Observation of negative values of the changes of the ellipsometric phase difference during gas adsorption on rough metal films
P. Wissmann,E. Wittmann +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical simulation of coverage dependence is presented taking into account voids and surface roughness on the basis of the well-known EMA model, in good agreement with the evidence of electron micrographs.

Argon gas pressure dependence of the columnar grain structure in iron films deposited obliquely by sputtering
TL;DR: In this paper, columnar grain structure of iron films obliquely deposited by sputtering at various argon gas pressures (5−20 Pa) was investigated by measuring the optical constants, the magnetic anisotropy and the {110} pole distribution and compared with that of iron film evaporated in argon atmosphere.
