High throughput thin film materials science

摘要: Abstract Combinatorial techniques, in which a library of chemical formulations is scanned for specific activity, have been used extensively to expedite the discovery phase pharmaceutical compounds. Such techniques more recently come prominence relation novel functional inorganic materials using methods thin film deposition. Here aim prepare sample containing spread compositions so that localised measurements can explore range properties across diagram. The application high throughput optimisation has its roots earlier studies exploited position-dependent process variables assist protocols. Indeed, we argue here one biggest challenges facing combinatorial science ensure property variations be ascribed solely composition changes, by achieving sufficient control over inevitable variation other para...
