Protective applications of vacuum-deposited perfluoropolymer films
Journal Title: Semiconductor Physics, Quantum Electronics and Optoelectronics - Year 2016, Vol 19, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper summarizes in brief applications of perfluoropolymer thin films deposited from the gas phase by several different methods, for protection of various materials and devices both at the research stage and already in industry. Perfluoropolymer films protect from corrosion coated metals, attain superhydrophobic properties to various surfaces, enhance the lifetime of medical implants, passivating the surface of semiconductors, protect functional layers in organic light emitting diodes, field effect transistors etc. Organic molecules in the PTFE matrix revealed extreme stability and presents the new material for optical applications.

London forces in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite
Surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite with terrace steps was studied using scanning tunneling microscopy with high spatial resolution. Spots with positive and negative charges were found in the vicinity of the st...
The influence of the exciton non-radiative recombination in silicon on the photoconversion efficiency. 1. The case of a long Shockley–Read–Hall lifetime
By comparison of the experimental dependence of bulk lifetime in silicon on the doping and excitation levels with theoretical calculations, it has been shown that a new recombination channel becomes operative when Shockl...
