Phase separated composite films of liquid crystals

Phase separation of liquid crystals from a solution with polymers has long been studied and used to prepare polymer stabilized and polymer dispersed structures. They are formed by spatially isotropic phase separation. A new mode, in which the phase separation proceeds anisotropically, has recently been discovered. Known as phase separated composite films (PSCOF), the resultant structures are made of adjacent parallel layers of liquid crystal and solidified polymer. PSCOFs have been made with nematic, ferroelectric (FLC), and antiferroelectric (AFLC) liquid crystals. Liquid crystals in PSCOFs exhibit electro-optical properties not observed in devices prepared by conventional methods, polymer dispersion, or polymer stabilization methods. Devices incorporating FLCs possess grey scale and switch 100 times faster at low fields than conventional surface stabilized devices. This method makes it possible to prepare very flexible devices and devices with liquid crystal film thickness comparable to optical wavelengths with great ease.     

Shear response of molecularly thin liquid films to an applied air stress

The shear response of molecularly thin liquid films on solid substrates when subjected to an applied air stress has been measured. The response corresponds to viscous friction while the same films sheared between two solid surfaces display static friction. These results show that molecularly thin liquid films partially confined by a single solid surface do not solidify as when confined between two solid surfaces. We are also able to observe several novel properties for liquid films on single solid surfaces not previously observed or expected.     

Polymeric like carbon films prepared from liquid gas and the effect of nitrogen

Polymeric like carbon (PLC) films are grown by a capacitance coupled RF-PECVD on the grounded electrode at room temperature from liquid gas (40% propane and 60% butane) in two regimes with nitrogen and without nitrogen gas. Films are characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) absorption and Raman spectroscopy. The result of FTIR analyses indicates that more than 90% of hydrogen atoms are bonded to carbon with sp³ hybridization. The abundance of CH₃ is more than that of CH₂ and this one is more than that of CH for carbon with sp³ hybridization in these films. The C 1s line of the XPS spectra is deconvoluted to several peaks that are attributed to the CH₃, CH₂ and CH terminations. The result of this deconvolution is consistent with FTIR results. AFM images show that the mean nanoparticle size is reduced from about 100 nm for films without nitrogen to less than 80 nm for films with nitrogen. This is in agreement with our Raman results. By addition of nitrogen to the feed gas, no variation in the C-H stretching vibration mode is observed. The effect of N-H bonds is observable in both FTIR and XPS spectra and a very small trace of N-C bonds is present only in deconvolution of N 1s line of XPS spectra. These results indicate that by addition of nitrogen to feed gas, internal structure of a-C:H nanoparticles is not changed but particle size is decreased. We suggest that the internal stress reduction due to nitrogen addition in the feed gas for PLC films can be related to decreasing of the a-C:H particle size.

Laser-induced jet formation and droplet ejection from thin metal films

An experimental study of femtosecond laser-induced jet formation and droplet ejection from thin metal films is presented. These processes are compared to liquid jet formation during laser-induced forward transfer of viscous liquids. As a result of this comparison, a mechanism explaining the main features of laser processing of thin metal films is proposed. According to this mechanism, laser-induced generation of a molten bump and its collapse are similar to the collapse of cavitation bubbles on a liquid?Cair interface. Material criteria required for realization of the jetting process are discussed and supported by experimental observations.     

Correlated ejection of electron-hole drops from a continuously generated electron-hole liquid in Ge

The photocurrent power spectra were measured in a Ge photodiode as a function of the incident optical intensity at 1.8 K and 4.3 K. The observed spectra showed a peak at low frequencies superimposed on a continuum which has a cut-off at high frequency. The interpretation of the results implies that the electron-hole drops coming from a same region of the photoexcited liquid are ejected periodically.

Laser induced self-phase modulation in nematic liquid crystals and effects of applied dc electric field

We investigated the ring-pattern characteristic of self-phase modulation in a homeotropic nematic liquid crystal cell induced by a focused Ar-ion laser beam. Laser induced self-phase retardation versus incident angle was experimentally studied, and good agreement with theory was found. Effects of applied dc electric field on the ring-pattern were studied, to our knowledge, for the first time. When the electric field was below a critical value, laser induced self-phase retardation could be varied by changing the electric field strength. Above this value, irregular shaped diffraction pattern accompanied by intense light scattering was observed, which is attributable to honeycomb-like domain formation.     

Deposition of diamond-like films from a high-velocity flow of a rarefied gas mixture

In contrast to the widespread deposition method of carbon films with the activation of gas mixtures on a hot wire, activation (dissociation of hydrogen and methane) is performed in a high-temperature channel formed by a tungsten coil in this study. From this channel, the gas is expanded to the substrate where deposition occurs. A film containing diamond crystals and hexagonal crystals having characteristic features of lonsdaleite is deposited at the channel temperature of 2100°C and the surrounding pressure of 20 mmHg. The diamond-like film is deposited from a high-velocity high-temperature un-ionized flow for the first time.     

Characterization of tungsten silicide films from a cold-pressed,vacuum-sintered composite target

Thin tungsten silicide films were deposited onto Si(100) wafers from a cold-pressed, vacuum- sintered composite target in a Varian 3180 sputtering system. The films were annealed in a Varian IA-200 rapid isothermal annealer, resulting in high-quality films of ±5% thickness uniformity and a low resistivity of 45 μΩcm. Variation of the film composition is observed when depositing the films with heated or voltage-biased substrates. We conclude that the historical problems associated with composite target preparation of sputtered silicides, i.e., low purity and poor mechanical integrity of the target, have been overcome.     

Thick films of viscous fluid coating a plate withdrawn from a liquid reservoir

We consider the deposition of a film of viscous liquid on a flat plate being withdrawn from a bath, experimentally and theoretically. For any plate speed U, there is a range of "thick" film solutions whose thickness scales like U{1/2} for small U. These solutions are realized for a partially wetting liquid, while for a perfectly wetting liquid the classical Landau-Levich-Derjaguin film is observed, whose thickness scales like U{2/3}. The thick film is distinguished from the Landau-Levich-Derjaguin film by a dip in its spatial profile at the transition to the bath. We calculate the phase diagram for the existence of stationary film solutions as well as the film profiles and find excellent agreement with experiment.     

Effect of a gas on the ejection of particles from the free surface of a sample subjected to a shock wave with various intensities

In view of the possible effect of contamination of a plasma by metal particles on the operation of a number of facilities or on the detection of the motion of liners by Doppler methods, a particular attention has been recently focused on the problem of the ejection of particles from the shock-loaded free surface of a sample or on the “dusting” problem. Most information concerns the dusting source associated with the roughness of the surface, manufacturing technology, and the defectiveness and aging of a material. Factors affecting this process such as the profile and amplitude of the pressure on the front of the shock wave arriving at the free surface of the sample, the presence of the gas in front of the free surface, and the pressure in this gas are less studied.
