In this work, we demonstrate a hybrid measurement technique using ellipsometry together with other independent methods for validation. Ellipsometry provides information about the porosity of different mesoporous films (PtRuNP/OMC = 45%; IrOx = 46%) as well as about the pore size (pore radius of ca. 5 nm for PtRuNP/OMC). In addition, the electronic structure of a material, such as intraband transitions of a mesoporous IrOx film, can be identified, which can be used to better understand the mechanisms of chemical processes. In addition, we show that ellipsometry can be used as a scalable imaging and visualization method for quality assurance in production. These require accurate and traceable measurements, with reference materials playing an important role that include porosity and other related properties. We show that our novel analytical methods are useful for improving analytical work in this entire field.

T1 - ALD-coated mesoporous iridium-titanium mixed oxides: Maximizing iridium utilization for an outstanding OER performance N2 - With the increasing production of renewable energy and concomitant depletion of fossil resources, the demand for efficient water splitting electrocatalysts continues to grow. Iridium (Ir) and iridium oxides (IrOₓ) are currently the most promising candidates for an efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic medium, which remains the bottleneck in water electrolysis. Yet, the extremely high costs for Ir hamper a widespread production of hydrogen (H₂) on an industrial scale. Herein, the authors report a concept for the synthesis of electrode coatings with template-controlled mesoporosity surface-modified with highly active Ir species. The improved utilization of noble metal species relies on the synthesis of soft-templated metal oxide supports and a subsequent shape-conformal deposition of Ir species via atomic layer deposition (ALD) at two different reaction temperatures. The study reveals that a minimum Ir content in the mesoporous titania-based support is mandatory to provide a sufficient electrical bulk conductivity. After ALD, a significantly enhanced OER activity results in dependency of the ALD cycle number and temperature. The most active developed electrocatalyst film achieves an outstanding mass-specific activity of 2622 mA mg(Ir)⁻Âč at 1.60 V(RHE) in a rotating-disc electrode (RDE) setup at 25 °C using 0.5 m H₂SO₄ as a supporting electrolyte.

The increasing utilization of multi-material structures in the automotive and aerospace industry necessitates a fundamental understanding of the processes leading to interface degradation for the development of novel strategies to increase corrosion and delamination resistance. The aim of this project is to investigate the corrosion processes at the buried interface of thin film coated aluminium alloy AA2024-T3 under corrosive and coupled corrosive-mechanical load. A spin coating procedure was developed to synthesize epoxy-like coatings and their nanofiller loaded composites with controlled thickness by layer-by-layer deposition of poly[(o-cresyl glycidyl ether)-co-formaldehyde] and poly-(ethylenimine) bi-layers. Our results indicate that the incorporation of graphene into the epoxy-based coatings leads to the improvement of mechanical and barrier properties. Furthermore, the functional groups play important roles in the interfacial bonding between polymer matrix and the nanofillers. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) results indicate very homogeneous and dense films with a thickness of ~25 nm per bi-layer and the successful integration of the nanofillers into the composite coatings. Ellipsometry measurements of film thickness verified a proportional film growth with the number of deposited layers. The degradation and delamination behavior of the coating systems was characterized by means of in situ AFM corrosion experiments. Complementary energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis was used to correlate the corrosion and delamination behavior with the different intermetallic particle chemistries and distributions. The presentation will summarize our results on the effect of coating composition and build-up on the local corrosion processes on thin film covered AA2024-T3 aluminium alloys.

The activity and stability of each catalyst is highly dependent on the properties of the coating, i.e., phase composition, crystallinity, accessible surface area, and many other factors. The key to developing improved catalysts is a better understanding of the relationships between their performance, stability, and physicochemical properties. However, these relationships can be complex and are also strongly influenced by the reaction environment. Therefore, operando analysis of the catalyst material during catalysis at realistic potentials and current densities is highly desirable. However, many analytical techniques cannot be applied in liquid environments at realistic potentials and current densities. We propose environmental ellipsometric analysis in a dedicated electrochemical flow cell as a method to evaluate gas evolution reactions operando under realistic working conditions. Figure 1 illustrates schematically the developed technique. Key factors to success are highly active model-type catalysts, a suitable sample environment, and a deep understanding of the appropriate model development, as well as concise cross validation with numerous other analytical techniques. The method was developed and validated by analyzing a calcination series (300 – 600 °C) of mesoporous templated IrOx films ex-situ and operando under oxygen evolution reaction (OER) conditions. The employed environmental electrochemical spectroscopic ellipsometric (ECSE) analysis revealed during OER the change of optical and electronic properties, i.e. the dielectric functions, resistivity and band-to-band transitions (p-d band transitions). Film thickness and porosity were validated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray reflectometry (XRR) or ellipsometric porosimetry (EP), electrical and electronic properties by means of conductivity measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) or UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy. The electronic structures of the catalysts from valence electron energy loss spectra (VEELS) derived from Δ1 and Δ2 from SE measurements reveal a direct correlation with electrochemical activities in OER. In the presentation reversible and irreversible potential-dependent changes of the catalyst properties during operation will be discussed along with the dynamics of gas formation, transport and dissolution at different potentials.

In particular, it is critical for development of reference materials, where structure parameters are precisely fabricated and should be reproduced with use of DLW technology. In this study we investigated the effect of various fabrication and preparation parameters on the structural precision of interest for reference materials. A well-studied photo-curable system, SZ2080 negative photo-resist with 1 wt.% Michler's ketone (Bis) photo-initiator, was investigated in this work. The correlation between applied laser power, laser velocity, fabrication direction on the deviations in the structure shape were observed by means of white light interferometry microscopy. Moreover, influence of slicing and hatching distances as well as prebake time were studied as function of sample shape. Deviations in the structure form between the theoretically expected and the one detected after DLW fabrication were observed in the range up to 15%. The observed shape discrepancies show the essential importance of fine-tuning the fabrication parameter for reference structure production.

A1 - Peters, S. T1 - Development of a standard series for ellipsometry N2 - Ellipsometry is a powerful tool, which allows the investigation of material properties over a broad spectral range. Over the course of several years, the ellipsometry lab at BAM has become an accredited testing lab according to ISO/IEC 17025 laying bare the need of better methods for accuracy and traceability. Despite its wide range of application in both research and development as well as industry, there have been no generally accepted standards dealing with model validation and measurement uncertainties. Based on the first German standard DIN 50989 – 1: 2018 Ellipsometry - Part 1: Principles (currently international standard ISO 23131: 2021) and under consideration of GUM [1] a series of standards for ellipsometry was developed. The entire 6-part series covers several model-based application cases. This standards series avoids having narrow and material specific application cases but instead classifies applications of ellipsometry according to the sample complexity. The concept of ellipsometric transfer quantities (Κ and Δ or alternatively the elements of transfer matrices) is implemented in the series. For each application case a model-based validation strategy was developed. Thus, the standards are applicable to all materials, instruments and measuring principles. The uniform structure concept of the series facilitates its practical applicability for users. The standards include the model-based GUM-compliant determination/estimation of the measurement uncertainties. In addition, the appendices of the documents contain numerous measurement and simulation examples as well as recommendations for measuring practice. In this contribution we present the application cases and basic structure of the standards developed in collaboration with Accurion GmbH and SENTECH Instruments GmbH in the project SNELLIUS.

However, there are still unturned stones regarding its superficial re-solidification after femtosecond laser-induced local melting. In this presentation, we report irradiation experiments with single femtosecond pulses (790 nm, 30 fs) with a spatially Gaussian distribution on two different types of silicon with orientations <111> and <100>. The surface modifications were studied in detail via different techniques, including optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, spectroscopic imaging ellipsometry, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. We quantitatively estimate the resulting radial amorphous layer depth profiles with maximum thicknesses around some tenths of nanometers for fluences in between the melting and ablation thresholds. In particular, spectroscopic imaging ellipsometry (SIE) allowed fast data acquisition using multiple wavelengths to provide experimental measurements for calculating the nanometric radial amorphous layer thickness profiles with micrometric lateral resolution based on a thin-film layer model. SIE proved to be capable of detecting and measuring nanometric structural and chemical modifications (oxidation) on the studied laser spots. The accuracy of the SIE-based calculations is verified experimentally by characterizing an in-depth material lamella via high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM-EDX). For completeness, we present a mathematical modelling for the melt layer thickness considering different optical absorption processes including one photon absorption, two photon absorption and free-carrier absorption, highlighting the relevance of the latter one in the femtosecond laser-induced melting of silicon.

