We find that the FOM increases as the photon penetration depth decreases, and linearly increases with the thermal diffusion constant D. To achieve the highest FOM, the film thickness d has to be controlled to an optimum value. We also find that the FOM is directly proportional to the laser absorption coefficient no, the laser energy density per pulse E, the illuminated length of film 1, sin(2α) [αis the vicinal-cut angle], the Seebeck coefficient anisotropy ( Sab - Sc), and is inversely proportional to the mass density ρ and the specific heat c0.展开更多

The films were grown using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique, taking Si (111) wafer as substrates, with a substrate at the temperature below 450°C in the PLD. It is found that both TCR-temperature behavior and TCR value are strongly affected by deposition temperature. The maximal TCR value over -10.9%K-1 can be observed at the deposition temperature from 20°C to 350°C and reaches to -13%K-1 at deposition temperature 20°C where the film shows X-ray diffraction amorphous. The results suggest that the ZnO/Si films demonstrate great potentials when used in a low-cost, high-performance, non-cooling and highly sensitive bolometer.展开更多

This paper reports that the transverse laser induced thermoelectric voltages (LITV) axe observed for the first time in the step flow growth (1- x)PD(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 (PMN-PT, x = 0.20, 0.33, 0.50) thin fi...This paper reports that the transverse laser induced thermoelectric voltages (LITV) axe observed for the first time in the step flow growth (1- x)PD(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 (PMN-PT, x = 0.20, 0.33, 0.50) thin films deposited on vicinal-cut strontium titanate single crystal substrates. Because lead magnesium niobate-lead titanate is a solid solution of lead magnesium niobate (PMN) and lead titanate (PT), there are two types of signals. One is wide with a time response of a microsecond, and the other superimposed with the wide signal is narrow with a time response of a nanosecond. The transverse LITV signals depend on the ratio of PMN to PT drastically. Under the irradiation of 28-ns pulsed KrF excimer laser with the 248-nm wavelength, the largest induced voltage is observed in the 0.50Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.50 PbTiO3 films. Moreover, the effects of film thickness, substrates, and tilt angles of substrates are also investigated.展开更多
