AbstractThe role of imperfections on the initiation and propagation of interface delaminations in compressed thin films has been analyzed using experiments with diamond-like carbon (DLC) films deposited onto glass substrates. The surface topologies and interface separations have been characterized by using the Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) and the Focused Ion Beam (FIB) imaging system. The lengths and amplitudes of numerous imperfections have been measured by AFM and the interface separations characterized on cross sections made with the FIB. Chemical analysis of several sites, performed using Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES), has revealed the origin of the imperfections. The incidence of buckles has been correlated with the imperfection length.

In order to improve the performance of silver nanowire (AgNW) flexible transparent conductive films (FTCFs), including the conductivity, uniformity, and reliability, the welding of high repetition rate femtosecond (fs) laser is applied in this work. Fs laser irradiation can produce local enhancement of electric field, which induce melting at the gap of the AgNWs and enhance electrical conductivity of nanowire networks. The overall resistivity of the laser-welded AgNW FTCFs reduced significantly and the transparency changed slightly. Meanwhile, PET substrates were not damaged during the laser welding procedure in particular parameters. The AgNW FTCFs can achieve a nonuniformity factor of the sheet resistance as 4.6% at an average sheet resistance of 16.1 Ω/sq and transmittance of 91%. The laser-welded AgNW FTCFs also exhibited excellent reliability against mechanical bending over 10,000 cycles. The welding process may open up a new approach for improvement of FTCFs photoelectric property and can be applied in the fabrication of silver nanostructures for flexible optoelectronic and integration of functional devices.

Comparative studies of sheet resistance and transmittance of CNT-TCFs treated by three different reagents were performed. The mechanism of an oxidation effect for removal of SDBS in CNT-TCFs by nitric acid was suggested.

Diamond like carbon (DLC) thin films were grown onto glass substrates by using direct current plasma enhance chemical vapour deposition (DC-PECVD) system. Films were deposited under fixed deposition pressure (4 x 10-1 Torr), substrate temperature (500°C) and deposition time (3 hours) but with different flow rate of precursor gas (methane, hydrogen and argon). The fabricated films were characterized by using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). XRD has revealed that the DLC films were having amorphous phase as the XRD spectrum did not show any obvious sharp peak. From AFM, it was discovered that the precursor gas flow rate has inversely relationship with the grain size and surface roughness of films.

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were synthesized by RF plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition using methane as carbon source. Effect of substrate on the growth of DLC films was investigated by using four different substrate materials, silicon wafer (100), glass, flat-polished and mirror-polished alumina. The carbon films were deposited at four different self-bias voltages (-157 V, -403 V, -500 V and -590 V) by changing the plasma power under fixed flow rate and working pressure. Raman analyses indicated that DLC films were deposited on silicon and glass substrates at the self-bias -403 V ~ -590 V, and polymer-like carbon films were obtained at -157 V. For the alumina substrates, different Raman results were observed for flat-polished and mirror-polished alumina substrates. The hardness of DLC films, deposited on silicon and glass substrates at the self-bias -403 V ~ -590 V, was within 16~20 GPa using nanoindentation technique.
