In the present paper, the surface properties of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films were
modified by exposure to argon (Ar) ion beam with a fluence of 0.25× 10 18 ion. cm− 2 to 1× …

This research studied the comprehensive dielectric properties of copper (Cu)/polyethylene
terephthalate (PET) and copper/polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite films under the …

The polymer/multiwalled carbon nanotube [poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA)/carboxyethyl acrylate
(CEA)]‐multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and its amino functionalized (PVA/CEA) …

Nowadays, plasma treatments are one of the powerful techniques usually accomplished to
change the surface characteristics of polymeric films. This study presents the influence of …

In this work, a cold-cathode ion source was modified to produce a broad beam that could be
successfully used in a variety of applications. The ion source features gave reliable, long …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films with thickness 40 μ m are irradiated with 3 keV argon
ion beams with different fluence ranging from 0. 5× 1 0 1 8 ions. cm− 2 to 2× 1 0 1 8 ions …

A cold cathode plasma source is constructed for modifying PTFE surface characteristics. The
source was easily built, had a consistent plasma discharge medium and acceleration …

In this work, Makrofol DE 1–1 films were treated with O 2 plasma for different treatment times
ranging from 60 to 120 min at applied power 3.5 W and working pressure 0.4 Torr. The …

In this work, a homemade ion beam deposition technique is used to fabricate
nanocomposites films consisting of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) embedded in a …
