Abstract:Detailed X-Ray line profile studies have been performed on thin films of lead (thickness range $30±900 nm), vapour-deposited onto glass substrates, under high vacuum ($10 ± ±6 Torr). The films reveal unusually high orientation along [111] over the whole thickness range. Both Warren-Averbach and Williamson-Hall analysis have been adopted. W-H plot shows a near-isotropy in strain broadening observed at higher film thickness with predominant microstrain contribution. W-A analysis shows that the crystallite sizes … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
