STUDIES, RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATIONS OF THE OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF THIN FILMS OF METALS SEMICONDUCTORS AND DIELECTRICS

Abstract

Four more or less unrelated subjects were under investigation during the past six months. Each has been the outgrowth of previous work, or is in some way related to it. These subjects are: (1) purity of chromium films reported on in the previous issue of this series; (2) use of a laser beam as an evaporating source, since this appears as a possible way of evaporating refractory materials; (3) smoothness of substrates - a study necessary because of previous difficulties already reported on; and, (4) evaporation by means of electron bombardment again as a possible means of evaporating refractory materials.