Unter BerĂŒcksichtigung des neuartigen Modell-basierten Normungskonzepts wurde in den NormenentwĂŒrfen erstmals eine GUM- und DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 konforme Bestimmung bzw. AbschĂ€tzung der Messunsicherheit umgesetzt. Dies erforderte neben der textlichen Erstellung auch umfangreiche experimentelle Arbeiten bei den Firmen, Vergleichsversuche und komplementĂ€re Modell- und Datenevaluierungen, da sowohl die verwendete ellipsometrische Hardware (unterschiedliche ellipsometrische Funktionsprinzipien) als auch die ellipsometrische Software (Modell-Randbedingungen, Fitalgorithmus) firmenspezifisch zum Teil sehr unterschiedlich sind. Hierbei mussten in einem Konsensprozess Lösungen gefunden werden, die die beiden deutschen Ellipsometer-Anbieter Accurion (Imaging-Ellipsometrie) und SENTECH Instruments (Mapping Ellipsometrie) gleichermaßen akzeptieren konnten und die zudem einen Transfer auf die Internationale Ebene (ISO Norm) ermöglichen, also vom Grundsatz her auch auf weitere Ellipsometerhersteller wie (J.

Degradation under service conditions and ageing as a result of climatic influences or delamination under load were unsolved Validation issues. This could be overcome by means of an auto-diagnosis procedure based on FBG-sensors coated by electrochemical deposition (ECD) with a magnetostrictive NiFe-coating on top of an adhesive Cu/Cr adhesive layer deposited by physical vapour deposition (PVD) around the FBG strain sensor. This allows at any time under Service a validation of sensor functionality, stability, and reliability. For this purpose, a magnetic strain-proportional reference field is introduced. The optical read-out is realized by the measurement of the Bragg-wavelength shift. The ratio of resulting strain and exciting magnetic reference field should be constant given that the sensor is in proper function. In principle, the magnetostrictive coating around the FBG should also work as on-line magnetic field sensor and other applications in material science. One of these applications is the in-situ monitoring of ECD processes as the deposition of the ECD NiFe-layer on the FBG revealed. Challenges are the monitoring of temperature, deposition stages/thickness, and resulting mechanical stress under given plating conditions. Monitoring problems can be solved by applying a pre-coated FBG to the electrolytic process as the shift of the Bragg wavelength is affected by both the temperature of the electrolyte near the substrate and the stress formation in the growing layer. The experimental FBG set-up and the quantitative determination of temperature- and stress-related strain are described for a nickeliron electrolyte. The in-situ measurement of Bragg wavelength shifts of a pre-coated FBG during electrochemical deposition allows a detailed analysis of stress states due to changes in the growth morphology of the layer. The separation of mechanical and thermal contributions to this shift provides information on the individual Deposition processes in terms of a process fingerprint.

The final state of such a modified surface spot depends on many factors, most notably the local fluence and the surface’s crystal orientation. In this study, we induced superficial structure and phase changes in Silicon <111> and <100> wafers using single femtosecond laser pulses (790 nm, 30 fs) for a range of different peak fluences. The resulting surface modifications were studied in great detail using a number of different techniques, including spectroscopic imaging ellipsometry (SIE), atomic force microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy within scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM-EDX). Playing a pivotal role in this work, SIE provided non-destructive measurements for the calculation of the radial amorphous layer-thickness profiles of the irradiated spots using a two-layer thin-film model (Silicon dioxide and amorphous Silicon on a crystalline Silicon substrate). The measurements further allowed for the analysis of the oxide-layer modifications induced by the laser treatment. The results of the SIE-calculations were cross-checked by an in-depth material lamella via HRTEM and STEM-EDX.

The morphology of these structures, and so their chemistry, is influenced by the different laser processing parameters such as the laser fluence, wavelength, pulse repetition rate, laser light polarization type and direction, angle of incidence, and the effective number of laser pulses per beam spot area. However, the characterization of the different surface structures can be difficult because of constraints regarding the analytical information from both depth and the topographic artifacts which may limit the lateral and depth resolution of elemental distributions as well as their proper quantification. A promising technique to investigate these structures even at the nano-scale is Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS), a very surface sensitive technique that at the same time allows to perform depth-profiling, imaging and 3D-reconstruction of selected ion-sputter fragment distributions on the surface. In this study we combine chemical analyses such as Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses with ToF-SIMS to fully characterize the evolution of various types of laser-generated micro- and nanostructures formed on Ti and Ti alloys at different laser fluence levels, effective number of pulses and at different pulse repetition rates (1 – 400 kHz), following irradiation by near-infrared ultrashort laser pulses (925 fs, 1030 nm) in air environment or under argon gas flow. We show how this combined surface analytical approach allows to evaluate alteration in the surface chemistry of the laser-generated surface structures depending on the laser processing parameters and the ambient environment.

Opening new fields of application for a successful measurement technique brings some requirements and issues that have to be solved. From a metrological point of view, ellipsometry has the problem that uncertainties are difficult to determine for model-based analysis techniques in general. In this presentation, we will explore how the usefulness of polarimetric methods like ellipsometry can be increased. Ellipsometry as a method could profit from several current developments which will be discussed in this presentation: ‱ Standardisation initiatives on national and international level developing standards for best practice when using ellipsometry. A series of at least six standards is currently developed on national German and international level covering different levels of sample complexity. ‱ Projects on traceability of ellipsometry and structured surface spectrometry as well as new dielectric function database initiatives. ‱ Metadata handling and data ontology providing a better framework for exchange and collaborative use of research data. We will also explore the quantification of measurement uncertainty using examples from projects in which BAM is involved. Examples will be presented of multilayer and non-ideal materials as well as the determination of layer properties for technical applications such as thin layer catalysts and complex polymers. The definition of reference materials will be discussed.

The laser processing (i) was carried out by a Ti:sapphire laser (pulse duration 30 fs, central wavelength 790 nm, pulse repetition rate 1 kHz) in a regime of generating laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS). The experimental conditions (laser fluence, spatial spot overlap) were optimized in a sample-scanning setup for the processing of several square-millimeters large surface areas covered homogeneously by these nanostructures. The differently oxidized titanium surfaces were characterized by optical microscopy, micro Raman spectroscopy, variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry, and instrumented indentation testing. The tribological performance was characterized in the regime of mixed friction by reciprocating sliding tests against a sphere of hardened steel in fully formulated engine oil as lubricant. The specific tribological performance of the differently treated surfaces is discussed with respect to possible physical and chemical mechanisms.

As optical functions may represent any of these changes on the micro- and nano-scale, imaging ellipsometry (IE) is the technique of choice using either intensity, phase, or/and amplitude contrast for visualization of low-contrast surface modifications [1, 2]. Defects or surface and film features whether native or artificial, intended or unintended, avoidable or unavoidable as well as surface pattern are of interest for quality control. In contrast to microscopic techniques operated at normal incidence, ellipsometry as oblique-incidence technique provides improved contrast for vertically nano-scaled add-on or sub-off features such as ultra-thin transparent films, metallic island films, carbon-based thin films, laser modification or laser induced damage, dried stain, cleaning agent or polymeric residue. Two-sample reference techniques, i.e. referenced spectroscopic ellipsometry (RSE) may further increase sensitivity and decrease measurement time. In case of particulate accumulations depolarization contrast imaging (DCI) may improve the lateral resolution beyond the Abbe limit. This has been proven for silica spheres as reference in terms of single particles, particulate accumulations or particulate monolayers and layer stacks. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used for reference measurements of particle diameter, particle height, or particulate layer/accumulation thickness. It has been shown that single silica particles of 250 nm in diameter, i.e. at least a factor of 4 better than the lateral resolution limit as of now, can be visualized on even substrates. However, the ellipsometric measurement of particle diameters of this size needs further efforts interpretation.

