Abstract:It is shown that laser-assisted growth of Al films using the CBE method results in remarkable surface composition transformations. The values of the laser reflectivity are slightly correlated with the composition or with the metal thickness. The energy characteristics of the reactions guide the reflectivity changes, together with thickness changes. It was shown that the composition within the laser spot is different from that outside the laser spot due to the destruction of compounds under laser exposure.
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.
