Film thickness dependence of the magnetic resonance in Fe–SiO2 nanocomposites

The magnetic properties of Fe–SiO₂ nanogranular composite thin films were studied as a function of film thickness and Fe concentration, f, using ferromagnetic resonance at X-band (9.4 GHz) and Q-band (35 GHz). Films with an Fe volume percent ranging from 17% to 70% were fabricated from a mosaic target using RF sputtering techniques. Film thickness was varied between 10 and 200 nm. From measurements made at room temperature with the external field applied parallel and perpendicular to the film plane, it was possible to determine an almost linear dependence of the effective anisotropy field with Fe concentration. Small differences observed between X- and Q-band, specially at low f, were attributed to the effects that the different fields applied during the experiment cause on the magnetic state of the sample. No systematic change of the effective field or the g value was observed in films of different thickness. The absorption line width, on the other hand, was found to depend on film thickness indicating a larger distribution of particle shape and size with increasing film thickness. A maximum in the line width was observed around f30–35% and is probably caused by the transition from single domain ferromagnetic clusters to superparamagnetic particles.     

Beneficial effect of rapid recurrent thermal annealing on magnetic properties of SmCo-based films

The effects of conventional thermal annealing (CTA) and rapid recurrent thermal annealing (RRTA) on the magnetic properties of the SmCo-based films were investigated. The results show that the CTA-treated films exhibit amorphous structure with coercivity insensitively depending on annealing parameters as anticipated. As for the RRTA-treated films, single TbCu₇-type phase structure with well crystallization is observed. The coercivity of the RRTA-treated films is strongly correlated with annealing parameters, and its optimum value is larger than that of the CTA-treated films. It is suggested that the RRTA treatment has beneficial effects on the magnetic properties of the SmCo-based films.     

Thermal properties of 15-mol% gadolinia doped ceria thin films prepared by pulsed laser ablation

Thermal properties of 15-mol% gadolinia doped ceria thin films (Ce_0.85Gd_0.15 O_1.925) prepared by pulsed laser ablation on silicon substrates in the temperature range 473–973 K are presented. Thermal diffusivities and thermal conductivities were evaluated using photoacoustic spectroscopy. The influence of grain size on thermal properties of the films as a function of deposition temperature is studied. It is observed that the thermal diffusivity and the conductivity of these films decreases up to 873 K and then increases with substrate temperatures. The thermal properties obtained in these films are discussed on the basis of influence of grain size on phonon scattering.

Structural and optoelectronic properties of antimony tin sulphide thin films deposited by thermal evaporation techniques

Thin films of SnSb₂S₄ have been prepared on glass substrate by using thermal evaporation techniques. The films were annealed in argon gas at low pressure in sealed glass ampoules at 85 °C, 150 °C, 275 °C and 325 °C. XRD of the films reveal that the low temperature annealed films are poly crystalline while the as deposited films and high annealed films are in amorphous states. There is no adequate variation in the photoconductivity response of the amorphous and crystalline phases. The transmittance of the films is low and having no transmittance below 740 nm. The band gap calculated by ellipsometry technique is in the range of 1.82–3.1 eV. The films have n-type conductivity but the film annealed at 325 °C show p-type conductivity.     

Evolution of structural and magnetic properties of sputtered nanocrystalline Co thin films with thermal annealing

Ultrafine grain films of cobalt prepared using ion-beam sputtering have been studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray reflectivity (XRR), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) measurements. As-prepared films have very smooth surface owing to the ultrafine nature of the grains. Evolution of the structure and morphology of the film with thermal annealing has been studied and the same is correlated with the magnetic properties. Above an annealing temperature of 300 °C, the film gradually transforms from HCP to FCC phase that remains stable at room temperature. A significant contribution of the surface energy, due to small grain size, results in stabilisation of the FCC phase at room temperature. It is found that other processes like stress relaxation, grain texturing and growth also exhibit an enhanced rate above 300 °C, and may be associated with an enhanced mobility of the atoms above this temperature. Films possess a uniaxial anisotropy, which exhibits a non-monotonous behaviour with thermal annealing. The observed variation in the anisotropy and coercivity with annealing can be understood in terms of variations in the internal stresses, surface roughness, and grain structure.     

Consolidation of hydrogenation–disproportionation–desorption–recombination processed Nd–Fe–B magnets by spark plasma sintering

We have successfully consolidated hydrogenation–disproportionation–desorption–recombination (HDDR) processed Nd–Fe–Co–Zr–B–Ga powder by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The field compacted samples were sintered at different temperatures (T_S) from 550 to 600 °C with compressive pressure of 80 MPa for 20 min. Microstructural investigations by transmission electron microscopy indicated that the sintered specimen exhibits Nd₂Fe₁₄B grains of ~300 nm with Nd-rich grain boundary phase. The optimum magnetic properties of B_r: 1.22 T, H_c: 928 kA/m, _BH_c: 600 kA/m, (BH)_max: 210 kJ/m³ were obtained in the sample sintered at 550 °C. The strategy for further improving the coercivity and remanence is discussed based on the microstructure-property relationships.     

Microstructure and magnetic properties of CoFe_2O_4 thin films deposited on Si substrates with an Fe_3O_4 under-layer

The microstructure and magnetic properties of cobalt ferrite thin films deposited by the sputtering method on an Fe3O4 under-layer were investigated at different post-annealing temperatures.Results show that the Fe3O4 under-layer can accelerate the grain growth of cobalt ferrite films due to the phase transformation of the Fe3O4 under-layer at about 400°C-500°C.By introducing the Fe3O4 under-layer,cobalt ferrite nanocrystalline thin films with high coercivity can be obtained at lower post-annealing temperat...