N2 - The application of PVD-coatings ranges from mechanical engineering, i.e. thicker tribological coatings, to precision optics, i.e. thinner optical coatings. For physical vapor deposition (PVD) technologies such as evaporation, sputtering, ion beam assisted/driven deposition, vacuum is a prerequisite for two reasons: at first process-related ones (evaporation source, plasma discharge, and mean free path) and at second coating-related ones (pure, perfect, and dense films). Usually, the goal is a homogenous coating of defined stoichiometry and micro-structure without any imperfection. However, the implementation of micro- or nano-particles may occur accidentally or delibe-rately. Independent of the particle origin, there are two fundamental rules regarding coating functionality: at first, the larger the particle diameter to coating thickness ratio the more affected the functionality of the coating, and at second, the larger the material contrast in terms of the functional feature of interest the more affected the coating performance. Hence, embedded particles have to be avoided for the majority of thin films by all means. The unintended implementation of particles usually results in a malfunction of the coating from the beginning or is at least considered as a weak point of the coating creating a time-dependent defect under service conditions. The intended implementation of particles on surfaces and in coatings may create add-on features, topographic ones and functional ones, however, the facts mentioned hold true. Examples of particle-initiated coating defects are demonstrated in dependence on the origin and the field of application. Strategies for deliberate attachment/embedding of particles on surfaces/in coatings are discussed regarding process compatibility and coating integrity. For industrial applications, both the validation of process compatibility of particle injection and the plasma resistance of particles under vacuum and plasma conditions have to be confirmed. Further points of interest are the homogeneity of particle distribution and the avoidance of particle agglomeration which is still a crucial point for dry dispersed particles. So far, technical applications are limited to PVD hybrid coatings, plasma dispersion coatings are still a challenge except for applications where homogeneity is not required as in case of product authentication.

T1 - Multi-functional coatings for optical sensor applications: Surface plasmon resonance & magneto-optical coupling N2 - Multi-functional coatings are a key requirement for surface engineering. General demands are adhesion and long-term stability under service conditions. The modification of surfaces by means of PVD-, ECD- or hybrid processes allows an add-on functionalization of surfaces by a huge diversity of materials with both lateral and vertical micro-/nano-designs. This fact is a prerequisite for micro- and sensor-systems in lab-on-chip and sensor-on-chip technology. Two layer-based sensor principles are presented, i.e. surface plasmon resonance enhanced spectroscopic ellipsometry (SPREE) for detection of hazardous gases and magneto-optical sensors on smart-coated fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) for structural health monitoring (SHM). The interdependence of substrate features, coating properties, and layer design is discussed firstly for gas sensitivity and selectivity of SPREE-sensors and secondly for sensitivity and selectivity of magneto-strictive coatings to mechanical strain or external magnetic fields resulting in an optical displacement of the Bragg wavelength of FBG-sensors. Moreover, generic features such long-term stability, crucial process-related fabrication conditions, and effects of operational and environmental parameters are discussed with respect to the sensor performance. It has been shown that appropriate layer design and adapted selection of layer materials (SnOx/Au, Fe/Ni:SnOx/Au; Ni/NiFe-Cu-Cr) result in improved sensor parameters and may enable new sensor applications.

The glass Transition of thin polymer layers is currently under much investigation due to the nano-confinement effects proposed to appear in dependence on the layer thicknesses in the nm range. The properties of the polymer, the temperature range, as well as the thicknesses range of the polymer layers pose a serious challenge to the investigation by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry. By careful choice of experimental parameters, we were able to investigate the thickness change by temperature of PVME layers in the range between 2 and 300 nm and in the temperature range between 200 K and 340 K. By optimizing the analysis process, we were able to determine Tg values within this parameter range with sufficient accuracy to investigate the Tg change due to confinement effects. Alongside the change of position of the glass transition with thickness, we discuss the details of the ellipsometric analysis and its implications for the resulting thermal properties of the thin polymer layers as well as the accuracy of the Tg value with respect to the method used in the analysis process.

A1 - Beck, Uwe T1 - Calibration samples and the GUM-compliant determination of uncertainties in ellipsometry N2 - Ellipsometry is well known as a highly sensitive and reproducible surface analysis technique. However, in a context of metrological applications, the most important property of a measurement process is accuracy, relying on statistical precision, (reproducibility) and trueness (in an absolute sense versus a given standard). The latter is much more difficult to achieve. In this presentation, we discuss the possibility of establishing ellipsometry in a diverse metrological landscape by means of defining standard procedures and best practice methodologies for the measurement and for calibration purposes. The most important task of this approach is to determine the model-inherent uncertainty, originating from parameter coupling. We achieve this by means of sensitivity analysis of the parameters resulting from the fit process. We discuss the definition of reference materials by which accuracy can be made available for ellipsometry, passed along between ellipsometry laboratories and for other measurement techniques. The determination of uncertainty is presented in this work for a number of examples involving difficult analysis models employed for samples from different production environments. We present a standardization initiative with the goal to disseminate this work into an international standard alongside an inter-laboratory study comparing the results for complex samples gained by laboratories with different instrumentation. We also present the results gained within EURAMET projects focused on the metrology of materials with strong non-idealities used in photovoltaics and other energy technology.

Ablation duration was varied for optimization of NP generation processes between 10 and 90 min. Surface morphology of NPs as well as their size and shape (distribution) were analysed by various complementary electron microscopy techniques, i.e. SEM, TSEM and TEM. The crystalline structure of titanium oxide particles was investigated byXRD(two instruments operated in different geometries) and HR-TEM. Concentration of generated titanium oxide NPs in liquid was analysed by ICP-MS. A mix of crystalline (mainly anatase), partly crystalline and amorphous spherical titanium oxide NPs can be reported having a mean size between 10 and 20 nm, which is rather independent of the laser ablation (LA) duration. A second component consisting of irregularly shaped, but crystalline titanium oxide nanostructures is co-generated in the LA water, with more pronounced occurrence at longer LA times. The provenance of this component is assigned to those spherical particles generated in suspension and passing through the converging laser beam, being hence subject to secondary irradiation effects, e. g. fragmentation.

Taking benefit of laser sources with ultrashort (fs) pulse durations features outstanding precision of machining and negligible rims or burrs surrounding the laser-irradiation zone. Consequently, additional mechanical or chemical post-processing steps are usually not required for fs-laser surface texturing (fs-LST). This work aimed to provide a bridge between research in the field of tribology and laser materials processing. The paper reviews the current state-of-the-art in fs-LST, with a focus on the tribological performance (friction and wear) of specific self-organized surface structures (so-called ripples, grooves, and spikes) on steel and titanium alloys. On the titanium alloy, specific sickle-shaped hybrid micro-nanostructures were also observed and tribologically tested. Care is taken to identify accompanying effects affecting the materials hardness, superficial oxidation, nano- and microscale topographies, and the role of additives contained in lubricants, such as commercial engine oil.

One possible goal is the development of electrochemical conversion processes using catalysts. Porous materials play an important role in such energy applications. The key to the development of improved catalysts is a better understanding of the relations between their performance, stability and physico-chemical properties. However, the complex morphology of such catalysts constitutes a challenge even for modern analytical techniques. Spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) is a versatile method for studying material properties by using appropriate models (e.g. film thickness, optical and electronic properties). The fact that the material properties cannot be taken directly from the measured spectra, the developed models have to be validated. In a first step, the model for the ellipsometric fit studies of a calcination series of mesoporous iridium oxide films (300 – 600 °C) was investigated and validated with respect to their material properties. Moreover, the electronic structures of the catalysts reveal a direct correlation with electrochemical activities. The development of an environmental cell offers the possibility of investigations under real conditions. This will allow changes in the optical and electronic properties during the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction. T2 - Colloquium Department Seminar 6.

Based on this operational principle, white light interference microscopy (WLIM) provides three-dimensional surface topometry data up to a resolution of 0.4 ÎŒm lateral and 0.1 nm vertical. Three operating modi, i.e. surface, films and advanced films, enable measurements of step heights, roughness, wear volume, cone angle, surface pattern and layer thickness of transparent coatings. The determination of layer thickness by WLIM requires the knowledge of optical constants, i.e.the refractive index n and the extinction coefficient k. For technical surfaces, data base values - if available at all - have to be determined or validated by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). From this oblique incidence technique both optical constants and layer thickness can be derived based on a model for at least semi-transparent coatings. For different layer thicknesses, a comparison is made between WLIM and SE. Measurement uncertainty is discussed for both topometric features and layer thickness for different use cases. Traceability to SI system is ensured by certified standards (PTB/NIST) within a DAkkS DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 accredited lab.

