ABSTRACTTin oxide thin films on glass are used in a variety of applications ranging from transparent conductors to coupling layers to wear resistant coatings. The mechanical properties and wear resistance are crucial to most applications of tin oxide films. In the present study, ultrathin tin oxide films were sputter-deposited on the two different glass substrates. Nanoindentation, nanoscratch and nanowear experiments were performed on the tin oxide films with different thickness using a Hysitron TriboScope at different loads. Hardness and Young's modulus of elasticity were determined from the depth sensing load-displacement data. A lower friction coefficient was observed on the thinner film using the ramping load scratch test. Critical loads were determined by the ramping load scratch test and multi-slide nanowear tests on the tin oxide film deposited on the alkali contained commercial float glass (LOF-P16) glass. Discussion on the effect of surface chemistry on the mechanical properties was made.

A simple laboratory technique for the routine preparation of antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO) on float glass substrates (25×76×1mm3) was described. The process employed sol-gel dip-coating approach in the absolute ethanol solution of metal salts of tin (II) chloride dehydrate and antimony trichloride. Microstructural and morphological analyses of as-prepared films were performed at different conditions. With increase of annealing temperature from 400 to 550°C, the evolution of grain size and the morphologies of ATO films were analyzed by means of atom force microscopy (AFM). The studies on the morphological development suggested that higher annealing temperature led to a decrease in the surface roughness of the deposited films. The XRD patterns revealed that as-prepared ATO films were in the crystallization of a tetragonal rutile structure of SnO2 with highly (110) preferred orientation.

We report on the buckling morphologies and interfacial properties of silicon nitride films deposited on float glass substrates. The coexistence of straight-sided and telephone cord buckles can be observed in the silicon nitride films after annealing at a high temperature. The straight-sided structure is metastable and can spontaneously evolve into the telephone cord structure accompanied by the increase in the buckle width and height. The geometric parameters of various buckling structures (including the straight blister, telephone cord and their transition state) have been measured by optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The internal stress and interfacial adhesion of the films are evaluated and analyzed based on the continuum elastic theory. It is valid to measure the interfacial properties of thin films by simplifying the telephone cord buckle as a straight-sided structure. This measurement technique is suitable for all the film systems provided that the buckles can form in the film.

The cold spray TiO2 thin films were deposited on 5mm-thick float glass substrates using the sol containing nano-anatase TiO2. The effects of different heat treatment temperatures on optical properties were discussed. The properties of xerogel powder were analyzed using TG-DSC, the morphology and structure of TiO2 thin films were characterized by FESEM and XRD, the transmittance and absorption of TiO2 coated glass were investigated by UV-vis spectrophotometer. The results reveal that TiO2 in the film is still anatase phase after heat treatment at 350°C and 500°C. With the annealing temperatures increasing from 20°C to 500°C, the average crystal size increases just from 21.4 nm to 23.9nm, UV absorption of TiO2 coated glass increases from 2.2 to 2.7, visible light transmittance is high to about 80%.
