摘要: Some aspects of the dynamics thin‐film synthesis aluminum nitride and oxide produced by ion‐assisted deposition have been deduced from in situ measurements ellipsometry, photometry, ion scattering spectroscopy. Measurements obtained during etching films nitrogen oxygen beams established thickness synthesized layer rate compound formation. these compared with a theoretical model which predicts time evolution surface as well steady‐state thickness. The breakdown voltage variation capacitance applied prepared are also presented. Furthermore, optical properties AlN Al2O3 visible region given.
