Aluminum fluoride (AlF(3)) is a low-refractive-index material widely used in coatings for deep-ultraviolet (DUV) optical systems, especially 193 nm laser systems. Low optical loss and stability are essential for film application. In this study, AlF(3)> thin films were prepared by thermal evaporation with a resistive h…

Nanowire arrays have typical distributions of coercive and interaction fields, as revealed in experiments by means of the first-order reversal curve (FORC) method. In an axial applied field, each nanowire is subjected to a state dependent interaction field created by all wires from the array, which strongly influences…

Abstract Epoxy/anhydride networks were modified, in the presence of benzyldimethylamine as catalyst, with two polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS), whose inorganic framework had a compact and stable Si‐O core and an organic substituent shell. The influence of the content and type of POSS during curing and on t…

We report on the properties of metal-semiconductor-field-effect-transistors (MESFETs) on ZnO films grown using the filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA) technique. FCVA ZnO films deposited on a-plane sapphire at 200 °C showed good structural and electrical properties that improved further on annealing at 800 °C in oxyge…

We have successfully prepared unique inorganic-organic hybrid materials that demonstrate excellent transparency and dewettability toward various alkane liquids (n-hexadecane, n-dodecane and n-decane) without relying on conventional surface roughening and perfluorination. Such coatings were made using a novel family of…

The charge confinement in silicon nanocrystals over the temperature range 35–300 K was investigated by complex impedance spectroscopy (CIS). A charge response found in the “dark” (i.e., no laser pumping) CIS spectrum indicated a frequency shift with temperature, which was well correlated with the temperature dependent…
