Thin Films and Heterostructures for Oxide Electronics
Author: Satishchandra B. Ogale
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387260897
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
Oxides form a broad subject area of research and technology development which encompasses different disciplines such as materials science, solid state chemistry, physics etc. The aim of this book is to demonstrate the interplay of these fields and to provide an introduction to the techniques and methodologies involving film growth, characterization and device processing. The literature in this field is thus fairly scattered in different research journals covering one or the other aspect of the specific activity. This situation calls for a book that will consolidate this information and thus enable a beginner as well as an expert to get an overall perspective of the field, its foundations, and its projected progress.

Pages : 25
Book Description
In Symposium Q on Magnetic Thin Films, Heterostructures, and Device Materials, spin-dependent tunneling junctions were presented, with a particular focus on Fe/MgO/Fe junctions. Tunneling magnetoresistance values in this system have recently attained up to 350% at room temperature, several times higher than those seen in any other materials system. High magnetoresistance values were presented experimentally, treated through ab initio models, and correlated with MgO barrier structure by in situ STM and XPs characterization. Prospects for incorporation into nonvolatile magnetic RAM devices were also reviewed. Among other highlights were possibilities for novel interactions of ferromagnetic layers with other functional material types; novel rectifying possibilities, predicted theoretically, for the integration of ferroelectric such as SrTiO3, in the tunnel barrier between metallic Co electrodes; unambiguous proof of electrical injection and detection of spin-polarized electrons from metallic ferromagnets through GaAs, through the Hanle effect; and all-oxide magnetic tunneling junctions based on NiMn2O4 barriers. Materials approaches to increasing subnanosecond switching speeds, critical for high-data-rate (>% GHz) information storage, were presented. It was shown that the damping constant for high-speed motion can be predicted from first principles only in layered structures; controlled in epitaxial Fe alloys, potentially reduced below the intrinsic value of pure Fe; correlated with the femtosecond demagnetization process; and understood microscopically through picosecond-scale time-resolved x-ray spectroscopy. Composition spread approaches for the discovery of high-frequency magnetic materials were also reviewed.

Thin Film Physics And Devices: Fundamental Mechanism, Materials And Applications For Thin Films
Author: Jianguo Zhu
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9811224005
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 706
Book Description
Thin films have an extremely broad range of applications from electronics and optics to new materials and devices. Collaborative and multidisciplinary efforts from physicists, materials scientists, engineers and others have established and advanced a field with key pillars constituting (i) the synthesis and processing of thin films, (ii) the understanding of physical properties in relation to the nanometer scale, (iii) the design and fabrication of nano-devices or devices with thin film materials as building blocks, and (iv) the design and construction of novel tools for characterization of thin films.Against the backdrop of the increasingly interdisciplinary field, this book sets off to inform the basics of thin film physics and thin film devices. Readers are systematically introduced to the synthesis, processing and application of thin films; they will also study the formation of thin films, their structure and defects, and their various properties — mechanical, electrical, semiconducting, magnetic, and superconducting. With a primary focus on inorganic thin film materials, the book also ventures on organic materials such as self-assembled monolayers and Langmuir-Blodgett films.This book will be effective as a teaching or reference material in the various disciplines, ranging from Materials Science and Engineering, Electronic Science and Engineering, Electronic Materials and Components, Semiconductor Physics and Devices, to Applied Physics and more. The original Chinese publication has been instrumental in this purpose across many Chinese universities and colleges.

Handbook of Thin Films, Five-Volume Set
Author: Hari Singh Nalwa
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0125129084
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 661
Book Description
This five-volume handbook focuses on processing techniques, characterization methods, and physical properties of thin films (thin layers of insulating, conducting, or semiconductor material). The editor has composed five separate, thematic volumes on thin films of metals, semimetals, glasses, ceramics, alloys, organics, diamonds, graphites, porous materials, noncrystalline solids, supramolecules, polymers, copolymers, biopolymers, composites, blends, activated carbons, intermetallics, chalcogenides, dyes, pigments, nanostructured materials, biomaterials, inorganic/polymer composites, organoceramics, metallocenes, disordered systems, liquid crystals, quasicrystals, and layered structures. Thin films is a field of the utmost importance in today's materials science, electrical engineering and applied solid state physics; with both research and industrial applications in microelectronics, computer manufacturing, and physical devices. Advanced, high-performance computers, high-definition TV, digital camcorders, sensitive broadband imaging systems, flat-panel displays, robotic systems, and medical electronics and diagnostics are but a few examples of miniaturized device technologies that depend the utilization of thin film materials. The Handbook of Thin Films Materials is a comprehensive reference focusing on processing techniques, characterization methods, and physical properties of these thin film materials.

ISBN: 9401117276
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 625
Book Description
The synthesis of multicomponent/multilayered superconducting, conducting, semiconducting and insulating thin films has become the subject of an intensive, worldwide, interdisciplinary research effort. The development of deposition-characterization techniques and the science and technology related to the synthesis of these films are critical for the successful evolution of this interdisciplinary field of research and the implementation of the new materials in a whole new generation of advanced microdevices. This book contains the lectures and contributed papers on various scientific and technological aspects of multicomponent and multilayered thin films presented at a NATO/ASI. Compared to other recent books on thin films, the distinctive character of this book is the interdisciplinary treatment of the various fields of research related to the different thin film materials mentioned above. The wide range of topics discussed in this book include vacuum-deposition techniques, synthesis-processing, characterization, and devices of multicomponent/multilayered oxide high temperature superconducting, ferroelectric, electro-optic, optical, metallic, silicide, and compound semiconductor thin films. The book presents an unusual intedisciplinary exchange of ideas between researchers with cross-disciplinary backgrounds and it will be useful to established investigators as well as postdoctoral and graduate students.
