Silver Liquid-Like Film Prepared by Self-Assembly for Magnetic Fluid Deformable Mirrors

Abstract:

In this paper, a variety of methods to prepare nanometer thin films, such as LB film method, self-assembly method, vapor deposition method and oil-water two-phase interface deposition method, are first introduced and compared. Then the self-assembly method is used to prepare the silver liquid-like film for the magnetic fluid deformable mirror. The basic principle of configuration of the silver thin films is discussed and a large area of ordered and close-packed multilayer structures of encapsulated silver nanoparticles is fabricated. The results showed that the film has good reflectivity and stability.
