Amorphous metal Pt – Zr coatings of micron thick as well as crystalline ones were obtained on the surface of hollow thin-wall glass microspheres using direct current magnetron sputtering at the deposition rate of 0.1 nm/s. Being in the range of 1–2 nm, the roughness of the obtained amorphous coatings is essentially lower than that of crystalline coatings of the same composition.
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.
