Growth and characterization of oxide thin films by filtered cathodic vacuum arc and their applications

This study deals with three kinds of metal oxide thin films, namely zirconium oxide, titanium oxide and aluminium oxide, prepared by filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA). The influences of various process parameters (e.g. working pressure, substrate temperature & bias, etc.) on the film propertie...

Description
Summary:This study deals with three kinds of metal oxide thin films, namely zirconium oxide, titanium oxide and aluminium oxide, prepared by filtered cathodic vacuum arc (FCVA). The influences of various process parameters (e.g. working pressure, substrate temperature & bias, etc.) on the film properties are investigated, with much attention paid to the film optical properties.
