Full textThe newfound capability of creating moisture sensitive interference multilayered thin films (MLTFs) comprising microfibrillated cellulose and polymers has not previously been possible to implement on surfaces other than silicon wafer strips. Being able to incorporate interference MLTFs on fibre-based materials would introduce the possibility for new applications within authentication, sensing and customer attraction for the paper and packaging industry. By using trichloro (1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorooctyl) silane we were able to hydrophobically modify silicon substrates, enabling interference MLTF lift-off and thus the creation of free-standing MLTFs of approximately 400 nm thickness. Contact dried MLTFs approximately 250 nm thick, were successfully transferred to copy- and filter paper as well as to cellulose-based dialysis membranes. We can also report on the successful synthesis of interference MLTFs directly on a fibre composite material and on aluminium. Initial tests of a method to quantify the pull-off conditions of the MLTFs from the fluorinated surfaces using the Micro Adhesion Measurement Apparatus showed promising results.

Proliferation of data caused by rapid increases in computer power and the rise of the internet have caused an acute need for advanced data storage technology. Patterned magnetic media and magneto-resistive random-access memory (MRAM) can potentially fulfill this need. The technique of interference lithography is examined in the context of patterning ~100 nm size features. An interferometer is designed and built which will allow exposure of gratings and grids with a minimum spatial period of ~ 170 nm. Etching methods, especially ion-beam etching, or ion milling, is investigated as the optimal choice for patterning sub-100 nm features in thin magnetic films and multi-layer thin film stacks. The advantages and disadvantages of a variety of resist stacks and etch masks are presented. An optimal process for linewidth control and preservation of magnetic properties is found to include a thin phase-shifting resist stack and a tungsten hardmask.

Full textThis paper presents the results of the study and development of the design parameters of a Multi-Spectral Solar Radiometer (MSSR), based on Variable Interference Filter (VIF) pass-bad which incorporates a resonant layer Fabry-Perot inclined in form wedge, tunable within the optically active area of VIF, applicable to enviro nmental sensing and aerosols. The theory proposed was presented for the simulation, design and deposition by interactive method (associated with reviews of depositions simulations). The VIF was parameterized for the MSSR, but can serve other applications in multi-channel and multispectral sensors. The construction of VIF required studies and adaptations of the classic techniques of thin film deposition and microelectronic, was used the PVD / E-Beam. A study and the use of mathematical and simulation software, related to VIFs applicable to conventional IF appears. This software were applied and assessed in relation to the design of VIF. We evaluate the technique that produces the slope in the thickness of VIFs in a monolayer of 600 nm with a LMEs Surface Profiler. The VIFs characterized optically with spectrophotometers, can present an optically active area scanning 120,5 nm of the electromagnetic spectrum between channels 475,5 nm to 596 nm, belonging to 17,3 mm extension of VIF. FIV is an optical device designed with wedge-shaped thickness resulting in the linear transmittance for the spectral response with a 6,97 nm/mm in extension rate. It was proposed that VIFs characterized together with PD of a PDA, diffuser and lens form a detector module connected to a set of pre-processing and data collection (electronic module) thus forming the parameterized MSSR. The proposed MSSR was assessed using the VIF02 which operates a range of optically active (600 nm to 715 nm), a PDA model TSL1401 with PD 128 and Arduino UNO microcontroller to manage the detection. The results indicate that the instrument is equivalent to other reference spectrophotometer measurements, when measuring a monochromatic beam at 655,4 nm, but with narrower 0,13 nm resolution by channel. It was also pointed out the necessity of dedicated instrumentation for optical characterizations of other VIF MSSR detector assembly and the calibration.

