Amorphous, polycrystalline, or epitaxial films can be made with thicknesses from 10 nanometers to hundreds of nanometers or thicker. |
|
In prior strained silicon technologies, the silicon film is stressed through its epitaxial growth onto a relaxed silicon-germanium layer. |
|
It is plausible that the solid glass support, which is not flat on the molecular scale, will cause epitaxial coupling that affects the overlaying lipid molecules. |
|
The key to producing high-quality LED die is the growth of the epitaxial layers and an active p-n junction on an optimum substrate. |
|
Copper is known to form isomorphic, epitaxial overlayers on gold single crystal surfaces if deposited from the gas phase. |
|
Alternatively, epitaxial crystallization may be helpful if the material is composed of crystalline phases. |
|
The epitaxial growth process for multi-junction cells requires planar geometries, thus making it challenging to apply any sort of traditional texturing or nanotexturing. |
|
High resolution X-Ray diffraction has been used for many years for the non-destructive determination of thickness, composition, strain and relaxation of epitaxial films. |
