dissertation showed experimental evidence of length scale induced coupling between thermal, mechanical and electrical domains. The technological aspect of this research impacts micro and opto electronics, energy conversion, sensors and actuators and in general, nanotechnology applications. However, it is also very fundamental in nature, and the new phenomena that are explored will enrich knowledge of material behavior and lay foundation for the future work on multi-physics of material at nano scale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume entitled "Protective Coatings and Thin Films : Synthesis, Characterization and Applications" contains the Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) held in Alvor, Portugal from May 30 to June 5, 1996. This NATO-ARW was an expert meeting on the surface protection and modification of solid materials subjected to interactions with the environment. The meeting attracted 10 key speakers, 40 contributing speakers and 3 observers from various countries. The existing knowledge and current status of the science and technology related to protective coatings and thin films were assessed through a series of oral presentations, key notes (titles underlined in the volume content) and contributed papers distributed over various sessions dealing with: (a) plasma-assisted physical and chemical vapor deposition processes to enhance wear and corrosion protection of materials, (b) low friction coatings operating in hostile environment (vacuum, space, extreme temperatures, . . . ), (c) polymer films for protection against mechanical damage and chemical attack, (d) characterization of the structure of films and correlations with mechanical properties, (e) wear and corrosion resistant thermal spray coatings, (f) functional gradient ceramic/metallic coatings produced by high energy laser beam and energetic deposition processes for high temperature applications, (g) protective coatings for optical systems, and (h) ion beam assisted deposition of coatings for protection of materials against aqueous corrosion.
Download or read book Physics of Thin Films written by Georg Hass and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics of Thin Films: Advances in Research and Development, Volume 12 reviews advances that have been made in research and development concerning the physics of thin films. This volume covers a wide range of preparative approaches, physics phenomena, and applications related to thin films. This book is comprised of four chapters and begins with a discussion on metal coatings and protective layers for front surface mirrors used at various angles of incidence from the ultraviolet to the far infrared. Thin-film materials and deposition conditions suitable for minimizing reflectance changes with angle of incidence are described, along with novel oxide protective coatings with enhanced chemical stability and mechanical durability. The next chapter offers a comprehensive treatment of photoemissive materials. After giving a rather detailed review of the physics of photoemission, the main classes of thin-film photoemitters, including Ag-O-Cs, alkali antimonides, and negative-electron affinity photocathodes, are considered. A description of field-assisted cathodes potentially suitable for wavelengths beyond 1.1 micrometers, such as transferred-electron structures and field-emission arrays, is also given. The reader is then introduced to spray pyrolysis and the solution growth technique for chemical solution deposition of inorganic films. This text concludes with a chapter on plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of thin films, paying particular attention to the experimental conditions required for a range of element and compound materials as well as some of the unusual film properties and structures achieved by this approach. This monograph will be useful to students and practitioners of physics, especially those interested in thin films.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The performance of coatings for high power laser application depends not only on the optical properties of the films, but the thermal properties as well. An examination of the literature indicates that virtually all work has concerned the optical absorptance or reflectance, and that virtually no thermal property data are available for optical materials as thin films. Since it is known that the optical absorptance is often larger by orders of magnitude for a material as a thin film compared to bulk, a similar change (decrease) in thermal diffusivity might be expected. Of additional concern are the interfacial thermal barriers occurring at the boundaries between films. This paper presents experimental data for thin-film materials including Al2O3 and SiO2 deposited in high vacuum. A simple theoretical analysis is also presented at well as recommendation for further work.