Full textThis work presents the development of a method to obtain and characterize a variable interference optical bandpass filter, made up of a number of thin films forming dielectrical reflectors intercalated by non flat Fabry-Perot cavities whose thickness variates linearly. These filters present the propriety of a linear variation in the maximum spectral transmittance as a function of the position in the filter, for this reason this is called Variable Interference Filter (VIF). This method allows of manufacturing linear interference filters or any other function disered, with variable cut wavelength (low or high pass) and variable neutral density filters by means of metallic depositions. The first step in this work was to design and built a conventional filter, with homogeneous layers and a fixed central wavelength. The following step was, using spectrometric theory basis, introduce the variation in the thickness of the layers in a linear inclined outline. Accordingly with the design requirements, it was made some adaptations in an e-beam evaporator (electron-beam), adding a mechanical obliterator adjusted with series of depositions and characterizations of a single layers in order to find a linearly inclined outline. In the end of this step it was designed and built the specified VIF. It is also described a possible application of this VIF: a multichannel spectral device for environmental analysis. Between many applications, others can be cited, such as: Lab-on-Chip systems, biosensors chip-sized detectors, on-chip fluorescence spectrometry, shift wavelength detectors, interrogation systems, etc.

Nanoporous anodic alumina films (NAA) may present different behavior to reflectance and photoluminescence techniques, with Fabry-Pérot interferences and waveguide properties. This phenomenon makes possible the use of NAA as transducer signal in optical sensors. In this work, we investigated how the pre-treatment, the number of steps of anodizing, the anodizing electrolyte mode and temperature affect electrochemical characteristics, morphological and optical mainly NAA. As a result, it was noticeable that the realization of electropolishing is necessary for both the NAA with good regularity as to make it possible to obtain a spectrum with the Fabry-Pérot interference. If the fabrication of NAA is done in two steps, it is possible to obtain reflectance spectra and luminescence fringed with better amplitudes, areas and heights. Regarding the anodizing mode, both the NAA anodized in galvanostatic how potentiostatic showed similar morphologies and spectra with fringes, but the interferences were better defined when the galvanostatic mode was performed. Regarding the temperature, it was noticeable that the change of this parameter leads influences the porous oxide thickness. The spectrum of the luminescence and reflectance increasing the electrolyte temperature caused an increase in interference. However, the range and resolution of interference decreased with increasing temperature. The oxide thicknesses were estimated by energy variation (?E), graph slope between order and 1/? and fast Fourier transform (FFT) techniques. The ratio of film thickness and pore diameter (L/dp) was performed to validate the NAA films with better waveguides property. Moreover, the surface composition analysis of NAA films anodized in phosphoric acid, oxalic acid and mixtures thereof by backscattering spectroscopy Rutherford (RBS) was performed. From simulations it was possible to note that the amount of carbon in the porous oxide structure is practically zero, which may indicate that the origin of the luminescence is related to the presence of more centers F.
Filmes de alumina anódica porosa (AAP) podem apresentar, espectros de reflectância e luminescência com interferências de Fabry-Pérot e propriedades de guias de onda. Esse fenômeno possibilita que a AAP possa ser utilizada como plataforma em sensores ópticos. Neste trabalho, foi investigado como o pré-tratamento, o número de etapas de anodização, o modo de anodização e a temperatura do eletrólito afetam características eletroquímicas, morfológicas e principalmente ópticas da AAP. Como resultado, foi possível notar que a realização do eletropolimento é necessário para obter tanto a AAP com boa regularidade como para que seja possível obter um espectro com as interferências Fabry-Pérot. Se a fabricação da AAP for feita em duas etapas, é possível obter espectros de reflectância e luminescência com franjas com melhores amplitudes, áreas e alturas. Com relação ao modo de anodização, tanto as AAPs anodizadas em modo galvanostático como potenciostático apresentaram morfologias semelhantes e espectros com franjas, mas as interferências foram melhor definidas quando o modo galvanostático foi realizado. Com relação à temperatura, foi possível notar que a mudança desse parâmetro ocasiona influencia na espessura do óxido poroso. Quanto aos espectros de luminescência e reflectância, o aumento da temperatura do eletrólito ocasionou um aumento no número de interferências. Entretanto, a amplitude e a resolução das interferências diminuíram com o aumento da temperatura. A espessura do filme poroso foi estimada pelas técnicas de variação de energia (?E), coeficiente angular do gráfico entre ordem da interferência e 1/? e através da transformada rápida de Fourier (FFT). E foi utilizada a razão entre a espessura do filme e diâmetro do poro (Esp/Dp) para averiguar os filmes de AAP com guias de onda que pudessem ser utilizadas como substratos para sensores ópticos. Além disso, foi realizada a análise de composição superficial dos filmes de AAP anodizados em ácido fosfórico, oxálico e mistura destes ácidos pela técnica de espectroscopia de retroespalhamento de Rutherford (RBS). A partir das simulações realizadas foi possível notar que a quantidade que carbono na estrutura do oxido poroso é praticamente nula, o que pode indicar que a origem da luminescência está relacionada à presença dos centros F.

