Study of Various Thin Films Obtained by Several Deposition Methods

Abstract:

Properties of metallic materials can be improved with special materials depositions. Materials deposited on base materials are qualitatively better than the base materials, with a better hydroabrasive wear and corrosion resistance, also with a chemical attack or mechanical stress improved resistance.The thin layer deposition represents depositions (coatings) with hardening, lubricating, or decorative function, having a thickness of less than 10 micrometers.Such special materials are used in cutting-edge technology, such as nuclear turbines and turbine airplanes, space crafts or submarines, which must withstand high temperature, erosion and different chemical attacks.Along with traditional technologies for obtaining coatings, we assist in the development, improvement and expansion of deposition modern techniques, which ensures high purity and adhesion through a wide variety of processes. These thin layer coated materials should not be very expensive from the economic point of view. That is why, scientists are looking to find out the easiest deposition methods and also with great technical efficiency.In this paper we presented several methods of thin film deposition. We also highlighted some of the advantages and disadvantages of some deposition methods.