T1 - Analysis of elemental composition and porosity of mesoporous IrOx-TiOx thin films by SEM/EDS N2 - Porous materials play an important role in several fields of technology, especially for energy applications like photovoltaics, electrolysis or batteries. The activity of porous films is affected by properties like porosity, film thickness, chemical composition of the material, as well as the crystallinity of the framework. The complex morphology of such porous films constitutes a challenge even for modern analytical techniques and requires new approaches employing the combination/complementation of data of different analytical methods. In this contribution, we characterise thin mesoporous iridium-titanium mixed oxide film properties by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) at an SEM. Mesoporous iridium oxide - titanium oxide (IrOx-TiOx) films were prepared via dip-coating of a solution containing a triblock-copolymer as structure-directing agent, an iridium precursor as well as a titanium precursor in ethanol. IrOx-TiOx films were synthesized with different amounts of iridium and calcined in air. The SEM micrographs reveal for all films the achievement of a well-ordered mesoporous structure and homogeneous films with thicknesses between 67 nm and 152 nm. For the determination of film elemental composition and porosity, EPMA can be used as part of a combined SEM/EDS/STRATAGem analysis. Elemental compositions and mass depositions (in ÎŒg cm-2) of IrOx-TiOx films were calculated with the thin film analysis Software STRATAGem via k-values measured with SEM/EDS. Pure bulk Ir, TiO2 and Si were measured as references. The average density of the films was obtained from the mass Deposition and the film thickness as measured by cross-section SEM. The porosity was then extracted from the measured average film density divided by a theoretical bulk density. The latter is calculated from the weight fractions of IrOx and TiOx as determined with STRATAGem and the bulk mass densities of IrO2 and TiO2 (rutil) from literature. The fitting results of the k-values from the STRATAGem software, which are in fair agreement with the measured k-values. The application of the SEM/EDS/STRATAGem approach for accurate porosity determination on pure mesoporous TiOx films and pure porous IrOx films has been recently demonstrated. The porosities of pure IrOx, TiOx and mixed IrOx-TiOx films in this study have been determined.

This method is already extensive standardized in ISO 14577 part 1-4. In the past, the application of this standard in testing praxis shows that the established values have an excellent precision.If an uncertainty is calculated, the range of values within which the true value is asserted to lie with some level of confidencewill be known. In part 1 of ISO 14577 [1] two methods for evaluation of the uncertainty in IIT are mentioned: Method 1 for determining uncertainty considers only those uncertainties associated with the overall measurement performance of the testing machine with respect to the reference blocks. Method 2calculates a combined uncertainty from individual contributions. These may be grouped into random and systematic uncertainties. Both methods will be described in detail using examples from the dailyexperimental praxis. The comparabilityof both methods will be critically discussed. Finally, it will be showedhow the calculated uncertaintiescan be used for performancetests and product specifications.

One biopanning round followed by NGS selects robust PP-binding peptides that are not evident by Sanger sequencing. NGS provides a significant statistical base that enables motif analysis, statistics on positional residue depletion/enrichment, and data analysis to suppress false-positive sequences from amplification bias. The selected sequences are employed as water-based primers for PP-metal adhesion to condition PP surfaces and increase adhesive strength by 100% relative to nonprimed PP.

T1 - Adhesion of Coatings vs. Strength of Composite Materials – A Review of Applications Evaluated by Centrifugal Adhesion Testing (CAT) N2 - Sufficient adhesion/tensile strength are basic requirements for any coating/composite material. For coatings, adhesive strength in N/mm2 is of Major interest for various applications such as decorative and water-repellent coatings on wood (paints and varnishes), optical coatings on glass and polymers (reflectors and filters), electrical coatings on semiconductors, glass and polymers (conducting and bondable layers), mechanical coatings on metals and polymers (wear-reduction, scratch-resistance) and adhesion-promoting layers. For composite materials, tensile strength in N/mm2 is also a key quantity for carbon fiber reinforced composites (CFC), laminates and adhesive-bonded joints. Centrifugal adhesion testing (CAT) transfers the single-sample tensile test from a tensile or universal testing machine into an analytical centrifuge as multiple-sample test of up to eight test pieces. The one-sided sample support instead of a two-sided sample clamping and the absence of mounting- and testing-correlated shear forces provides fast and reliable results both for adhesive strength and bonding strength by means of bonded test stamps. For bonding strength, the evaluation of failure pattern from microscopic inspection is required in order to determine the failure pattern according to ISO 10365 such as adhesive failure (AF), delamination failure (DF) and cohesive failure (CF). Hence, one test run by CAT-technology provides either statistics or ranking of up to eight samples at once. For adhesive strength of coatings, a variety of examples is discussed such as ALD-Al203 layers as adhesion promoters, evaporated Ag-layers on N-BK7 glass, sputtered Cr- and Al-layers on Borofloat 33 glass, evaporated Au-films on N-BK7 glass and sputtered SiO2 -layers on CR39 Polymer. Provided adhesive or bonding strength are high enough, the substrate or the joining part may also fail.

T1 - Role of Water in Phase Transformations and Crystallization of Ferrihydrite and Hematite N2 - The oxides, hydroxides, and oxo-hydroxides of iron belong to the most abundant materials on earth. They also feature a wide range of practical applications. In many environments, they can undergo facile phase transformations and crystallization processes. Water appears to play a critical role in many of these processes. Despite numerous attempts, the role of water has not been fully revealed yet. We present a new approach to study the influence of water in the crystallization and phase transformations of iron oxides. The approach employs model-type iron oxide films that comprise a defined homogeneous nanostructure. The films are exposed to air containing different amounts of water reaching up to pressures of 10 bar. Ex situ analysis via scanning electron microscopy, Transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, and X-ray diffraction is combined with operando near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to follow water-induced changes in hematite nd ferrihydrite. Water proves to be critical for the nucleation of ematite domains in ferrihydrite, the resulting crystallite orientation, and the underlying crystallization mechanism.

T1 - Multiple-sample Testing: Adhesive Strength of Coatings and Bonding Strength of Adhesives evaluated by Centrifugal Adhesion Testing (CAT) N2 - The quantitative determination of adhesion and cohesion properties is a key requirement for adhesive-bonded joints and coated components in both R&D and Quality assurance. Because of the huge variety of layer/substrate Systems in terms of materials and large thickness range, adhesion tests display the same diversity as layer/substrate systems. There are only two tensile testing procedures available, that determine adhesive strength in terms of force per area (N/mmÂČ), the single-sample pull-off test in a tensile testing machine and the multiple-sample-test using the Centrifugal Adhesion Testing (CAT) Technology. The CAT Technology is a testing method which uses centrifugal force as tensile testing force in a multiple-sample arrangement within a drum rotor of a Desktop centrifuge. Hence, the adhesive/bonding strength ïłA/B can be determined on a statistical basis under identical testing conditions for up to eight samples. A variety of examples for bonding strength of adhesives, adhesive strength of coatings and compound strength of composite materials is discussed such as metalto-metal and glass-to-metal bonding, sputtered SiO2-layers on CR39 Polymer and carbon fiber reinforced polymer.

T1 - Colloidal bimetallic platinum–ruthenium nanoparticles in ordered mesoporous carbon films as highly active electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction N2 - Hydrogen features a very high specific energy density and is therefore a promising candidate for clean fuel from renewable resources. Water electrolysis can convert electrical energy into storable and transportable hydrogen gas. Under acidic conditions, platinum is the most active and stable monometallic catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Yet, platinum is rare and needs to be used efficiently. Here, we report a synthesis concept for colloidal bimetallic platinum–ruthenium and rhodium–ruthenium nanoparticles (PtRuNP, RhRuNP) and their incorporation into ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) films. The films exhibit high surface area, good electrical conductivity and well-dispersed nanoparticles inside the mesopores. The nanoparticles retain their size, crystallinity and composition during carbonization. In the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), PtRuNP/OMC catalyst films show up to five times higher activity per Pt than Pt/C/NafionÂź and PtRu/C/NafionÂź reference catalysts.