In this study, the laser interference lithography and wet etching process on CIGS thin film has been discussed. We used laser interference lithography technique and wet etching to transfer the square and the hexagnal periodical pattern nanostructures on Copper Indium Gallium Selenide(CIGS) thin films, the period of grating was about 500nm, and the depth was about 100nm~200nm. In order to fabricate a superior quality mask of photoresist(SU-8 2000.5) for wet etching transfer that on the CIGS thin film by laser interference lithography. We used the wet etching to polish the CIGS surface and solve the problem of CIGS surface roughness. Therefore we has been fabricated the 1D and 2D pattern mask of photoresist for etching transfer that on CIGS thin film. In addition, we also measured the reflectance of different nanostructures surface on CIGS thin films. The reflectance of polished, textured, squared nanostructures, and hexagnal nanostructures CIGS thin films surface was 26.34%, 24.21%, 22.41%, and 16.84%, respectively. Comapred to polished CIGS thin films surface, the total reflectance of square and hexagnal nanostructures CIGS thin film surface was decrease to 14.91% and 36.05%, respectively. The fabrication of nanostructures on CIGS thin film has been discussed, and we find out the optimal parameters in etching time, then we produced the large area and small period nanostructures on CIGS thin film.

As electro-optical devices become dominated, the optical thin-films are important elements in the fabrication of electro-optical industry. Except for the needs of high quality's optical thin-films, surface's examination of thin film structure is also very important. Because that the mechanical surface profiling of a thin-film requires the expense of measuring time, it is important to develop non-intrusion techniques for thin-film profiling. An optical surface profiling method of applying Michelson interfering image contain information of surface structure which can be easily interrogated by using a numerical calculating program. In this thesis we demonstrates the development of a microscopic Michelson interferes surface profiling system which is able to achieve a high resolution depth profiling of a two dimensional thin film. The characterization of the performance of this surface profiling system effected by imaging approach has presented.

The purpose of this research is to study people’s vision under night-time conditions, using thin-film filter and absorption filter to improve night vision ability. The proposed method is to use thin-film coating technology to increase optical visibility, through thin film interference filters to make visual images clearly on the target imaging of the retina and to increase the visual sensitivity. The absorption filter is the most widely utilized type of filter, and operated by attenuation of light through absorption of specific wavelengths, so that other wavelengths of light pass through the filter to reduce glare and to enhance contrast sensitivity of seeing a target, thus it can improve the visual acuity. Characteristics of combining two types of filters can enhance the visual acuity at night time. This research carries out the experimental analysis for two kinds of filters, and the combination of the two filters can help to promote higher night vision sensitivity. Using the advantages of both filters could reduce the degree of eye fatigue and provide a good protection for the personal security.

At present, we are studying a tiny but important part of the DWDM (Dense Wave-length Division Multiplexer), which is the filter. It will influence the quality and stability of communication. I am working on how to use the sputtering-coating skill to make a good filter. In the experiment, some self-remold equipment is used, including four sputter guns, magnetic fluid feedthrough, and transmitted optical thickness monitors. I use the equipment to start the first stage of coating DWDM filter. In the state, the following topics are discussed: the remold of equipment, the study of the thickness of the coating, and how it can be improved in the future.

A test structure with micro-nano scale copper film, which is deposited on the novel paddle-like cantilever beam, was successfully fabricated using standard C-MOS processes. Compared to the traditional cantilevered beam, the 40 μm and 120μm thickness paddle-like structure provides the uniform stress distribution along the whole beam to ecrease the measurement variation. The deflections of Cu film led by the electrostatic force were measured using four step phase-shifting method. The measurement results present that the test structure and the optical (FSPS) method work properly. And the performance of system responding to the magnitude of the film residual stresses was calculated. Finally, research mentions some methods and suggestions for this system.

