Summary: In this study, Zr-O-N films containing Ti were prepared by adding Ti ribbons on the racetrack of a Zr target during reactive magnetron sputtering. The addition of Ti ribbons prevented the target from being poisoned, especially at lower target currents, leading to a more controlled sputtering process. The color and electrical properties of the films were found to be closely related to the oxygen-to-metal ratio, while the N concentration did not have a significant impact.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of deposition pressure and growth power on the properties of Ga2O3 thin films deposited on sapphire and n-Si substrates. SEM images revealed a transition from 2D growth mode to 3D columnar growth mode with increasing deposition pressure. Annealing resulted in larger grain formation and similar transmittance values for thin films grown at different pressures. Additionally, a red shift in absorption edges and a decrease in band gap values were observed with increasing growth pressure.

Summary: Titanium oxynitride (TiOxNy) coatings have been found to enhance the bio- and hemocompatibility of stainless steel and Co-Cr vascular stents by directly releasing NO. The deposition of TiOxNy coatings with an N2:O2 ratio of 3:1 on NiTi devices was determined to be the most effective for NO production and cellular compatibility.

Summary: This study reports experimental results of the quantitative determination of oxygen and band gap measurement in TiNx electrodes in planar TiNx top/La:HfO2/TiNx bottom MIM stacks obtained by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition on SiO2. The study shows that the oxygen concentration is higher in the TiNxOy bottom electrode compared to the TiNxOy top electrode, and the incorporation of oxygen into TiNx is mainly due to diffusion from SiO2 and HfO2. Furthermore, TiO2 is observed at the interface between the Hf oxide layer and the Ti nitride electrodes as well as at the SiO2 interface.

Summary: The present study demonstrates the tuning of structural, topography, and luminescence properties of 30 keV Li-ion implanted (K, Na)NbO3 thin films synthesized using RF sputtering. The results show that the crystallinity and morphology of the films are affected by Li-ion implantation, with a decrease in crystallinity and a change in the morphology. The transmittance of the films is minimally improved, while the optical band gap and the relative PL intensity in the ultraviolet region are increased with the ion fluence. The carrier lifetime is also increased after ion implantation.

Summary: The ZnO-InN compound films were fabricated through both RF and DC sputtering, using indium and zinc metal target and N2O and N2 gases as the sputtering gas. The optical band gap was continuously tuned by precisely adjusting the chemical composition of the compound film. The carrier density of the ZnO-InN compound can be adjusted by varying the chemical composition, and when exceeding a certain threshold, the film exhibits degenerated semiconductor characteristics. Grain boundary scattering dominates carrier transport in films with carrier density below the threshold.

Summary: Polycrystalline samples of Ti-doped gamma-AlON were prepared through high temperature annealing. The solubility limit of Ti in AlON was estimated to be around 0.2-0.5 at% and excess Ti formed TiN phase. Titanium ions were found in three different coordination environments. The optical bandgap showed a decreasing trend at higher Ti content. Titanium doping resulted in a decrease in overall optical and luminescence properties of gamma-AlON.

Summary: The corrosion behavior of Fe-60 and Fe-83 ribbons in 0.6 M NaCl was studied. Fe-60 exhibited a local corrosion mode and formed a stable passivation film with higher corrosion resistance, while Fe-83 showed a combination of local and global corrosion modes and had lower corrosion resistance. Controlling the precipitation of nanocrystalline phases and increasing the POx content in the passivation film significantly improved the corrosion resistance of Fe-based glassy alloys.