T1 - Hierarchical micro-/nano-structures on polycarbonate via UV pulsed laser processing N2 - Hierarchical micro/-nanostructures were produced on polycarbonate polymer surfaces by employing a two-step UV-laser processing strategy based on the combination of Direct Laser Interference Patterning (DLIP) of gratings and pillars on the microscale (3 ns, 266 nm, 2 kHz) and subsequently superimposing Laser-induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS; 7–10 ps, 350 nm, 100 kHz) which adds nanoscale surface features. Particular emphasis was laid on the influence of the direction of the laser beam polarization on the morphology of resulting hierarchical surfaces. Scanning electron and atomic force microscopy methods were used for the characterization of the hybrid surface structures. Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) calculations of the laser intensity distribution on the DLIP structures allowed to address the specific polarization dependence of the LIPSS formation observed in the second processing step. Complementary chemical analyzes by micro-Raman spectroscopy and attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy provided in-depth information on the chemical and structural material modifications and material degradation imposed by the laser processing. It was found that when the linear laser polarization was set perpendicular to the DLIP ridges, LIPSS could be formed on top of various DLIP structures. FDTD calculations showed enhanced optical intensity at the topographic maxima, which can explain the dependency of the morphology of LIPSS on the polarization with respect to the orientation of the DLIP structures. It was also found that the degradation of the polymer was enhanced for increasing accumulated fluence levels.

Of particular interest are bacterial infections of prosthetic materials, which usually cannot be eliminated due to the high antibiotic resistance known for bacteria forming biofilms. The search for new materials and coatings with lower colonization potential and antibacterial activity is of great importance to reduce biofilm formation. However, there is no standardized procedure to examine the colonization characteristics of bacteria in the Biofilm state in situ. Here, we describe an automated epifluorescence microscopy system for the semi-quantitative analysis of three-dimensional (3D) biofilms on various surfaces. To analyze adherent bacteria, three materials (glass, steel and titanium) were incubated with bacteria in a flow chamber system. After fluorescence staining of the bacteria, automated image capturing, quantification of the bacteria, measurement of the colonized area and determination of the 3D biofilm height were carried out by using novel software. Furthermore, the materials were examined for their surface topography using white light scanning interferometry. Titanium compared to glass showed a significantly higher number of adherent bacteria. We argue that this was due to the higher microroughness of titanium. The colonized area was in accordance with the number of adherent bacteria and was also significantly larger on titanium coupons compared to glass. Maximum 3D biofilm height on glass coupons was significantly lower compared to the ones on steel and titanium. This novel method enables the standardized, automated investigation of the colonization with bacteria on different materials. This approach can considerably support the characterization of new material surfaces and their innovative coatings by analyzing the amount of attached Bacteria and thickness of biofilms in situ and eliminates the need of conventional cultivation.

Fragen zur Degradation der Sensoren unter Beanspruchung, Alterung durch klimatische EinflĂŒsse und Enthaftung infolge Belastung der Struktur konnten bisher nur theoretisch simuliert oder anhand exemplarischer Proben fĂŒr einzelne einflussnehmende Parameter im Labor untersucht werden. Die Erfassung des Sensorverhaltens im Bauteil unter komplexen UmwelteinflĂŒssen wĂ€hrend des Bauteilbetriebes, um damit eine Aussage zur ZuverlĂ€ssigkeit der Sensormessdaten zu gewinnen, war bisher nicht möglich. Im Forschungsprojekt FAMOSÂČ wurde deshalb von 2014 bis 2018 die Realisierung eines Autodiagnoseverfahrens fĂŒr faseroptische Dehnungssensoren erarbeitet, um die FunktionszuverlĂ€ssigkeit und LangzeitstabilitĂ€t der Sensoren wĂ€hrend des Bauteilbetriebes innerhalb einer Bauteilstruktur bewerten zu können. Im Rahmen des Forschungsprojektes wurde gezeigt, dass ein FBG-Sensor mit einer speziell angepassten magnetostriktiven Schicht magnetisch so angeregt werden kann, dass mit einer zugeschnittenen Messmethodik zu jedem Zeitpunkt eine Bewertung der SensorzuverlĂ€ssigkeit unter Betriebsbedingungen möglich ist. Die auf den Sensor aufgebrachte magnetostriktive Schicht erzeugt bei Anregung mit einem passenden Magnetfeld eine gepulste, synthetische Dehnung. Diese Dehnung steht in einem definierten VerhĂ€ltnis zum anregenden Magnetfeld und wird optisch ĂŒber die Verschiebung der Bragg-WellenlĂ€nge ausgelesen. Die Konstanz dieses VerhĂ€ltnisses stellt dann ein Maß fĂŒr die korrekte FunktionsfĂ€higkeit des Sensors dar. Das Beschichtungs-verfahren, das magnetische Anregungs- und optische Ausleseverfahren, wie auch die Validierung des Sensors unter BerĂŒcksichtigung faseroptischer Effekte wurden wĂ€hrend des Projekts konzeptionell entwickelt, aufgebaut und charakterisiert. Qualitativ kann mit diesem Verfahren zunĂ€chst eine Gut-/Schlecht-Beurteilung des Sensors vorgenommen werden. Perspektivisch bietet das Verfahren jedoch auch die Möglichkeit, verschiedene Versagensmechanismen bestimmen und klassifizieren zu können. Es zeichnete sich schon wĂ€hrend des Projektverlaufs ab, dass sich aus den erzielten Ergebnissen ĂŒber das Autodiagnoseverfahren hinaus weitere Anwendungsmöglichkeiten fĂŒr den Einsatz des kombinierten magnetostriktiv-faseroptischen Sensorprinzips, beispielsweise als reiner Magnetfeldsensor, ergeben. Nach Abschluss dieses Forschungsprojekts besteht nun die Möglichkeit, den Funktionszustand faseroptischer Dehnungssensoren jederzeit unabhĂ€ngig von Alter, Belastung oder Kenntnis eines Referenzzustands zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt bestimmen zu können. Aufbauend auf diesen Ergebnissen können weiterfĂŒhrende Forschungen die Messmethodik vertiefend charakterisieren und weitere AnwendungsfĂ€lle erschließen.

Die Auswahl an verfĂŒgbaren Klebstoffen und Vorbehandlungsoptionen ist dabei ebenfalls vielfĂ€ltig.

Schnelle PrĂŒfverfahren zur Ermittlung von Verbundeigenschaften sind somit erforderlich. Das Messprinzip Centrifugal Adhesion Testing Technologie verwendet die radial gerichtete Zentrifugalkraft als BelastungsgrĂ¶ĂŸe des zu testenden Verbunds, die durch Variation der Drehzahl gesteuert wird.

T1 - Correlative analysis of mesoporous thin IrOx-TiOx mixed oxide films for understanding the impact of synthesis conditions N2 - Porous materials play an important role in several fields of technology, especially for energy applications like photovoltaics, electrolysis or batteries. The activity of thin porous films is affected by properties like porosity, film thickness, chemical composition of the material as well as the homogenous dispersion of the active species within the porous matrix. The complex morphology of such porous films constitutes a challenge even for modern analytical techniques and requires new approaches employing the combination/complementation of data of different analytical methods. In this contribution we characterize thin mesoporous iridium-titanium mixed oxide film properties by complementary analysis of SEM/EDS, ToF-SIMS, NanoSIMS, AES and spectroscopic ellipsometry. Mesoporous iridium oxide - titanium oxide (IrOx-TiOx) films can be prepared by a well-established Synthesis route via soft-templating. IrOx-TiOx films are very sensitive to the conditions of synthesis. Analysis by SEM and NanoSIMS imaging suggests IrOx-TiOx films with and without a homogenous dispersion of IrOx within the TiOx film matrix under different synthesis conditions. Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) analysis in the depth-profile mode as well as cross-section line-scan AES measurements of an inhomogeneous IrOx-TiOx film indicate the presence of an IrOx-rich Phase dispersion both at the surface of IrOx-TiOx film as well as within the film. The contribution will assess in detail the sensitivity of the synthesis conditions and the characterization of the thin metal oxide films. Moreover, the correlation between and comparison to other measurement techniques will be discussed.