Abstract The thin films for electronic applications are generally required to have smooth surfaces. However, the film surface roughness is greatly dependent on deposition parameters. This thesis mainly discusses how to use off-axis Pulse Laser Deposition to fabricate the YBa2Cu3O7-δ thin film with smoother surface. We change the deposition parameters, such as laser repetition rate, oxygen pressure…et al., to get different surface roughness and use AFM to determine them. Moreover, different deposition parameters will cause different superconducting electric properties. The film has the smooth surface, which does not mean that it also has good superconducting electric properties. However, we use the two-step deposition method to get the YBa2Cu3O7-δ thin film which both has the smooth surface and good superconducting electric properties. Then, we use the bi-layer thin film to fabricate the High-Tc SQUID and the High-Tc SQUID magnetometer and measure the electric properties and noise of them. The critical currents Ic of the High-Tc SQUID and the High-Tc SQUID magnetometer that we fabricated are both too small which cause serious thermal fluctuation. The thermal fluctuation causes the higher noise. If we can improve the question of critical current, we should reduce the noise of SQUIDs.

Cobalt disilicide (CoSi_2) is a kind of common silicides in semiconductor industry. The crystal structure of CoSi_2 is very similar to silicon, so it's ready to grow good epitaxial layers on silicon substrates and the resulting CoSi_2 possesses low resistivity and long elastic mean free path (l_e). It also one of the very few silicides which have superconductivity. In this study, we investigate the electronic transport properties in the CoSi_2 layers. One of the most interested issues for us is the quantum interference effects (e.g. weak anti-localization effect), the related phase coherent length and superconducting (SC) fluctuation effect at low temperatures. The CoSi_2 layers are made by the method of solid phase epitaxy. Briefly speaking, we deposit patterned cobalt films on pure silicon substrates, and then perform a high-temperature annaeling to drive cobalt diffusion and form CoSi_2 layers. To understand the effect of disorderness on the electrical transport in CoSi_2, we have made samples of different thicknesses (53 and 25 nm) on the substrates of different crystal orientations (Si<100> and Si<111>) and measured them with a low-noise AC resistance bridge at variable temperatures and magnetic fields. The resistivities at 4 Kelvin are between 2.2 and 5 μΩ⋅cm. The magneto-resistances (MRs) within +/- 1 Tesla are positive and show parabolic shape in the high-field region (0.2 - 1 Tesla). From these data, we can extract the carrier mobilities and l_e's which range from 50 to 130 nm. Besides, the thinner the CoSi2 layers, the lower the superconducting transition temperatures (Tc). Their Tc's locate between 1.2 and 1.5 K. As the temperature is between 4 K and 20 K, the low-field (+/- 0.2 Tesla) MRs reveal clear sharp dips at zero field. The dips are just the signature of weak anti-localization (WAL) and indicate strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in this material. We utilize the well established theory of two-dimentional (2D) WAL effect and SC fluctuation to analyze the data and hence extract phase coherent lengths L_φ and the strength parameter β of SC fluctuation at different temperatures. After the analysis, we found that the L_φ can be longer than one micron which is much longer than those in normal conductors. The β is smaller than the theoretical value. This result can be attributed to the strong SOC which induces spin mismatch on the virtual Cooper pairs more quickly. After the L_φ is transformed into dephasing rate (1/τ_φ), we found a rough trend that the samples of shorter le's show higher dephasing rates. Furthermore, 1/τ_φ has two distinct temperature dependences in low-T and high-T regimes, that is, 1/τ_φ~T^1 and 1/τ_φ~T^3, respectively. In the low-T regime, the origin of 1/τ_φ~T^1 is mainly due to electron-electron (e-e) scattering (1/τ_ee) in 2D systems. With the theoretical estimation of e-e scattering strength Aee in the dirty limit, we found that the theoretical Aee is close to the experimental one extracted from 1/τ_φ and both lie in the order of magnitude of 1×〖10〗^9 Hz/T. The temperature dependence of 1/τ_φ~T^3 at higher temperatures fits the theoretical description of electron-phonon scattering (e-ph) rate in the clean limit. The theoretical and experimental e-ph scattering strength A_ep's are both in the order of magnitude of 1×〖10〗^7Hz/T^3. This result is reasonable for our samples because the le is much longer than the phonon wavelength such that the e-ph scattering in CoSi_2 actually corresponds to the model of clean limit. Comparing to analysis method in the literature, we have found that the curve-fitting of our MRs can not be well done if we do not include the SC fluctuation effect. Another unclear point is the strong SOC in this material. From our result, the SOC strength seems no dependence on the disorderness (i.e. l_e). We hope our study can help to develop more future applications with CoSi_2.

