ABSTRACT; This paper describes the use of advanced circuitry nondestructive eddy current techniques to map organic Thin Films. Surface profiles, contour maps and diameter scans are obtained from the process wafers tested providing the necessary information to control the processes for maximum yield.

Using high-brilliance high-energy synchrotron X-ray radiation, for the first time the total scattering of a thin organic glass film deposited on a strongly scattering inorganic substrate has been measured in transmission mode. The organic thin film was composed of the weakly scattering pharmaceutical substance indomethacin in the amorphous state. The film was 130 µm thick atop a borosilicate glass substrate of equal thickness. The atomic pair distribution function derived from the thin-film measurement is in excellent agreement with that from bulk measurements. This ability to measure the total scattering of amorphous organic thin films in transmission will enable accuratein situstructural studies for a wide range of materials.

We report the observation of a screw-dislocation-driven spiral growth of DMDPC organic thin films. The existence of screw dislocations was clearly confirmed by the observations of outcropped stepsand spiral fringes.

Nanoscale layer-engineering using the combined atomic/molecular layer deposition (ALD/MLD) technique for the fabrication of oxide–organic thin-film superlattices is an attractive way to tailor the performance of thermoelectric materials as it potentially allows us to suppress thermal conductivity without significantly hindering the electrical transport properties.

AbstractInorganic erbium-doped glasses are widely used in telecommunications due to the sharp intra-atomic 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 transition in the 4f orbital of erbium resulting in an emission at ∼ 1.5 μm, which is the low loss window of silica optical fibres. The limited erbium concentration of about 1020 ions.cm−3 in inorganic erbium-doped glasses and the low absorption coefficient of the Er3+ ions, imply that relatively long lengths of fibre are required. The organic erbium complexes present higher absorption cross sections due to the photosensitization of erbium by organic conjugated ligands and broader emission bands than those of the free Er3+ ion. Such properties open the possibility to develop compact, low power and broadband infrared emitting devices. We present the study of a highly doped organic thin film obtained from organic erbium complexes deposited by a vacuum sublimation technique. This deposition method allows the realization of an erbium-doped thin film without the help of an organic polymer matrix, which is a potential source of vibrationnal luminescence quenching. The ligands used in the present study are fluorinated in order to limit the vibrationnal quenching of the ligand itself, and to increase the volatility of the complexes. In this paper, we report the synthesis, the sublimation process and the characterization of the thin films.

Thin films of poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) were prepared on pre-cleaned glass substrates by Dip Coating Method. FTIR spectrum was used to identify the functional groups present in the prepared films. The vibrational peaks observed at 1260 cm-1 and 851 cm-1 are assigned to C–C stretching and CH rocking of PVA.The characteristic band appearing at 1432 cm-1 is assigned to C–H bend of CH2 of PVA. The thickness of the prepared thin films were measured by using an electronic thickness measuring instrument (Tesatronic-TTD20) and cross checked by gravimetric method. XRD spectra indicated the amorphous nature of the films.Surface morphology of the coated films was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The surface revealed no pits and pin holes on the surface. The observed surface morphology indicated that these films could be used as dielectric layer in organic thin film transistors and as drug delivery system for wound healing.
