Lithium manganese oxide thin films were deposited on sodalime glass substrates by metal organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) technique. The films were prepared by pyrolysis of lithium manganese acetylacetonate precursor at a temperature of 420°C with a flow rate of 2.5 dm 3 /min for two-hour deposition period. Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), UV-Vis spectrophotometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and van der Pauw four point probe method were used for characterizations of the film samples. RBS studies of the films revealed fair thickness of 1112.311 (10 15 atoms/cm 2 ) and effective stoichiometric relationship of Li 0.47 Mn 0.27 O 0.26 . The films exhibited relatively high transmission (50 % T) in the visible and NIR range, with the bandgap energy of 2.55 eV. Broad and diffused X-ray diffraction patterns obtained showed that the film was amorphous in nature, while microstructural studies indicated dense and uniformly distributed layer across the substrate. Resistivity value of 4.9 Ω·cm was obtained for the thin film. Compared with Mn 0.2 O 0.8 thin film, a significant lattice absorption edge shift was observed in the Li 0.47 Mn 0.27 O 0.26 film.

“…Many methods have been employed to prepare CdO thin films like sputtering [16,17], thermal evaporation [18], laser ablation [19], spray pyrolysis [20][21][22], sol-gel [23], MOCVD [24]. Among these techniques, spray pyrolysis competes with the others due to its low cost and suitable properties and this technique is a process well suited to large-scale production [20,24,25].…”

N-doped ZnO thin films were deposited on 304L stainless steel through the pyrolysis of zinc acetate and ammonium acetate in different ratios at a temperature of 420 °C using metal organic chemical vapor deposition. Compositional and structural analyzes of the films were performed by using Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The frictional behavior of the thin films and 304L stainless steel substrate was evaluated using a ball-on-flat configuration with reciprocating sliding under marginally lubricated and fully flooded conditions. Al alloy (2017) was used as ball counterface, while basestock synthetic polyalfaolefin oil (PAO10) without additives was used as lubricant. The flat and ball counterface surfaces were examined to assess the wear dimension and failure mechanism. Under marginally lubricated condition, N-doped ZnO thin films provided significant reduction in friction, whereas the films have minimal or no effect in friction under fully flooded condition. N-doped ZnO thin films showed a significant effect in protecting the ball counterface as wear volume was reduced compared with that of the substrate under the marginally lubricated condition. Under the fully flooded condition, with the exception of one of the films, the wear volume of the N-doped ZnO thin films ball reduced compared with that of the substrate. In all the ball counterfaces for N-doped ZnO thin films under both conditions, wear occurred through abrasive mechanism of various degrees or mild polishing. Thus, superfluous lubrication of N-doped ZnO thin films is not necessary to reduce friction and wear.
