First, an introductory review of deposition-dependent microstructural peculiarities of real
optical thin films is presented. Then, some physical and chemical properties of particular …

The present paper describes recent progress in characterization of the glass surface
structure and minimization of the disturbance of the composition and structure during …

The refined synthesis and optimized crystal growth of high quality Pb2P2Se6 single crystals
are reported. Improved experimental procedures were implemented to reduce the oxygen …

Besides the theoretical design of optical interference coatings, the knowledge of their
nonoptical properties like chemical composition, structural features, mechanical …

The crystal structures of both Pb2PbO4 (Pb3O4) and Pb2SnO4 at room temperature can be
described using mullite-type setting in the space groups P 42/mbc and Pbam, respectively …

Experimental equipment was developed to investigate concentration gradients in solid
surface layers; the radiative de‐excitation of elements and molecules which are ejected from …

A thermo-mechanical wafer-to-wafer bonding process is studied through experiments on the
glass frit material and thermo-mechanical numerical simulations to evaluate the effect of the …

Chemical analysis of thin surface layers and analysis of the in-depth profiles of elements
with an in-depth resolution of a few nm can be applied to detect production defects of …

The absorption spectrum of PbSiO 3, obtained by transmission through thin films, can be
interpreted in terms of the optical basicity model to yield a basicity moderating parameter for …

A combination of in-depth cation analysis (profiling by ion-beam-induced radiation) with
UV/optical basicity measurements has been used to study the penetration of PbO films (20 …