These adsorbed layers have shown greate potential for technological applications. However, their growth kinetics and molecular dynamics are still not fully understood. This is partly due to the hard accessibility of these layers in thin films. Here, the irreversibly adsorbed layers of homopolymer thin films are revealed by solvent-leaching experiments. First, the growth kinetics of these layers is investigated as a function of annealing time, annealing temperature, leaching time and the original filme thickness. The film thickness, topography and the quality of the adsorbed layer is controlled by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Secondly, the molecular mobility of the adsorbed layer is investigated by Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy (BDS). A recently developed nanostructured capacitor arrangement is employed to measure the layer with a free surface. The results are quantitatively compared and discussed with respect to recently published work.

Die Auswahl an verfĂŒgbaren Klebstoffen und Vorbehandlungsoptionen sind dabei - wie die Applikationen auch - vielfĂ€ltig. Es werden vier Applikationsbeispiele zu Referenzklebverbunden aus Edelstahl, zur Plasmaaktivierung von Niedrigenergie-Polymeren, zur Bestimmung der Haftfestigkeit von Lackierungen auf GFK und zur Wirkung von Primern vorgestellt. Einige Polymere weisen z.B. Eigenschaften auf, die eine Herstellung von festen und dauerhaft beanspruchbaren Kleb-verbindungen erschweren. Im Allgemeinen geht dies mit geringen OberflĂ€chenenergien einher. Mittels OberflĂ€chenvorbehandlung, z.B. durch Plasmafeinreinigung bzw. Plasmaaktivierung, können die GrenzflĂ€chen solcher Polymere - bezogen auf die Eignung als FĂŒgeteile (Klebfestigkeit) oder als Substrat (Haftfestigkeit) – optimiert bzw. die OberflĂ€chenenergie erhöht werden.

To ensure safety, their replacement is recommended by tank manufacturers after a period of 30 years. Polyethylene is subject to ageing by alteration of the properties during its life cycle. The degree of degradation and the nature of the process mainly depend on the chemical alteration of the polyethylene, the wall thickness of the tank and the environmental conditions. There are no data available on the long-term behaviour of the polyethylene grades, especially after a service life of more than 30 years. The aim of this investigation was to find a suitable test method to determine the factual degree of damage in comparison to the uncontaminated polyethylene grades. Material data of the used polyethylene grades are available because the BAM was the competent authority for the tests and expert reports for the approval of these tanks until the middle of the 1990s. Therefore, tank sections from the bottom, the shell and the roof of 22 individual storage tanks produced of polyethylene grades A and B have been examined by Melt Flow Rate (MFR) and Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR). Their service life was in the range between 20 and 41 years. The MFR measurements of the tank sections showed differences in the values depending on the weight which was used (5 kg or 21.6 kg). An increase of the MFR was determined for the samples of polyethylene grade A, whereas a reduction of the MFR values was measured for most samples of polyethylene grade B. This grade is mainly subject to the internal ageing by cross-linkages, increased degree of branched molecules and loss of the plasticizer. ATR analysis exhibits an absorption band at 909 cm‒1 predominantly in samples of polyethylene grade A indicating chain scission and concomitantly formed terminal vinyl groups. This absorption band can be used for the characterization of the ageing of the polyethylene grades.

T1 - Centrifugal force meets materials testing – analytical centrifuge as multipurpose tool for tensile and compressive stress testing N2 - Up until several years ago, tensile and compressive tests have been exclusively carried out as single-sample tests within a tensile, hardness or universal testing machine. The availability of centrifuge technology changed this situation in 2013 in several ways because centrifugal force is used as testing force within a rotational reference frame. Firstly, multiple-sample strength testing became feasible for both tensile load condi-tions, e.g. determination of composite, bonding or adhesive strength, and compressive load conditions, e.g. hardness, compressibility and compactibility. Secondly, there is no need for a two-sided sample clamping and double-cardanic suspensions as samples are simply inserted using a one-sided sample support. Thirdly, shear forces can be avoided by means of guiding sleeves which steer test stamps acting as mass bodies for either tensile or compressive testing. Fourthly, up to eight samples can be tested under identical conditions within a very short period of time, typically within 15 minutes including sample loading and unloading. Hence, either a reliable statistics (of identical samples) or a ranking (of different samples) can be derived from one test run. The bench-top test system is described in detail and demonstrated that centrifugal force acts as testing force in an appropriate way because Euler and Coriolis force do not affect the testing results. Examples for both tensile strength testing, i.e. bonding strength of adhesives-bonded joints and adhesive strength of coatings, and compres-sive strength testing, i.e. Vickers-, Brinell- and ball indentation hardness and deter-mination of spring constants, are presented, discussed and compared with conven-tional tests within tensile, hardness or universal testing machines. At present, a maximum testing force of 6.5 kN can be realized which results at test stamp diameters of 5 mm, 7 mm, and 10 mm in tensile or compressive stress values of 80 MPa, 160 MPa, and 320 MPa. For tensile strength, this is already beyond bonding strength of cold- and warm-curing adhesives. Moreover, centrifuge technology is compliant to standards such as EN 15870, EN ISO 4624, EN ISO 6506/6507 and VDI/VDE 2616. Programmable test cycles allow both short-term stress and log-term fatigue tests. Based on a variety of examples of surface and bonding technology, applications in both fields R&D and QC are presented. Meanwhile, centrifuge technology is also accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025.

The complex morphology of such porous films constitutes a challenge for modern analytical techniques and requires approaches employing the combination/complementation of data of different analytical methods. In this contribution we characterize thin mesoporous iridium-titanium mixed oxide film properties by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). Mesoporous iridium oxide - titanium oxide (IrOx-TiOx) films were prepared via dip-coating of a solution containing a triblock-copolymer as structure-directing agent, an iridium precursor as well as a titanium precursor in ethanol. Deposited films with different amounts of iridium (0 wt%Ir to 100 wt%Ir) were synthesized and calcined in air. The thin films were analyzed with SE using the Bruggeman effective medium approximation (BEMA) for modelling. The results were compared with electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) as part of a combined SEM/EDS/STRATAGem Analysis.

T1 - Mueller-matrix imaging ellipsometry of structural anomalies and inhomogenities N2 - In the last years, the implementation of imaging ellipsometry in the variety of optical characterization techniques has shown tremendous potential to analyze the topology of surfaces in the lateral dimension. In the later studies, this contrast-rich surface images were affiliated with changes of the refraction indices, Absorption bands or layer thicknesses. However, it was realized that additional factors like curvature or scattering can have a great Impact on the ellipsometric readout of the analyzed system. In this study, we focus on the systematic evaluation of structural anomalies and inhomogenities of several Basic systems. This includes spherical particles as a model for microscopic curved surfaces in a range of 0.25 to 25 ÎŒm in diameter. In the macroscopic regime several conventional convex lenses were analyzed. Additional affords were made to generate microscopic concave model systems by applying nanoindentation with a spherical indentation unit. With this method calottes with a depth of 0.04 to 2 ÎŒm and radius of 2.5 ÎŒm were made. The macroscopic counterpart is delivered by conventional concave lens systems. For all systems, a variety of different bulk materials was investigated. This includes metal oxides, metals and polymers as well as combinations of each by applying coatings on the bulk materials with different layer thicknesses. To analyze these structural anomalies and inhomogenities properly, Mueller-Matrix imaging ellipsometry is the method of choice to address cross- and depolarization effects that occur due to the curved surfaces. Supplementary methods were used for an independent characterization of the topological properties of all structural anomalies and inhomogenities. This includes AFM and SEM for the microscopic samples (microparticles and nanoindented holes) and white light interferometry for the macroscopic lenses. This study results in a systematic screening of different coated and uncoated material systems with a topology that does not fit into conventional ellipsometry and thus is analyzed by Muller-Matrix imaging ellipsometry. This will help in quality control and is a contribution to the understanding of the polarizing effects of non-ideal Systems analyzed by ellipsometry.

