In situ studies revealing the effects of Au surfactant on the formation of ultra-thin Ag layers using high-power impulse magnetron sputter deposition
{{output}}
Introducing metallic nanoparticles, such as Au, on a substrate as a surfactant or wetting inducer has been demonstrated as a simple but effective way to facilitate the formation of ultra-thin silver layers (UTSLs) during the subsequent Ag deposition. However, ... ...
