Epitaxial growth of InSb films by r.f. magnetron sputtering
TL;DR: In this article, the difference in the operational properties between r.f. conventional diode (CD) and planar magnetron (PM) sputterings has been studied, and it was shown that the PM-deposited InSb film has a relatively gentle, terraced surface while the CD-deposed film had a roughened surface with the emergence of deep hollows.

Plasma treatment of porous SiNx:H films for the fabrication of porous-dense multilayer optical filters with tailored interfaces
TL;DR: In this article, the surface treatments were performed on porous layers using argon and nitrogen rf plasmas in order to densify and flatten their surface, and hence to obtain an abrupt transition between porous and dense films.

Temporal quantum control with graphene
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a novel strategy for controlling the temporal evolution of a quantum system at the nanoscale, which relies on the use of graphene plasmons, which can be electrically tuned in frequency by external gates.

A study of the microstructure of a-Si:H using spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used spectroscopic ellipsometry as a probe of the near-surface and bulk microstructure of a-Si:H and n-type microcrystalline (μc-Si-H:F) films.

Ellipsometry and polarized light
TL;DR: In this article, the polarization of light waves and propagation of polarized light through polarizing optical systems are discussed. But the authors focus on the application of ellipsometry in the field of measurement in ellipsometer systems.

A Variational Approach to the Theory of the Effective Magnetic Permeability of Multiphase Materials
Z. Hashin,S. Shtrikman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors established and applied variational theorems for the derivation of bounds for the effective magnetic permeability of macroscopically homogeneous and isotropic multiphase materials.

Investigation of effective-medium models of microscopic surface roughness by spectroscopic ellipsometry
TL;DR: In this article, Bruggeman and Maxwell Garnett showed that the dielectric properties of microscopically rough layers of thicknesses 100-500 \AA{}A are accurately modeled in the effective medium approximation.