Spin coating was used for the layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition of poly-(ethylenimine) (PEI) and poly([o-cresyl glycidyl ether]-co-formaldehyde) (CNER) bilayers. The film chemistry and the cross-linking process were characterized by means of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Ellipsometric data confirmed the linear increase of film thickness. The potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results indicate the improvement of the film barrier properties with increasing film thickness. Mapping of the topography and the volta potential was performed by means of scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy (SKPFM). The results indicate the presence of a homogeneous film structure, while the intermetallic phases can still be identified below the coating. The SKPFM Analysis confirmed that the model films are suitable for investigation of corrosion processes at the coating/metal interface.

The activity of corresponding catalytic coatings strongly depends on material properties such as film thickness, crystallinity, electrical conductivity, and chemical surface speciation. Measuring these properties with high accuracy in vacuum-free and nondestructive methods facilitates the elucidation of structure−activity relationships in realistic environments. Here, we report a novel approach to analyze the optical and electrical properties of highly active oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts via spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). Using a series of differently calcined, mesoporous, templated iridium oxide films as an example, we assess the film thickness, porosity, electrical resistivity, electron concentration, electron mobility, and interband and intraband transition energies by modeling of the optical spectra. Independently performed analyses using scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, ellipsometric porosimetry, X-ray reflectometry, and absorption spectroscopy indicate a high accuracy of the deduced material properties. A comparison of the derived analytical data from SE, resonant photoemission spectroscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy with activity measurements of the OER suggests that the intrinsic activity of iridium oxides scales with a shift of the Ir 5d t2g sub-level and an increase of p−d interband transition energies caused by a transition of ÎŒ1-OH to ÎŒ3-O species.

T1 - Towards hydrogen economy: multimethod analysis and operando investigation of mesoporous iridium oxides films for electrocatalysis, EMPIR/EURAMET Project HyMet 16ENG03 N2 - In the face of rising energy demand and the impending climate change the development of a sustainable, fossil-free fuel and chemical production is of global importance. One possible goal is the development of electrochemical conversion processes using catalysts. Porous materials play an important role in such energy applications. The key to the development of improved catalysts is a better understanding of the relations between their performance, stability and physico-chemical properties. However, the complex morphology of such catalysts constitutes a challenge even for modern analytical techniques. Spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) is a versatile method for studying material properties by using appropriate models (e.g. film thickness, optical and electronic properties). The fact that the material properties cannot be taken directly from the measured spectra, the developed models have to be validated. In a first step, the model for the ellipsometric fit studies of a calcination series of mesoporous iridium oxide films (300 – 600 °C) was investigated and validated with respect to their material properties. Moreover, the electronic structures of the catalysts reveal a direct correlation with electrochemical activities. The development of an environmental cell offers the possibility of investigations under real conditions. This will allow changes in the optical and electronic properties during the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction.

As model system for a concave curvature, a set of three spherical microscopic indents in silicon (100) of different sizes was prepared by instrumented indentation testing using a spherical indenter. For reference, these samples were characterized by AFM to reveal the topography of each structure. The concavelike indents were analyzed by Mueller-Matrix imaging ellipsometry to extract lateral intensity images of 12 elements of the Mueller-Matrix. As a result of the detailed analysis of the image elements m22, m23, and m14, it was possible to correlate intensity changes and symmetry properties to depolarization and cross polarization induced by the edge threshold and the curved surface of the indent.

N2 - The thermodynamic behavior of thin PVME films including the irreversible adsorbed layer on the substrate is investigated. In a first step, the growth kinetics of the adsorbed layer was studied combining a leaching technique and atomic force microscopy. Further, it was shown that there is a critical initial film thickness for the formation of a surface-filling adsorbed layer. Additionally, spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements were carried out to investigate the influence of the adsorbed layer on the glass transition temperature of the thin films. For 30 nm films and below, the influence of the adsorbed layer percolates strongly to the bulk-like layer of the film. Finally, the molecular dynamics of the adsorbed layer was studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy, employing nanostructured-electrode systems. One process was revealed, which was assigned either to molecular fluctuations taking place in a loosely-bounded the part of the adsorbed layer, or to the desorption/adsorption of segments at the substrate.

Spectroscopic imaging ellipsometry (SIE) allows fast data acquisition at multiple wavelengths and provides experimental data for calculating nanometric amorphous layer thickness profiles with micrometric lateral resolution based on a thin-film layer model. For a radially Gaussian laser beam and at moderate peak fluences above the melting and below the ablation thresholds, laterally parabolic amorphous layer profiles with maximum thicknesses of several tens of nanometers were quantitatively attained. The accuracy of the calculations is verified experimentally by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM-EDX). Along with topographic information obtained by atomic force microscopy (AFM), a comprehensive picture of the superficial re-solidification of silicon after local melting by femtosecond laser pulses is drawn.

This method is already extensive standardized in EN ISO 14577 part 1-4. Because of the great interest of researchers and industries in investigations of time depending material behavior mostly all suppliers of IIT equipment are offering the possibility of dynamic testing. Realizing this development ISO/TC 164/SC3 Hardness Testing has proposed to start the new standardization project “Linear elastic dynamic instrumented indentation testing DIIT”. The development of this standard is accompanied by the first international intercomparing exercise comparing results of dynamic instrumented indentation testing from testing machines using different hardware solutions and different models for data evaluation. The draft of part 5 of ISO 14577 “Linear elastic dynamic instrumented indentation testing DIIT” specifies verification and calibration of testing machines for carrying out the measurement of the dynamic material response when an oscillatory force or displacement, with amplitudes small in comparison to the prescribed target values, is imparted to the indenter while the indenter is continuously loaded to a prescribed target load or target depth or while the load or displacement is held constant at a prescribed target value. In case of a material showing plastic-elastic behavior, the measured dynamic response is used for continuous evaluation of the dynamic stiffness of the contact as a function of depth and frequency. Using the dynamic stiffness of the contact a reduced dynamic modulus will be calculated. In case of a material showing visco-elastic behavior from the measured dynamic response also the dynamic contact damping coefficient as function of depth and frequency is evaluated continuously. Using dynamic contact stiffness and dynamic contact damping coefficient reduced lost and storage modulus for visco-elastic materials will be calculated. The main normative requirements of the draft will be presented and discussed in the light of the first results of the intercomparing excise.

These adsorbed layers have shown greate potential for technological applications. However, their growth kinetics and molecular dynamics are still not fully understood. This is partly due to the hard accessibility of these layers in thin films. Here, the irreversibly adsorbed layers of homopolymer thin films are revealed by solvent-leaching experiments. First, the growth kinetics of these layers is investigated as a function of annealing time, annealing temperature, leaching time and the original filme thickness. The film thickness, topography and the quality of the adsorbed layer is controlled by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Secondly, the molecular mobility of the adsorbed layer is investigated by Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy (BDS). A recently developed nanostructured capacitor arrangement is employed to measure the layer with a free surface. The results are quantitatively compared and discussed with respect to recently published work.

A1 - Hielscher, Stefan A1 - Grunwald, Daniel A1 - Beck, Uwe T1 - Determination of coating properties by using analytical centrifugation N2 - The majority of all products have coated surfaces designed to fulfil different requirements. Building constructions are exposed to external influences like a wide temperature and humidity range, rain and UV radiation to name a few. The extension of machine life for metal cutting tools, like drills or milling cutters is another field of application for coated surfaces. The surfaces have to be modified in a way to maintain their specific functionality. Although adhesion testing of coatings is of great interest, it is still a challenge to obtain reliable quantitative results and to meet economic requirements. In this talk we deal with the curing behaviour of different 2-component epoxy paint systems for corrosion protection of metal constructions. After preparation of specimens the strength was determined in specified time intervals during curing. It could be shown that epoxy paints differ significantly on curing time as well as final strength. The second experimental study deals with coating systems on glass fibre reinforced plastics which are used for wind power turbines to reduce abrasive wear and ice adhesion for aerodynamic and safety reasons. All measurements have been carried out by CAT-TechnologyTM (Centrifugal Adhesion Testing), which uses the radially directed centrifugal force as test-load. The multi-sample test instrument analyses up to eight test specimen under identical testing conditions. By varying the rotational speed (100 rpm up to 13,000 rpm), forces from 0.1 N to 6.5 kN are applied. Upon reaching the critical rupture force, the stamp separates from the substrate and a sample related IR-signal is sent from the spinning rotor. For each test specimen breaking force is calculated and displayed in real-time. The innovative measurement principle meets the requirements of DIN EN 15870 and ISO 4624.