With the urgent demand to improve the processing frequency and data transfer rate, the development of electronic devices working at high frequency range have drawn extensive attention. Electromagnetic interference has become a serious issue due to the generated electromagnetic pollution. In this work, carbon-based materials are investigated because of their outstanding properties for electromagnetic shielding in the X-band frequency. The sputtering technique is employed because it allows large area deposition and is eminently suitable for mass production. Ti adhesion layer with a thickness of 30 nm was deposited on aluminum foils or Si substrates. Nominally 200-nm-thick nitrogen-doped carbon (C:N) films were then deposited on the Ti layer. Different N2 flow rates were introduced as n-type dopant during the deposition of C:N films. N2 flow rates for reactive sputtering of the C:N layer were 0 sccm, 1 sccm, 3 sccm, 5 sccm and 7 sccm, respectively. The thicknesses of film stacks were measured by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The crystal structures were analyzed by grazing incidence angle X-ray diffraction (GIAXRD). The compositions and C-N bonding configurations of the C:N films were examined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Raman scattering spectra were used to analyze the bonding structures of C:N films. Electrical properties, in terms of carrier density, mobility, and resistivity, were probed by Hall measurement system. The electromagnetic shielding efficiency is extracted from network analyzer in the frequency range of 8.2-12.4 GHz. The results show that the C:N film is composed of pyridinic, pyrrolic and graphitic structures, wherein only graphitic structure gives effective doping. The graphitic structure increases with increasing nitrogen flow rate, and show maximum for C:N film deposited at 3 sccm N2 flow rate, then decreases as the flow rate further increases. Excess nitrogen atoms would form pyridinic and pyrrolic structures, leading to a decline of graphitic structure and its doping effect. The electromagnetic shielding efficiency consists of reflection loss (SE_R) and absorption loss (SE_A). The absorption loss amplified with enhanced conductivity, and also shows maximum for C:N film deposited at 3 sccm N2 flow rate. It is evidenced that the absorption loss originates from the internal free carriers interacting with the electromagnetic field.

As electronic devices become popular in the application of military, industrial, communications, biomedical, and in space, some noise pollution, radio frequency interference (RFI), radio radiation, electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems are more serious. These problems will not only interfere with equipment but damage to human health. Therefore, in order to prevent these disturbances become more serious, developed with technology or electromagnetic shielding material is very important. This study wishing graphene as an electrically conductive filler, blended with water soluble polyvinyl alcohol. We make use of the good film-forming properties of polyvinyl alcohol, to prepared a composite film with electromagnetic shielding properties. This process does not use organic solvent, in line with concept of environmental protection. Furthermore, in order to achieve good graphene dispersion in polyvinyl alcohol substrate, we using dispersant to disperse graphene to achieve a better degree of conductivity, and have better electromagnetic shielding effects. On the other hand, silver nanowires have well conductivity and good stability. Therefore, in order to build a better electrically conductive network, this study added silver nanowires as second filler material. We also used glutaraldehyde to crosslink PVA to enhance the water resistance of composite. Finally, at ASTM-D4935-99 test specification, using vector network analyzer to detect the electromagnetic shielding effect of composite film to give a electromagnetic shielding effect, excellent workability, and nontoxic PVA / graphene / silver nanowires composite film.
