Pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) is one of the most promising techniques for the formation of
complex-oxide heterostructures, superlattices, and well controlled interfaces. The first part of …

Laser Processing and Chemistry gives an overview of the fundamentals and applications of
laser-matter interactions, in particular with regard to laser material processing. Special …

Carbon nitride films (CN x films) were deposited on Si (100) substrates by the electrolysis of
methanol–urea solution at high voltage, atmospheric pressure, and low temperature. The …

Dispersion of femtosecond laser pulses propagating in Ar, He, Kr, N_2, Ne, Xe, and their
mixtures is measured by spectrally and spatially resolved interferometry. By varying the gas …

Publisher Summary This chapter begins with a broad look at a few areas of manufacturing
needs and then focuses on categories of surface engineering technology that have broad …

Carbon nitride films have been deposited by dielectric barrier discharge with a CH4/N2 gas
mixture at different conditions. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photo …

The unique properties of ultrafast lasers have made them powerful new tools in many fields
of laser materials processing and research. Due to their extremely short pulse duration and …

The chemical composition and bond structure of polymer like amorphous hydrogenated
carbon nitride (aH-CNx) thin films was studied by solid-state 13C and 1H MAS NMR …

Comparative studies of the pulsed laser ablation of graphite in 20 mTorr of N 2 using both 15
ns and 450 fs pulses at a wavelength of 248 nm are reported. Emissions from the resulting …

We report the tribological, mechanical, structural and compositional characteristics of CNx
films deposited by excimer laser (XeCl, λ= 308 nm, τFWHM= 30 ns) ablation of a graphite …
