The influence of low-energy ion damage on the Si/SiO interface has been studied with atomic hydrogen and Ar implantation into device-quality thermal SiO grown on ptype *** principal effects of H implantation are creation of fixed positive charges and interface traps,neutralization of acceptor dopants in Si by H and change in the SiO dielectric *** study also includes recovery of damage by thermal anneal as well as Ar ion implantation damage,and is of interest in assessing the influence of ionassisted processing on the Si/SiO interface.

Highly transparent and conducting In2O3 and ZnOfilms have been successfully deposited at temperatures as low as <70?°C by activated reactive evaporation. Ways to control the anode‐to‐film potential, which can be used as a rough measure of ion bombardment energy, are discussed. It was found that a minimum anode‐to‐film voltage of ~20 V is necessary for high mobility (~18 cm2?V?1?s?1) for In2O3. However, for the case of ZnO, it was found that there is no such a minimum ion bombardment energy. X‐ray diffraction data on low‐temperature deposited In2O3 and ZnOfilms are also presented, showing that ZnOfilms are in general easier to crystallize than In2O3films. A postulate was also made that microvoids can be filled up more easily in the case of zinc oxide deposition because the low sticking coefficient of zinc allow its vapor to go around corners more easily and thus the process is not pure physical vapor deposition but has a substantial component that behaves like a surface rate‐limited chemical vapor deposition process. Hence the explanation is simply that very little energy is necessary to get ZnOfilms with an electron mobility of ~40 cm2?V?1?s?1 by activated reactive evaporation. This is, however, not the case for sputtering and thus this may have an important implication that there can be less ion damage on some sensitive substrates for low‐temperature deposition of ZnO by activated reactive evaporation.

Small-angle x-ray scattering was used to measure the distribution of Cs+ counterions around the surface of cylindrical micelles. The scattering intensity distribution was compared with that calculated by use of the analytical solutions of a nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) equation in a cell model. Quantitative agreement was obtained for the cases without added salt. The addition of other monovalent salts did not modify the counterion distribution significantly in accordance with the prediction of the numerical solution of the PB equation.

Both the timely manufacture of defense systems and their subsequent on-line operability depend upon the availability of component parts. The growing problem of microelectronic component nonavailability is casting a shadow over logistics support to these systems. This paper will discuss the causes of the problem and provide some examples of cases confronted by the DoD logistics community. It will also identify some actions which have been taken in the past to manage the issue as well as initiatives now underway. Finally it will look at what lies ahead.

Highly transparent and conducting undoped zinc oxide films have been obtained with a best resistivity of ~1.1 × 10-3 Ω cm, a carrier density of ~1.5 × 1020 cm?3 and a mobility of ~38 cm2V?1s?1. These were produced by activated reactive evaporation at a deposition rate of 2 to 8?/s with a substrate temperature ≤200° C. The films deposited by this process were found to have resistivities that were thickness independent and also were relatively insensitive to deposition parameters. In terms of conductivity, it was found that films deposited at higher temperatures (T > 300°+ C) were always inferior to the films deposited below 200° C. High temperature vacuum annealing (350° C) significantly degraded the resistivity of the undoped films deposited at low temperature; this was attributable to a drop in both the electron concentration and the mobility. Aluminum doping was found to be able to stabilize the electron concentration while the drop in mobility was found to be related to the choice of substrate.

The high-T c superconducting oxide Yba 2 Cu 3 O 7–y has been prepared by the amorphous citrate process. A citrate-nitrate solution was prepared at room temperature and dehydrated at around 80°C to yield a solid precursor material. The precursor was fired to high temperature to form the desired compound. The decomposition mechanism was studied with thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction. Intermediate products were formed during the decomposition reactions. Nearly phase-pure Yba 2 Cu 3 O 7-y powders were obtained by firing the precursor in air to 900°Cfor2 h. Sintered samples were typically over 90% dense and exhibited good superconducting properties.
