The oblique angle configuration has emerged as an invaluable tool for the deposition of
nanostructured thin films. This review develops an up to date description of its principles …

Perovskite manganites exhibit a broad range of structural, electronic, and magnetic
properties, which are widely investigated since the discovery of the colossal …

Superconductivity in the simple elements is of both technological relevance and
fundamental scientific interest in the investigation of superconductivity phenomena. Recent …

Growth dynamics of thin-films involves both shadowing and re-emission effects. Shadowing
can originate from obliquely incident atoms being preferentially deposited on hills of the …

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on experimental aspects of the Glancing angle
deposition (GLAD) technique–its methods and possibilities. It introduces the basic theory …

Sputter-deposited W films with nominal thicknesses between 5 and 180 nm were prepared
by varying the base pressure prior to film deposition and by including or not including …

An important resource for students, engineers and researchers working in the area of thin
film deposition using physical vapor deposition (eg sputtering) for semiconductor, liquid …

Vertically aligned platinum–nickel (Pt–Ni) alloy nanorod arrays were grown on glassy
carbon electrodes using a magnetron sputtering glancing angle deposition (GLAD) …

Nanostructured tungsten (W) and tungsten trioxide (WO3) films were prepared by glancing
angle deposition using pulsed direct current magnetron sputtering at room temperature with …

We present the use of an oblique angle physical vapor deposition (OAPVD) technique with
substrate rotation to obtain conformal thin films with enhanced step coverage on patterned …
