AbstractThe characteristics of indium tin oxide (ITO) films grown at room temperature on (100) Si and Coming glass substrates by an in situ ultraviolet-assisted pulsed laser deposition (UVPLD) technique have been investigated. The most important parameter, which influenced the optical and electrical properties of the grown films, was the oxygen pressure. For oxygen pressure below 1 mtorr, films were metallic, with very low optical transmittance and rather high resistivity values. The resistivity value decreased when using higher oxygen pressures while the optical transmittance increased. The optimum oxygen pressure was found to be around 10 mtorr. For higher oxygen pressures, the optical transmittance was better but a rapid degradation of the electrical conductivity was noticed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy investigations showed that ITO films grown at 10 mtorr oxygen are fully oxidized. All of the grown films were amorphous regardless of the oxygen pressure used.

FePt nanoparticles (NPs) were embedded into a single-crystal MgO host by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). It was found that its phase, microstructures and physical properties were strongly dependent on annealing conditions. Annealing induced a remarkable morphology variation in order to decrease its total free energy. H2/Ar (95% Ar + 5% H2) significantly improved the L10 ordering of FePt NPs, making magnetic coercivity reach 37 KOe at room temperature. However, the samples annealing at H2/Ar, O2, and vacuum all showed the presence of iron oxide even with the coverage of MgO. MgO matrix could restrain the particles’ coalescence effectively but can hardly avoid the oxidation of Fe since it is extremely sensitive to oxygen under the high-temperature annealing process. This study demonstrated that it is essential to anneal FePt in a high-purity reducing or ultra-high vacuum atmosphere in order to eliminate the influence of oxygen.

Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSCCO) and Bi-Pb-Sb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSSCCO) thin films were grown on MgO single crystal substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The deposition was carried out at room temperature during 90 minutes. A Nd:YAG excimer laser ( = 355 nm) with a 2 J/pulse energy density operated at 30 Hz was used. The distance between the target and substrate was kept constant at 4,5 cm. Nominal composition of the targets was Bi1,6Pb0,4Sr2Ca2Cu3O and Bi1,6Pb0,4Sb0,1Sr2Ca2Cu3OSuperconducting targets were prepared following a state solid reaction. As-grown films were annealed at different conditions. As-grown and annealed films were characterized by XRD, FTIR, and SEM. The films were prepared applying an experimental design. The relationship among deposition parameters and their effect on the formation of superconducting Bi-system crystalline phases was studied.
