THE ION-ASSISTED DEPOSITION OF OPTICAL THIN FILMS.

The columnar microstructure of most thermally evaporated thin films detrimentally affects many of their properties through a reduction in packing density. In this work, we have investigated ion-assisted deposition as a means of disrupting this columnar growth for a number of coating materials. A Kau...