Effect of environment and heat treatment on the optical properties of RF-sputtered SnO2 thin films

Thin films of SnO₂ were deposited by RF-magnetron sputtering on quartz substrates at room temperature in an environment of Ar and O₂. The XRD pattern shows amorphous nature of the as-deposited films. The optical properties were studied using the reflectance and transmittance spectra. The estimated optical band gap (E_g) values increase from 4.15 to 4.3 eV as the Ar gas content decreases in the process gas environment. The refractive index exhibits an oscillatory behavior that is strongly dependent on the sputtering gas environment. The Urbach energy is found to decrease with increase in band gap. The band gap is found to decrease on annealing the film. The role of oxygen defects is explored in explaining the variation of optical parameters.

Magnetization of Fe‐oxide based nanocomposite tuned by surface charging

Aiming at a voltage‐control of magnetism, the magnetization of a porous γ‐Fe₂O₃–Pt nanocomposite is studied under the influence of charging the surfaces of the porous structure in an electrolyte. Reversible variations of the magnetization of up to 10.4% could be achieved upon charging in the regime where electrochemical adsorption and desorption occurs. The observed variation of the magnetization with electrochemical charging is assigned to the γ‐Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles whereas the conductive network of Pt nanoparticles is necessary for charging.

Novel fabrication of net-like and flake-like Fe doped TiO2 thin films

New morphologies of net-like and flake-like TiO₂ thin films with different concentrations of Fe dopant were successfully fabricated by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) process of Ti plates and a subsequent chemical treatment of the as-prepared MAO-TiO₂ thin films. It was found that Fe ions can be easily introduced into the MAO-TiO₂ samples with the increase concentration of K₄(FeCN)₆·3H₂O precursor, and the amount of Fe determined the morphologies of TiO₂ thin films after chemical treatment; net-like morphology was observed with low Fe dopant, while it transformed to a flake-like one when Fe exceeds 1.7 at.%. UV-vis spectroscopy test showed that the absorption edge of the Fe ions doped TiO₂ thin films with new morphologies has an obvious red shift.     

Influence of Fe ions in characteristics and optical properties of mesoporous titanium oxide thin films

Fe-doped mesoporous titanium dioxide (M-TiO₂-Fe) thin films have been prepared on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass substrates by sol–gel and spin coating methods. All films exhibited mesoporous structure with the pore size around 5–9 nm characterized by small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXRD) and further confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Raman spectra illustrated that lower Fe-doping contributed to the formation of nanocrystalline of M-TiO₂-Fe thin films. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) data indicated that the doped Fe ions exist in forms of Fe³⁺, which can play a role as e⁻ or h⁺ traps and reduce e⁻/h⁺ pair recombination rate. Optical properties including refractive indices/n, energy gaps/E_g and Urbach energy width/E₀ of the thin films were estimated and investigated by UV/vis transmittance spectra. The presence of Fe content extended the light absorption band and decreased the values of n, implying enhanced light response and performance on dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). The optimum Fe content in M-TiO₂-Fe thin films is determined as 10 mol%, for its compatibility of well crystalline and well potential electron transfer performance.     

Structural, optical and magnetic properties of (ZnO)1−x(MnO2)x thin films deposited at room temperature

The structural, magnetic and optical properties of (ZnO)_1−x(MnO₂)_x (with x = 0.03 and 0.05) thin films deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) were studied. The pellets used as target, sintered at different temperatures ranging from 500 °C to 900 °C, were prepared by conventional solid state method using ZnO and MnO₂ powders. The observation of non-monotonic shift in peak position of most preferred (1 0 1) ZnO diffraction plane in XRD spectra of pellets confirmed the substitution of Mn ions in ZnO lattice of the sintered targets. The as-deposited thin film samples are found to be polycrystalline with the preferred orientation mostly along (1 1 0) diffraction plane. The UV-vis spectroscopy of the thin films revealed that the energy band gap exhibit blue shift with increasing Mn content which could be attributed to Burstein-Moss shift caused by Mn doping of the ZnO. The deposited thin films exhibit room temperature ferromagnetism having effective magnetic moment per Mn atom in the range of 0.9-1.4μ_B for both compositions.     

Improvement of electrical properties of Sr-modified (Pb,Ca)TiO3 thin films grown by soft chemistry route

Strontium and calcium-modified lead titanate (Pb_0.70Ca_0.15Sr_0.15)TiO₃ soft chemistry-derived thin films were prepared on platinum-coated silicon substrate by spin-coating method. Investigations were made on the structure, surface morphology and electrical properties of the film. The results by XRD and FE-SEM showed that the film exhibits a pure tetragonal perovskite phase and an average grain size of about 50-60 nm, respectively. Electrical measurements of a metal-ferroelectric-metal type capacitor exhibited a stable and switchable electrical polarization in the film. The structure of the Au/PCST/Pt capacitor showed well-saturated hysteresis loops at an applied voltage of 300 kV/cm with remanent polarization and coercive field values of 22 μC/cm² and 100 kV/cm, respectively. At 100 kHz, the dielectric constant and the dielectric loss of the (Pb_0.70Ca_0.15Sr_0.15)TiO₃ thin film with thickness 240 nm were 528 and 0.05, respectively.     

The morphology and structural properties of InP thin films deposited by spray pyrolysis method

InP film samples were prepared by spray pyrolysis technique using aqueous solutions of InCl₃ and Na₂HPO₄, which were atomized with compressed air as carrier gas onto glass substrates at 500 °C with different thicknesses of the films. The structural properties of the samples have been determined by using X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that the crystal structure of the InP films is polycrystalline hexagonal. The orientations for all the obtained films are along the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate. It is observed that the crystallite sizes of the films increase with the thickness of the film up to 616 nm. The changes observed in the morphology and structural phases related to the film thickness have been discussed in detail.
