Low emissivity high-temperature tantalum thin film coatings for silicon devices

The authors study the use of thin ( ∼ 230 nm) tantalum (Ta) layers on silicon (Si) as a low emissivity (high reflectivity) coating for high-temperature Si devices. Such coatings are critical to reduce parasitic radiation loss, which is one of the dominant loss mechanisms at high temperatures (above...
