Effect of substrate temperature on sputter-deposited boron carbide films

L. B. Bayu Aji et al.

Summary: The influence of substrate temperature on the properties of B4C films deposited by DC magnetron sputtering was systematically studied. The results showed that the properties of the films are weakly dependent on the substrate temperature within a certain temperature range. However, within this range, an increase in substrate temperature leads to larger residual compressive stress and a reduction in nanoscale inhomogeneities.

Effect of substrate roughness and material selection on the microstructure of sputtering deposited boron carbide thin films

Chung-Chuan Lai et al.

Summary: Amorphous boron carbide (B4C) thin films are commonly used as neutron converting layers in 10B-based neutron detectors. The microstructure of these films is closely related to important properties such as density and adhesion, which affect detection efficiency and long-term stability. A study was conducted to examine the influence of substrate roughness and material on B4C films. It was found that high skewness substrates resulted in a decrease in mass density, but films deposited on different roughness Al, Ti, and Cu substrates showed similar microstructures and mass density, with good adhesion.

Effects of Ti interlayer on adhesion property of DLC films: A first principle study

Keliang Wang et al.

Summary: This study explores the properties of diamond like carbon (DLC) films and the improvement of adhesion strength by introducing an interlayer. The research focuses on the bonding nature of Fe/C, Fe/Ti, and Ti/C interfaces, showing that Fe/Ti and Ti/C interfaces have greater bonding strength than the Fe/C interface.

Boron carbide thin films deposited by RF-PECVD and PLD technique: A comparative study based on structure, optical properties, and residual stress

A. Bute et al.

Summary: In this study, boron carbide thin films were deposited using RF-PECVD and PLD techniques. The PECVD technique yielded crystalline films, while the PLD technique produced amorphous films. PECVD films showed superior stoichiometric purity, adhesion, hardness, and lubricity compared to PLD films.
