The formation of SiC films by magnetron sputtering

Physical Sciences and Technology, 2019
This paper is devoted to the synthesis of solid silicon carbide (SiCx) films on the surface of single-crystal silicon (c-Si) with a thin interlayer of amorphous silicon (a-Si) by magnetron sputtering as well as to establish new regularities in the ...

High-temperature thin-film thermocouple for aero-engines.

PLoS ONE
A thin-film thermocouple sensor directly deposited on nickel-based superalloys was investigated for aero-engine applications. To address the high-temperature and harsh environment challenges, the sensor's film structure was meticulously designed.

In-situ evolution and aging of ultrathin sputter deposited silver films

Applied Surface Science Advances
Silver (Ag) thin films deposited by magnetron sputtering are widely utilized in optics, antimicrobial coatings, and flexible organic electronics. However, the inherent three-dimensional (3D) island growth of Ag complicates the fabrication of ultrathin ...

Elastomeric 3D‐Printed Microenvironments Enable Nanonewton Force Measurements in Healthy and Diseased Human Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Neuroepithelial Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present elastomeric three‐dimensional (3D) microstructures fabricated via two‐photon polymerization (2PP) and post‐processed through wet etching, for quantifying nanonewton (nN)‐scale forces applied by healthy and diseased neural cells. The mechanically characterized free‐standing beam architectures enable measurement of traction forces of ...

High Quality MoS2 Layered Thin Films Obtained by Ionized Jet Deposition Investigated by X‐ray Absorption Spectroscopy at S L2,3 and Mo M2,3 Edges

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Soft x‐ray absorption spectroscopy at the S L2,3 and Mo M2,3 edges reveals synthesis‐dependent electronic and structural order in MoS2. Bulk, exfoliated, and CVD samples show well‐resolved 2D features, while as‐deposited IJD films appear amorphous but crystallize into ordered 2H‐MoS2 upon moderate annealing, confirming IJD as a viable low‐temperature ...

Cation‐π Interaction‐Based Biointerface for Low‐Cost PD‐1 Detection Toward NSCLC Immunotherapy Monitoring

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A cation‐π interaction‐based biointerface is engineered on a CNT‐FET for label‐free detection of PD‐1. PD‐1 monoclonal antibodies are orientedly immobilized via cation‐π interactions between PCz‐wrapped semiconducting single‐walled carbon nanotubes and the Fc region of the monoclonal antibody.

In Situ Two‐Dimensional Residual Stress Characterization of Thin Films

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An integrated in situ curvature metrology platform combining speckle‐based curvature optical metrology (SCOM) with multi‐beam optical sensors (MOS) enables spatially resolved two‐dimensional curvature mapping of thick sputtered coatings. The SCOM technique provides excellent agreement with MOS while providing an extended measurable curvature range ...

Photodoping in Wide‐Bandgap Perovskite Solar Cells With MXenes

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ultrafast tandem spectroscopy and DFT modeling reveal the separate dynamics and the imbalance of electrons and holes in wide bandgap perovskite solar cells with MXene incorporation. The enhanced photoconversion performances of the devices are traced to photodoping, with selective hole trapping and suppressed recombination of electrons.
