The long-wavelength edge of the fundamental absorption band of thin Y2O3 films obtained by radiofrequency ion-plasma sputtering is investigated. The edge of interband absorption after annealing of the films in an atmosphere of argon, oxygen, or a mixture of these gases is shown to be approximated well by the Urbach empirical rule. Diffractograms of the obtained films were studied and a model of a heavily doped or defective semiconductor in the quasi-classical approximation was used to analyze the experimental results. This model allows determining the radius of the basic electronic state, the screening radius, and the rootmean-square potential depending on the sputtering atmosphere.

The paper presents the results of the synthesis of thin aluminum nitride films by reactive ion-plasma sputtering and the study of their properties with the aim of using as the protective coatings for the high-power AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs semiconductor laser heterostructures. EDS studies and ellipsometry showed that at a residual pressure in the chamber of the order of ~10-5 Torr, a layer of aluminum oxynitride is formed in the films. In this case, the film-substrate heterointerface can undergo oxidation. However, AlN films with a thickness of the order of 100 nm grown in a pure nitrogen medium with a residual pressure of ~10-7 Torr apparently do not contain oxygen, and can reliably prevent its penetration into the heterointerface region. Potentially, they can serve as effective protection for oxidation sensitive heterostructures.

The synthesis and study of the structure and photochromic properties of the new salt spiropyrans of the indoline series containing chlorine and bromine atoms as a substituent at the 6' position in 2H-chromene moiety are presented. The structure of the obtained compounds was confirmed by NMR 1H spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The compounds are photochromic; the long-wavelength maximum of the absorption band of their open photoinduced form has a significant hypsochromic shift, and the lifetime substantially increases in comparison with the fluorine analog.

AbstractA study of the surface topography and optical characteristics of thin AlN films used as passivating and antireflection coatings deposited on n -GaAs (100) substrates by reactive ion-plasma sputtering is reported. It was found that the process conditions affect the structure and the optical characteristics of the films, which makes it possible to obtain coatings with prescribed parameters. An analysis of the results furnished by ellipsometry and atomic-force microscopy of the surface shows that the refractive index of the films is correlated with the surface structure.

This work analyses the characteristics of functional coatings obtained by vacuum ion-plasma sputtering. These coatings have three-layer multiphase structure created as a result of condensing aluminium and titanium according to a certain programme. The article presents the results of investigation into the heat-resistance of ion-plasma coatings based on Ti-Al-N for titanium alloy parts of gas turbine engines. Analysis of the oxidation process between a sample surface and coatings within the range of 500–825 °C was carried out. The basic features of the process of coating destruction under high-temperature oxidation conditions were determined by means of scanning electron microscopy. The results of the tests made it possible to state that the coatings developed are able to operate at temperatures of 600–750 °C.

A modern method of processing steel parts by ion-plasma sputtering in vacuum is proposed as a solution to the problem of friction and wear. An ion-plasma coating based on Ti-Cu has been developed. Such parameters as microhardness, roughness, friction coefficient of the intermetallic, conglomerate and nitride coatings have been studied
