Pulsed-laser ablation has been widely used to produce high-quality thin films of YBa2Cu3O7-δ on a range of substrate materials. The nonequilibrium nature of the process allows congruent deposition of oxides with complex stoichiometrics. In the high power density regime produced by the UV excimer lasers the ablated species includes a mixture of neutral atoms, molecules and ions. All these species play an important role in thin-film deposition. However, changes in the deposition parameters have been shown to affect the microstructure of thin YBa2Cu3O7-δ films. The formation of metastable configurations is possible because at the low substrate temperatures used, only shortrange rearrangement on the substrate surface can occur. The parameters associated directly with the laser ablation process, those determining the nature of the process, e g. thermal or nonthermal volatilization, have been classified as ‘primary parameters'. Other parameters may also affect the microstructure of the thin film. In this paper, the effects of these ‘secondary parameters' on the microstructure of YBa2Cu3O7-δ films will be discussed. Examples of 'secondary parameters' include the substrate temperature and the oxygen partial pressure during deposition.

<div style="text-align: justify;">Thin film solar cell experience fast development, especially for thin film solar cell CdTe and Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS). However, the usage of rare element in the nature such as In, Te, and Ga and toxic such as Cd give limitation in the future development and production growth in big scale. Development of other alternative compound with maintain the profit of electronic and optic character which get from CIGS chalcopyrite compound will be explain. Compound of Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe) is downward compound from CIGS with substitute the In and Ga element with Zn and Sn. The compound kesterite structure can be modified with variation of chalcogen element to get wanted character in solar cell application. Efficiency record of photovoltaic devices conversion used this compound or downward reach 9.7%.©2016 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.</div>

Tin dioxide (SnO2) has been extensively studied and used as gas sensors to detect toxic gases such as CO, NOxand flammable gases like H2.[l] Recently, considerable researches have focused on thin film sensors due to their high performance as well as their integration compatibility with semiconductor technology for making microsensors and sensor arrays. [2] The performance of thin film sensors is remarkably influenced by the way they were fabricated.[3] Among various deposition techniques, pulsed laser deposition (PLD) has shown great prominence in the deposition of a wide variety of oxide thin film materials such as high Tc superconductors, semiconductors and dielectrics. in this work we present our experimental results on tin dioxide films deposited using pulsed laser ablation on sapphire (α -Al2O3) substrates with different surface orientations.Tin oxide films with a thickness of 100 nm were deposited on the (1012) and (0001) sapphire by pulsed laser ablation of ceramic SnO2 targets.
