The permeated layer was then analysed by TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) , EPMA (Electronic Probe Microanalysis) and IMA (Ion Microprobe Appratus). The results show that CuREAl and dispersed η phase (Cu6Sn5) distribute in the layer, RE content decreases in the depth direction, and alloying elements (Al, Sn) are enriched in the outer layer and dilute in the second layer.展开更多

For film with such thickness, the growth mode defined as the arrangement of clusters on the surface during the growth is of significance. In this work, Al2O3 thin film was deposited on various interfacial species of pre-treated polyethylene terephthalate (PET, 12 μm) by plasma assisted atomic layer deposition (PA-ALD), where trimethyl aluminium was used as the Al precursor and O2 as the oxygen source. The interracial species, -NH3, -OH, and -COOH as well as SiCHO (derived from monomer of HMDSO plasma), were grafted previously by plasma and chemical treatments. The growth mode of PA-ALD Al2O3 was then investigated in detail by combining results from in-situ diagnosis of spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) and ex-situ characterization of as-deposited layers from the morphologies scanned by atomic force microscopy (AFM). In addition, the oxygen transmission rates (OTR) of the original and treated plastic films were measured. The possible reasons for the dependence of the OTR values on the surface species were explored.展开更多
