Zinc nitride films were deposited by ion sources-assisted magnetron sputtering with the use of Zn target (99.99% purity) on 7059 glass substrates. The films were characterized by XRD, SEM and EDS, the results of which show that the polycrystalline zinc nitride thin film can be grown on the glass substrates, the EDS spectrum confirmed the chemical composition of the films and the SEM images revealed that the zinc nitride thin films have a dense structure. Ultraviolet-visible-near infrared spectrophotometer was used to study the transmittance behaviors of zinc nitride thin films, which calculated the optical band gap by Davis Mott model. The results of the fluorescence emission spectra show the zinc nitride would be a direct band gap semiconductor material.

ABSTRACTIn situ optical methods are reviewed for characterization of phase transformation processes and evaluation of residual stress in solution-deposited metastable oxide films. Such low density films most often are deposited as disordered phases making them prone to crystallization and attendant densification when subjected to increased temperature and/or applied pressure. Inherent stress imparted during film deposition and its evolution during the transformation are evaluated from phonon frequency shifts seen in Raman spectra (TiO2) or from changes in the laser-induced fluorescence emission spectra for films containing rare earth (Sm+3:Y3Al5O12) or transition metal (Cr+3 :Al2O3) dopants. The data in combination with measured increases in line intensities intrinsic to the evolving phase are used to follow crystallization processes in thin films. In general, film deposition parameters are found to influence the crystallite ingrowth kinetics and the magnitude of stress and stress relaxation in the film during the transformation. The utility of these methods to probe crystallization phenomena in oxide films will be addressed.

The effects of various mono- and divalent ions on the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) were investigated. To determine the radius of PDC under various conditions a two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis technique was used. The radius of PDC cross-linked with glutaraldehyde at ionic strength 0.04 M was calculated to be 22.0 +/- 0.1 nm. The presence of K+, Na+ or HPO4(2-) prevented changes in electromobility and of the calculated radius of PDC induced by alteration in ionic strength. The fluorescence emission spectra of PDC depended on the ionic strength and monovalent cations. The fluorescence intensity of PDC increased in the presence of 80 mM K+, and decreased in the presence of 80 mM Na+ with no shift in the emission maximum wavelength. Changes in the ionic strength to which PDC was exposed resulted in alteration of the UV absorption spectra in the 230 nm region. These alterations were prevented by HPO4(2-), whereas Na+ or K+ ions had no effect on the UV absorption spectrum of PDC.
