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.

The aim of this experiment was to use mechanical chopper coupling with CO2 laser ablation to reduce thermal effect on thermoelectric thin film fabrication. The average power at 10 W of sealed tube CO2 laser together with the mechanical chopper was used for the thermoelectric (TE) thin film fabrication on silicon substrate in vacuum system. The 1.02 ms of pulse duration with 600 Hz of repetition rate were generated by the optimized speed of chopper at 4500 rpm with 8 channels of circular apertures which were used for the reduction of thermal effect on the bismuth antimony telluride (Bi-Sb-Te) target. The experiment results illustrated the thickness and the thin films fabricated by using 10 seconds of exposure time with the chopper, illustrated the smaller grain size than without the chopper while the thickness increased as the exposure time increased at constant speed of chopper. The output efficiency referred to the ratio of the thickness per target lost in unit time which increased from 19.6 to 181.8 μm/g per hour, due to the increase of the exposure time with the chopper while without the chopper resulted in 55.0 μm/g per hour caused by the higher temperature raise on the thermoelectric target which affected to the as-deposited thin films and the re-evaporation occurred. In this experiment, the chopper speed was measured by the digital tachometer, the target loss was analyzed by the digital analytical balance and the morphology of the 600 tilted surface of thin film was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM).

In this chapter, we have report a list of synthesis methods (including both synthesis steps & heating conditions) used for thin film fabrication of perovskite ABO3 (BiFeO3, BaTiO3, PbTiO3 and CaTiO3) based multiferroics (in both single-phase and composite materials). The processing of high quality multiferroic thin film have some features like epitaxial strain, physical phenomenon at atomic-level, interfacial coupling parameters to enhance device performance. Since these multiferroic thin films have ME properties such as electrical (dielectric, magnetoelectric coefficient & MC) and magnetic (ferromagnetic, magnetic susceptibility etc.) are heat sensitive, i.e. ME response at low as well as higher temperature might to enhance the device performance respect with long range ordering. The magnetoelectric coupling between ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity in multiferroic becomes suitable in the application of spintronics, memory and logic devices, and microelectronic memory or piezoelectric devices. In comparison with bulk multiferroic, the fabrication of multiferroic thin film with different structural geometries on substrate has reducible clamping effect. A brief procedure for multiferroic thin film fabrication in terms of their thermal conditions (temperature for film processing and annealing for crystallization) are described. Each synthesis methods have its own characteristic phenomenon in terms of film thickness, defects formation, crack free film, density, chip size, easier steps and availability etc. been described. A brief study towards phase structure and ME coupling for each multiferroic system of BiFeO3, BaTiO3, PbTiO3 and CaTiO3 is shown.
