  • Refractory Amorphous Metal Thin Films

    Creator:
    Olsen, Kristopher R.
    Abstract:
    Amorphous metal thin films lack the grain boundaries and dislocations present in crystalline metal films. As a result, amorphous metal films can be more mechanically robust, atomically smooth, and more resistant to chemical attack than crystalline metals. However, amorphous metals are meta-stable and subject to crystallization upon heating, thus limiting...
