Micro-Nano Surface Functionalization of Materials and Thin Films for Optical Applications
Micro-Nano Surface Functionalization of Materials and Thin Films for Optical Applications by Ramón Escobar-Galindo
English | PDF | 2021 | 89 Pages | ISBN : N/A | 25.2 MB
This book contains the articles collected for the Special Issue entitled Micro-Nano Surface Functionalization of Materials and Thin Films for Optical Applications in the journal Coatings (ISSN 2079-6412). These selected articles provide a meaningful overview of recent advances and concepts beyond the state-of-the-art regarding surface functionalization of materials and deposition of thin films to be used in optical applications. The aim was to cover all relevant aspects of the topic (simulation, design, fabrication, characterization and applications) with a special emphasis on non-conventional methods for surface modification of materials, combinations of mature fabrication routes with emerging technologies (i.e., additive manufacturing) and large-area fabrication concepts to pave the way to industrial utilization of the developed materials. This overview comprises the recent work of reputed scientists from Germany, Austria, Spain and India.

New developments on the scale-up deposition of transparent conductive oxides (TCO) by magnetron sputtering are addressed in the works presented by R. Mientus et al. and J. Txintxurreta et al. [2]. In [1], the effect of the reactive gases on the growth of amorphous SnO2:Ta films was studied. These films can be used as low-temperature transparent and conductive layers to protect semiconducting photoelectrodes for water splitting and also, where appropriate, in combination with more conductive TCO films (ITO or ZnO). The low-temperature deposition of ITO films is also discussed in. There, it was shown that an in-depth understanding of the deposition process is essential to growing reproducible and high (electrical and optical) quality ITO films. In particular, specific oxygen flow conditions are needed for the manufacturing of efficient transparent ITO heaters to be used in the automotive industry.
