Long term aging, extending from months to several years, is studied on several families of
chalcogenide glasses including the Ge–Se, As–Se, and Ge–As–Se systems. Special …

Physical aging effects caused by prolonged natural storage (∼ 22 years) in binary As x Se
100− x glasses are probed by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry. It is …

Thickness of 200 nm of NiTPP film is prepared by thermal evaporation technique under
vacuum 10− 6 torr as a candidate of nano metallo-tetraphenylporphine to study long aging …

Features intrinsic to disorder and network aspects are ubiquitous in structural glasses.
Among this important class of materials, chalcogenide glasses are special—they are built of …

Transparent thin films of un-doped and doped ZrO2 have been prepared by sol–gel dip-
coating method at different ageing times and dopant concentrations followed by annealing …

The high purity and good transparent conductive nano and micro hafnium oxide (HfO 2)
films were deposited successfully using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. The …

Hafnium dioxide (HfO 2) thin films are generally used as high refractive index layers in
optical coating devices. Aging effects on optical and mechanical properties of the films are …
