In the paper, ion-assisted e-beam evaporation (IAEE) method was used to deposit SiO2 film on CBA(CaO-Al2O3-BaO) glass substrate, and the influence of processing parameters on the performance of the thin films was studied. The result shows that the ion energy, substrate temperature and evaporating rate are key factors that affect the abrasion resistance and transmission of the SiO2 film. Heat treatment was used to eliminate the absorption of H2O in spectrum range of 2.7~3.5μm. SiO2 film with good abrasion resistance and high transmission in spectrum range 3.0~5.0μm was deposited successfully on the special glass substrate.

Aluminum films were prepared on the glass substrate by electron-beam vapor deposition. Nanoindentation tests were employed to determine the hardness and Youngs modulus of the Al film. The effect of substrate temperature on the mechanical properties of the Al film was investigated. Experimental results show that the hardness of Al film is increasing with the increase of the substrate temperature. It can also be observed that the Youngs modulus of Al film doesnt significantly depend on the substrate temperature.

Light-yellow glass was prepared by coating silver film on the flat glass substrate surface with sol-gel dip-coating process. The chemical composition and the valence state of elements on the surface of silver thin film deposited on glass substrate were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Results show that: elements of Na, Mg, Ca exist in the form of their respective stable state, such as Na2O, MgO, CaO, when heat treated at 500°C for 0.5h; but Si is unstable, and exhibit stoichiometrical disturbances. Results of chemical composition and their content by weight percent of silver thin film surface reveal that minute of quantity silver on the glass surface can lead to the glass with light-yellow color. The transmission of light for the light-yellow glass, deep-yellow glass and the flat glass substrate was also analyzed by spectrophotometer, and the results indicate that the light-yellow glass is capable of absorbing UV rays heavily.

Silver films were prepared on the glass substrate by electron-beam vapor deposition. The reflectivity of the Ag thin film was measured by a Perkin-Elmer Lambda spectrophotometer in the wavelength region of 450-680 nm. The experimental measurements of reflectivity were validated with the numerical results using the Essential Macleod software. The surface topology and microstructure of the film were examined by means of atomic force microscope (AFM). The effects of the thermal and humidity on the reflectivity of the Ag film were examined by the environmental test. Nanoindentation tests were employed to determine the hardness of the film. The measured hardness of the Ag thin film was found to depend on the penetration depth.

ABSTRACTThe optical and mechanical properties of TiO2 film prepared by ion-assisted e-beam evaporation have been examined in this research. Spectroscopic ellipsometry analysis revealed an inhomogeneous behavior in both optical property and growth structure, vertically from substrate to the top surface of the film. This phenomenon was further confirmed with the electron microscopic analyses. The effects of deposition rate, chamber pressure, anode voltage and current on the stress of TiO2 films were also investigated and reported. Further study showed that a structural homogeneous film could be obtained through TiO2-SiO2 co-evaporation.
