Characterization of rare-earth nickel boride carbide and skutterudite thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition /

Thin films of rare-earth nickel boride carbide and skutterudite are grown by the technique of pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Films are deposited onto substrates held at different temperatures in the range 600⁰C to 850⁰C. Ablations are also performed with the laser operating at a reduced power settin...
