Phase-transformation in iron oxide and formation of Cu/γ-Fe2O3 nanocomposite using radio-frequency sputtering with metal chips on an α-Fe2O3 target

A simple technique that uses radio-frequency sputtering with a functional element on a hematite (α-Fe2O3) target is presented for the production of maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) thin films. These films are prepared on water-cooled glass substrates in an Ar atmosphere. Investigations are done with Ti, Si, Al,...
