Mansoor Ani Najeeb Nellikkal

Hi Aravind,

You can refer the following books/ journals for thin-film deposition techniques and their various parameters.

Handbook of Thin Film Deposition Processes and Techniques (Second Edition)

Physical and Chemical Methods for Thin-Film Deposition and Epitaxial Growth by John R. Arthur

Structural, morphological and optical properties of PEDOT:PSS/QDs nano-composite films prepared by spin-casting Mansoor Ani Najeeb et al.

Regards,

Jules Lloyd Hammond

Further to Mansoor's suggestion, try:

Milton Ohring - "The Materials Science of Thin Films".

Kind regards,

Jules

John Joseph Reche

Thin Film Processes I and II by Vossen and Kern
