Abstract:

High-temperature durable mirrors based on a protected silver sputter coating are attractive for secondary reflector applications in concentrated solar thermal power plants. In this paper, silver films are deposited by high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) and standard direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering, either as exposed discretely deposited films or in-sequence-deposited thin film systems, where the silver is protected and embedded between adhesion and barrier layers. The unprotected silver films and equivalent protected silver thin film systems are compar

Abstract:

A sodium titanate nanofiber thin film and a silver nanoparticle/silver titanate nanofiber thin film formed on the surface of a titanium plate exhibited strong antibacterial activities against methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus, which is one of the major bacteria causing in-hospital infections. Exposure of the sodium titanate nanofiber thin film to ultraviolet rays generated a high antibacterial activity due to photocatalysis and the sodium titanate nanofiber thin film immediately after its synthesis possessed a high antibacterial activity even without exposure to ultraviolet rays.

Abstract:

Ag thin films were successfully produced via a green chemistry method from silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) obtained from reacting an extract of Pelargonium Zonale leaves with silver nitrate. The ions of silver nitrate were reduced to silver atoms by reducing stabilizer-capping compounds contained in the extract of Pelargonium Zonale leaves. The obtained atoms nucleate in small clusters that grew into nanoparticles and finally, they formed a homogeneous silver thin film on a glass substrate. The nanostructured thin films obtained were characterized by profilometry, X Ray Diffraction, Atomic Force

Abstract:

Silver films with a thickness below 50 nanometer were deposited on glass using DC magnetron sputtering. The chemical stability of the films was investigated by exposure of the film to a droplet of a HCl solution in a humid atmosphere. The affected area was monitored with a digital microscope. The affected area increases approximately linearly with time which points to a diffusive mechanism. The slope of the area versus time plot, or the diffusivity, was measured as a function of the acid concentration, the presence of an aluminum seed layer, and film thickness. The diffusivity scales linearly

It is known that noble metals such as gold, silver and copper are not superconductors; this is also true for magnesium.

Quantum confinement in thin films has been consistently shown to induce a significant enhancement of the superconducting critical temperature in several superconductors. It is therefore an impo

Abstract:

Silver (Ag) introduced colloidal Sn-doped In2O3 (ITO) ink for transparent conductive electrodes (TCEs) was prepared to overcome the limitation of colloidally prepared thin film; low density thin film, high resistance. ITO@Ag colloid ink was made by controlling the weight ratio of ITO and Ag nanoparticles through ball-milling and fabricated using spin coating. These films were dried at 220 °C and heat-treated at 450–750 °C in an air atmosphere to pyrolyze the organic ligand attached to the nanoparticles. All thin films showed high crystallinity. As the thermal treatment temperature increased, f

Silver thin film of 5 nm thicknesses was evaporated on glass and stainless steel substrates and annealed at 300°C for one hour. Then these samples were characterized by using X-ray diffraction method (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-VIS spectroscopy, and subjected to anti-microbial resistance test. XRD analysis showed as deposited silver thin film coated on glass substrate and stainless steel substrates have amorphous nature. The annealed Ag thin film coated on glass and stainless steel substrates showed crystallinity with silver phase and their crystalline size were in the range

Abstract:

With the advantage of simplicity and low cost, ink jet printing has the potential to replace the traditional chemical and physical deposition technology in thin film fabrication. In this work, silver conductive thin films are deposited on glass and polyimide substrates by ink jet printing, where some major characteristics of the printed thin films are investigated and compared to those deposited by sputtering. The micro texture and residual stresses of the thin films are measured with X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Using thin film scratch tester, the adhesion of thin films deposited by both ink j

Abstract:

The formation mechanism and surface evolution of thin silver films deposited on silicone oil substrates by a DC-magnetron sputtering method are reported. As the film thickness increases, the deposited silver atoms first form compact clusters, then transfer to ramified aggregates and finally form a continuous film on the liquid substrate. After deposition, the surface morphology of the silver film is susceptible to evolve successively in the atmosphere condition, resulting in the formation of broad cracks and straight-sided (or worm-like) wrinkles.

Abstract:

To understand morphological evolution and migration behavior caused by stress migration and thermal fatigue of silver thin films on flexible substrates, bending tests were conducted with different bending angles for two types of thermal tests. Furthermore, the effect of stress migration and thermal fatigue on the electrical conductivity of the silver thin films was discussed. The experimental samples were silver thin films printed on flexible paper for these tests. In an ultra-low cycle thermal test, the electrical conductivity of a silver film decreased with increasing bending angle because o

Abstract:

We investigate experimentally and numerically the scattering properties of liquid gallium nanoparticles coupled to a thin gold or silver film. The gallium nanoparticles are excited either directly by using inclined white light or indirectly by surface plasmon polaritons generated on the surface of the gold/silver film. In the former case, the scattering spectrum is always dominated by a scattering peak at ∼540 nm with a long-wavelength shoulder which is redshifted with increasing diameter of the gallium nanoparticle. Under the excitation of the surface plasmon polaritons, optical resonances wi

The effect of silver layer on the optical properties (absorption and direct and indirect band gap) were investigated. It was observed from the absorption spectra of the thin films that the silver layer that deposited on the surface of film has a very important influence on the location of the absorption peak as well as the amount of the energy gap. The band gaps were found in the range 1.75 to 2.38 eV

The woulf plot of fcc silver suggests that during growth (111) family plane predominated on surface of every grain and that was true according to SEM figure. This is the reason for low resistivity of silver thin film. Not only on surface but also this stable (111) plane

Our novel method allows direct examination of the optical properties and morphology of silver nanoplatelets in the same polymeric film.

The strong interaction between PMMA and quartz substrate leads to increased Tgs with the decreased thickness of the film.
