Alumina is a widely used ceramic material due to its high hardness, wear resistance and dielectric properties. The study of phase transformation and its correlation to the mechanical properties of alumina is essential. In this study, interfacial adhesion properties of alumina thin films are studied using cross-sectional nanoindentation (CSN) technique. Alumina thin films are deposited at 200 and 700 °C, on Si (100) substrates with a weak Silica interface, using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process. Effect of annealing on the surface morphology of the thin films is studied using atomic force microscopy. Xray diffraction studies revealed that alumina thin films are amorphous in nature at 200 °C and polycrystalline with predominant gamma alumina phase at 700 °C.

AbstractWe have developed a new pulsed laser deposition technique using two Nd:YAG laser beams for the nucleation of silicon carbide (SiC) crystalline nano-particles and single crystalline SiC thin films. Transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy observation suggest that several nanometer size SiC particles can be prepared by the new pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method using two Nd:YAG laser beams (1064nm and 532nm). X ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements suggest that the silicon/carbon composition ratio of the prepared SiC thin films can be controlled by laser fluence and wavelength.

An effective way to prepare a robust CuInSe2 (CIS) target for subsequent vapor depositions of thin films is suggested in this work. The technique involves addition of excess Se to presynthesized CIS powder followed by cold pressing and sintering at a temperature as low as 300 °C. Phase-pure chalcopyrite CIS films were prepared at a substrate temperature of 300 °C from targets that contained different amounts of excess Se. The average size of particulates, typical of the pulsed laser deposition process, and their surface coverage decreased with increasing Se content up to 50 wt% in the targets. Films grown from the target with 50 wt% excess Se exhibited a hole concentration of ˜3 × 1019 cm−3 and a Hall mobility of ˜2 cm2/Vs. With the decrease of substrate temperature to room temperature, the resistivity increased from 1.1 × 10−1 to ˜7.5 × 108 Ω·cm, which is attributed to the potential contributions of Se interstitials, CuIn, and VIn defects.
