In the present work, structural, optical, electrical and sensing properties have been studied for the (TiO2/rGO) nanocomposite prepared by the pulse laser ablation method in the liquid, where the Nd-Yag laser was used, and the two wave pulses (1064-532) and 300mJ, which were deposited on glass bases , The structural properties have been investigated by X-Ray diffraction technique analysis and morphological by atomic force microscope (AFM), The particle size of the membranes is less in the films prepared using wavelength (1064) than in the prepared films using wavelength (532). The optical properties of the nanocomposites have been determined by using the optical transmittance measurements in the spectral region from (300- 1100) nm. Electrical properties such as I-V properties was also studied. sensing properties measurements showed good Humidity sensitivity within the range (20-80) % RH.

Nanoparticles NPSof cadmium oxide CdO were generated by laser ablation of a solid target (cadmium) in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) solution. CdO colloidal nanoparticles have been synthesized by laser ablation Nd:YAG (1064 nm, 100 pulses, pulse energy= 400 mJ) when the solid target CdO was immersed in PVP. Structure, topography and optical properties of the CdO nanoparticles NPShave been studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM) and the UV-Vis absorption respectively.

ABSTRACTWe prepared colossal magnetoresistive La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 thin films on the MgO, SrTiO3 and LaAlO3 single crystal substrates using KrF excimer pulsed laser ablation technique. The structural and electrical properties of the La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 thin films which were strained by the lattice mismatch are reported. The in-plane lattice mismatch between the La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 and MgO, SrTiO3 and LaAlO3 substrates are -7.8 %, -0.5 % and +2.3 %, respectively. The X-ray diffraction spectra of the films exhibited c-axis orientation. In the case of the La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 / LaAlO3 thin films with thickness over 100 nm, the divided (00l) peaks were observed. The surface morphology and transport property of the strongly stressed La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 / LaAlO3 were different from those of La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 / MgO and La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 / SrTiO3thin films.

AbstractWe have prepared highly textured superconducting thin films from Bi1.5pb0.5Ca3Sr2Cu4Ox (2324) on (100) YS-ZrO2 (Yttria stabilized zirconia) and Bi1.5Pb0.5Ca2Sr2Cu3°x (2223) on LaAlC-3 (100) and MgO (100) substrates at 650°C by pulsed laser ablation method.These films showed 2212 type of phase of the (BiPb)2(Ca,Sr)n+1CunO2n+4+5 family with onset transition temperature ( Tc ) ~ 110 K, confirming our earlier observations of 110 K superconductivity in a n = 2 bulk material. Thin films deposited from 2324 bulk target on YS-Z1O2 showed zero resistance temperature (Tco ) of 68 K but post annealing for one hour at 400°C in oxygen improved Tco from 68 K to 82 K. Thin films from 2223 target on LaAlO3 ( 100 ) and MgO ( 100 ) exhibited a Tco of 65 K and 74 K respectively while onset remained the same at 110 K. Further annealing at 400°C for one hour in oxygen did not show any improvement in Tco. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Rutherford backscattering (RBS) channeling studies were performed on these films for correlation between crystal structure, microstructure and superconducting properties. X-ray diffraction patterns indicated 2212 type phase with a= 5.39 Å and c=30.76 Å; preferential orientation of c-axis perpendicular to the substrate was observed. The lattice parameter and x-ray diffraction patterns were found to be invariant with annealing treatments.

A series of ZnO:Al (AZO) thin films was prepared on quartz at different substrate temperature using magnetron sputtering with high deposited rate of 67 nm/min. The structural, electrical and optical properties of these films were investigated as a function of substrate deposition temperature ranging from room temperature to 500 °C. The surface micrograph of AZO film deposited at room temperature was measured by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an atomic force microscope (AFM). The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) test show that all the films have a (002) preferential orientation. The best electrical property was obtained at 500 °C, the resistivity was 9.044×10-4 ohm•cm, and the corresponding carrier concentration and mobility were 3.379×1020 /cm3 and 20.45 m2/Ns, respectively. What's more, all the films show a high optical transmittance.

We have studied the effect of applying an external magnetic field on the characteristics of iron oxide (IO) nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized by pulsed laser ablation in dimethylformamide (DMF). The NPs synthesized with and without applying of magnetic field were characterized by Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), UV–Vis absorption, scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). SEM results confirmed that the particle size was decreased after applying magnetic field.

The stibiotantalite (ABO4) family includes a number of ferroelectrics and antiferroelectrics with excellent potential for applications. We report the deposition of phase-pure, polycrystalline thin films of BiNbO4 on Si(100) substrates using pulsed laser ablation. The deposition conditions were optimized with respect to substrate temperature, laser parameters, and the ambient oxygen pressure. The films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, energy dispersive x-ray analysis, and Raman spectroscopy, while their microstructure was studied by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Dielectric hysteresis studies indicated that films with a thickness below ≈250 nm are ferroelectric, while thicker ones are antiferroelectric.

AbstractHf metal thin films were deposited on Si substrates using a pulsed laser deposition technique in vacuum and in ammonia ambients. The films were then oxidized at 400 °C in 300 Torr of O2. Half the samples were oxidized in the presence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation from a Hg lamp array. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and grazing angle X-ray diffraction were used to compare the crystallinity, roughness, and composition of the films. It has been found that UV radiation causes roughening of the films and also promotes crystallization at lower temperatures.Furthermore, increased silicon oxidation at the interface was noted with the UVirradiated samples and was shown to be in the form of a mixed layer using angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Incorporation of nitrogen into the film reduces the oxidation of the silicon interface.

Microfibers were obtained from organic low molecular weight compounds based on heteroaromatic and aromatic rings connected by aliphatic spacers. The obtaining of microfibers was proved by scanning electron microscopy. The deciphering of the mechanism of microfiber formation has been elucidated by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy measurements. By exciting with light of different wavelength, florescence microscopy revealed a specific optical response, recommending these materials for light sensing applications.

ABSTRACTIn this article we report the first nanoparticle-derived route to smooth, dense, phase-pure CdTe thin films. Capped CdTe nanoparticles were prepared by injection of a mixture of Cd(CH3)2, (n-C8H17)3 PTe and (n-C8H17)3P into (n-C8H17)3PO at elevated temperatures. The resultant nanoparticles 32-45 Å in diameter were characterized by x-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. CdTe thin film deposition was accomplished by dissolving CdTe nanoparticles in butanol and then spraying the solution onto SnO2-coated glass substrates at variable susceptor temperatures. Smooth and dense CdTe thin films were obtained using growth temperatures approximately 200 °C less than conventional spray pyrolysis approaches. CdTe films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Auger electron spectroscopy. An increase in crystallinity and average grain size as determined by x-ray diffraction was noted as growth temperature was increased from 240 to 300 °C. This temperature dependence of film grain size was further confirmed by atomic force microscopy with no remnant nanocrystalline morphological features detected. UV-Vis characterization of the CdTe thin films revealed a gradual decrease of the band gap (i.e., elimination of nanocrystalline CdTe phase) as the growth temperature was increased with bulk CdTe optical properties observed for films grown at 300 °C.
