Electrical properties of conductive thin films, that are produced by vacuum evaporation on the dielectric substrates, and which properties depend on their thickness, usually are anisotropic i.e. they have uniaxial anisotropy. If the condensate grow on dielectric substrates on which plane electrical field E is created the transverse voltage U⊥ appears on the boundary of the film in the direction perpendicular to E. Transverse voltage U⊥ depends on the angle γ between the applied magnetic field H and axis of light magnetisation. When electric field E is applied to continuous or grid layers, U⊥ and resistance R of layers are changed by changing γ. It means that value of U⊥ is the measure of anisotropy magnitude. Increasing voltage U0 , which is created by E, U⊥ increases to certain magnitude and later decreases. The anisotropy of continuous thin layers is excited by inequality of conductivity tensor components σ0 ≠ σ⊥. The reason of anisotropy is explained by the model which shows that properties of grain boundaries are defined by unequal probability of transient of charge carrier.

This work characterizes the mechanical and opto-electric properties of Aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD), where various depositing temperature, 100, 125, 150, 175, and 200 °C are considered. The transmittance, microstructure, electric resistivity, adhesion, hardness, and Young’s modulus of the deposited thin films are tested by using spectrophotometer, X-ray diffraction, Hall effect analyzer, micro scratch, and nanoindentation, respectively. The results show that the AZO thin film deposited at 200 °C behaves the best electric properties, where its resistance, Carrier Concentration and mobility reach 4.3×10-4 Ωcm, 2.4×1020 cm-3, and 60.4 cm2V-1s-1, respectively. Furthermore, microstructure of the AZO films deposited by ALD is much better than those deposited by sputtering.

In this study, [Co/Ni]2/PtMn thin films with different PtMn thicknesses (2.7 to 32.4 nm) were prepared on Si/SiO2 substrates. The post-deposition perpendicular magnetic field annealing (MFA) processes were carried out to modify the structures and magnetic properties. The MFA process also induced strong interlayer diffusion, rendering a less sharp interface between Co and Ni and PtMn layers. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) lattice image analysis has shown that the films consisted of face-centered tetragonal (fct) PtMn (ordered by MFA), body-centered cubic (bcc) NiMn (due to intermixing), in addition to face-centered cubic (fcc) Co, Ni, and PtMn phases. The peak shift (2-theta from 39.9° to 40.3°) in X-ray diffraction spectra also confirmed the structural transition from fcc PtMn to fct PtMn after MFA, in agreement with those obtained by lattice images in TEM. The interdiffusion induced by MFA was also evidenced by the depth profile of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Further, the magnetic properties measured by vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) have shown an increased coercivity in MFA-treated samples. This is attributed to the presence of ordered fct PtMn, and NiMn phases exchange coupled to the ferromagnetic [Co/Ni]2 layers. The vertical shift (Mshift = −0.03 memu) of the hysteresis loops is ascribed to the pinned spins resulting from perpendicular MFA processes.

The scaling behavior of the effective activation energy of high-quality epitaxial c-oriented Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca ( Cu 1-x Co x)2 O d thin films with 0≤x ≤0.025 has been studied as a function of temperature and magnetic field. For all samples, the effective activation energy scales as U(T, μoH)=Uo(1-T/T c )mHn with exponent m=1.25±0.03, n=-1/2 and the field scaling 1/μoH and -UμoH for thick films and ultra thin films, respectively. The results are discussed taking into account of the influence of the Co substitution with a model in which U(T, H) arises from plastic deformations of the viscous flux liquid above the vortex-glass transition temperature.
