ABSTRACTABSTRACT Au thin films were deposited using electron beam evaporation onto the surface of Nb metal to serve as thin film markers to study the growth mechanisms of NbS2 scales. Scanning Auger microscopy (SAM) was used to measure the depth profiles for the compositions of Au, Nb, S, Si and O across the sulfide scale. Three other marker experiments were also studied. All four marker experiments indicated that the inward diffusion of sulfur is the dominant process responsible for the growth of NbS2 scales.

We fabricated a thin film Peltier device based on an InSb film and a SbTe film. N-type InSb thin films were grown on sapphire (0001) substrate with InAsSb buffer layer by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy, and P-type SbTe thin films were deposited on the substrate by electron beam evaporation. N-type and P-type films were separated on the substrate, and between them, a Au thin film was deposited by direct-current sputtering. We observed partial Peltier effect in the device.

Al2O3 and SiO2 thin films have been prepared by electron beam evaporation at different oxygen flows. The influences of oxygen partial pressure on optical properties of Al2O3and SiO2 thin films have been studied. We have coated Al2O3and SiO2 without some oxygen background in the chamber. The results show that Al2O3 thin film does not have absorption even though it is coated without oxygen background in the chamber. On the other hand, without oxygen flow, SiO2 thin film has some absorption.  The packing density of the samples is studied by change in the spectrum of a coating with humidity

The fabricated photonic crystal biosensor device consists of SOG material and titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films as low and high refractive indexes dielectric layers, respectively. Nano-Imprinting Lithography (NIL) process was used to duplicate periodic line as grating structure from Ni-master mold onto SOG/glass. High refractive index dielectric thin film layer was deposited by using electron beam evaporation system. The surface morphology and thickness of thin film are characterized by atomic force microscope (AFM) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), respectively. The optical measurement system is set up to observed the sensitivity of fabricated device. A shift of reflected peak wavelength observed from DI-water and IPA was tested. The morphology and the thickness of the prepared dielectric thin films are affected to the efficiency of fabricated device.
