Synthesis and Characterization of CN Thin Films Produced by DC-Pulsed Sputtering in an \(CH_3CH_2OH-N_2\) Atmosphere
This paper reports on the successful deposition of amorphous carbon nitride thin films (a-CNx). Samples were deposited using a DC-pulsed sputtering technique in CH3CH2OH-N2 atmosphere at constant pressure (1 Torr). Raman spectra were collected to investigate the bonding structure of the deposed thin films, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were…
Read More Crystallinity and Hardness Enhancement of Polypropylene using Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Discharge Treatment
Atmospheric pressure plasma was used to treat polypropylene (PP) surfaces. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was used to determine the chemical species formed in the plasma as well as the electron temperature and density of the plasma. The flux of species (O and OH) produced during the plasma treatment interact with the polymer surface creating polar…
