Is the reduction of the pore size and that of the end-product dimensions possible?

Good afternoon, I would like to know, the limitations of the method in developing: Thin films Nano-sized pores. Is it applicable to other types of ceramics or metals? Kind regards,

What are the factors affecting the adhesion strength between metal/oxide and metal/nitride layers?

Microstructure, roughness, the enthalpy of formation of an oxide compared to the adjacent layer are some of the factors affecting the adhesion strength. Is there a specific variable for...

Is anybody familiar with water removal from nanoporous thin films in the glovebox (N2) by heating? The H2O and O2 content is <1 ppm? The min T needed?

I assume it should be less than in ambient conditions. Since glovebox atmosphere contains trace amounts of O2 and H2O, thermodynamically the temperature needed to evaporate H2O should be less. Do...

How the Ground Plane implantation is performed without damaging (and w/o varying the undoped nature) the top Si (8-10 nm) in FDSOI technology ?

It is a general practice to introduce Ground Plane in FDSOI devices under the BoX. The Ground Planes are introduced by Ion Implantation through Top Si layer and Buried Oxide. I wanted to know that...

How can we determine the band gap of a composite material that is made up of a composition of direct and indirect band gap semiconductor materials?

I have a direct band gap material and an indirect band gap material. If I made a composite of both through physical mixing. Then how can I determine the band gap of such a material as the Tauc...

How do you obtain an even spread of polymer film on Silicon wafer?

Hi Everyone, I made some polymer(Polylactide) films on Silicon wafer. The polymer was dissolved in DCM and THF. I observed that the colour of the film at the centre of the Wafer is different...
