MICROSTRUCTURAL EVOLUTION AND PHYSICAL BEHAVIOR OF PALLADIUM AND OSMIUM-RUTHENIUM NOBLE METAL FILMS

Nanostructured noble metals exhibit novel physical, mechanical and chemical behavior, and hold promise for applications such as gas sensing and electron emission. A strong emphasis was placed on the processing and characterization of these materials, in the form of nanoporous or nanocrystalline thin...