T1 - Plasma Activation and Plasma-assisted ALD Surface Modification of Polymers for Improved Bonding and Adhesive Strength N2 - Bonding strength is crucial on polymers of low surface energy, for clean surfaces limited to 0.5, 1, and 2 MPa for PTFE, PP, and PE. Plasma treatment may improve bonding strength by a factor of 2 (PTFE) or 5 (PP and PE). The efficiency of treatment is usually 10% as both low pressure and atmospheric pressure processes show low topographic conformity. Besides, lifetime of activation/modification is rather short. Hence, bonding has to be carried out immediately after plasma treatment. The concept of plasma-assisted ALD (atomic layer deposition) interlayers was introduced in the project HARFE of SENTECH (modification/deposition/in-situ monitoring) and BAM (bonding, characterization, testing). ALD deposition has a high surface conformity and for dielectric films of Al2O3 also a good long-term stability given that the films are dense enough. Based on TMA and O2/O3 precursors, ALD layer stacks from 60 to 375 monolayers were prepared under different conditions. For a transfer time of 24 hours from deposition to measurement, bonding strength could be increased up to 5 MPa (PTFE) respectively 10 MPa (PP, PE). The huge potential of ALD layers as adhesive interlayers was demonstrated for Al2O3 on stainless steel with bonding strength beyond 15 MPa, i.e. interface strength within the ALD stack is also in this range. This is a prerequisite for subsequent PVD/CVD-deposition in hybrid systems. By means of the SI ALD LL system of SENTECH thermal and plasma-supported ALD processes can be alternatively realized. Ellipsometric in-situ monitoring provides monolayer sensitivity and reveals that the efficient bonding of the lower ALD layers on the polymer has to be further improved. Testing of bonding strength was realized by CAT (centrifugal adhesion testing) technology. It was shown that ALD modification correlates with the increase of surface energy and bonding strength.

N2 - Transparent conductive oxide (TCO) films are a vital part of a large part of modern technology. The production of TCO materials has sparked much development in plasma coating technology. Quality control measurements of these layers are therefore important in many fields of optics and electronics such as high efficiency thin film photovoltaics. In this presentation, we report on optical measurements of ZnSnOx layers generated by DC/RF magnetron plasma co-sputtering. By changing the respective power on two different targets, the overall power, the gas composition and post-treatment, the properties of this type of layers can be varied in a number of parameters. The optical, electrical, and chemical properties of TCO layers are the technically most important properties together with the layer thickness. The dielectric function of layers is accessible by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry, which also yields the very important value for the layer thickness at the same time. It would be a significant step forward in quality control to use this non-destructive method also as a fast test for electrical properties. Therefore, we report on the optical properties connected to the production parameters, and also on our preliminary results connecting the optical dielectric function (in the visible and near infrared) to the electrical conductivity of the layers. We discuss the effect of deposition parameters on the optical properties of the layers and present an approach for correlating optical and electrical properties. Further, we discuss the question of accuracy of optical properties gained from model-fit-based optical methods and the use of different parameterised models for the dielectric function to achieve this.

T1 - Optical and Electrical Properties of reactive/nonreactive Magnetron Deposited SnZnOxCoatings Annealed at Various Temperatures N2 - ZnSnOx coatings were deposited from two 2in magnetron targets made of ZnO and SnO2 connected to DC pulsed and RF power supplies, respectively. The pure Ar and reactive gas mixture Ar/O2 were used. DC pulsed power applied on ZnO target was kept constant 50W 50kHz, 20% d.c. and the RF power applied on SnO2 target was set to values from 0W (pure ZnO deposited) up to 150W (up to 8 at.% of Sn in films). The deposited films were investigated by multiple techniques as deposited at RT as well as after annealing at temperatures 200o C and 450o C. The lower annealing temperature is still compatible with many of common polymeric substrates. The amount of Sn in the films is proportional to applied RF power on SnO2 target. But there is also significant influence of the post Deposition annealing on the film compositions. The ratio Zn/Sn is reduced by the annealing process. Therefore the annealing is promoting the migration of Sn toward the surface and Zn to inside. Moreover the films deposited in oxygen rich reactive gas mixture does not reduces the resistivity with added Sn in contrary to films deposited in Ar where the resistivity was reduced by 5 orders of magnitudes. The plasma parameters were investigated and mean energies of dominant species were in DC pulsed only about 3eV and DC + RF powered plasma up to 15eV. The expected higher energetic particles in the RF influenced plasma deliver an additional energy to the growing film. Therefore, we observed systematic differences between refractive indexes in the films deposited with low RF powered SnO2 magnetron at RT and post-annealed at 200 ° and practically no difference between RT and post-annealed film at higher RF power above 50 W. The XRD results proved the transitions from an amorphous to more crystalline structure by post-annealing of the films.

Die Unterschiede betreffen die Art der PrĂŒfmethodik (optisch zerstörungsfrei vs. mechanisch invasiv/zerstörend), die laterale GrĂ¶ĂŸe des Integrationsgebietes der Messung (lokal: nano bis sub-mikro vs. global: mikro bis makro) und die Art der Bestimmung von Messunsicherheitsbudgets (physikalische GrĂ¶ĂŸen: direkt rĂŒckfĂŒhrbar; WerkstoffkenngrĂ¶ĂŸe: genormt; SystemkenngrĂ¶ĂŸe: genormt). Im Rahmen von Industrie 4.0 werden ausgehend der geforderten Spezifikation des beschichteten Produkts (Mittelwert mit Vertrauensbereich oder Mindestwert) durchgehende ToleranzbĂ€nder zur OberflĂ€chenmodifizierung/Beschichtung des Substrats, einhergehend mit Prozessfenstern, die diese ToleranzbĂ€nder garantieren, erforderlich, die zuverlĂ€ssig erfasst werden mĂŒssen.

In microelectronics and optics but also in many fields of energy storage and conversion, thin surface layers or structured surfaces are key components. Optical surface measurements are useful because of their reliability, robustness, and scalability – properties, which are especially desirable in a production environment. However, many of these methods take require considerable effort in data analysis. Spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) is maybe the prime example of this class of methods. To combine the advantages of SE with metrological trueness and traceability, we combine it in a group of other methods, such as electron microscopy, instrumental surface analysis, X-ray diffraction. This presentation will give an overview on the principles of SE, its available quantities and the general properties of this measurement technique. Several examples from current and past projects of BAM-6.7 will show how a measurement community involving ellipsometry can benefit many fields of interest, from polymer science to energy applications. In the context of creating a “measurement landscape”, standardisation and standard compliance play an important role. The efforts of BAM in standardisation and accrediting of ellipsometry will be shown demonstrating the possible impact on quality assurance in different fields of technology.

Der dabei abgebildete Kon-trast wurde typischerweise auf Änderungen im Brechungsindex, Absorptionseffekte oder SchichtdickenĂ€nderungen zurĂŒckgefĂŒhrt. In spĂ€teren Studien wurde festgestellt, dass auch andere Faktoren, wie etwa die KrĂŒmmung der OberflĂ€che oder Kanten von Struktu-ren einen signifikanten Einfluss auf die Messung der ellipsometrischen Paramater haben. Um diese Effekte aus der ellipsometrischen Messung extrahieren zu können, wird auf die Analyse der MĂŒller-Matrix zurĂŒckgegriffen. In dem hier vorliegenden Beitrag wird gezeigt, wie die MĂŒller-Matrix-Imaging Ellipsomet-rie (MM-IE) zur Charakterisierung von OberflĂ€chenstrukturen verwendet werden kann. Dazu werden mikro- und nanoskaliert gekrĂŒmmte OberflĂ€chen zunĂ€chst mit verschiede-nen Referenzmethoden, wie Rasterelektronenmikroskopie (SEM), Lichtmikroskopie (OM), Weißlichtinterferenzmikroskopie (WLIM) und Rasterkraftmikroskopie (AFM) vali-diert erfasst. Der anschließende Vergleich mit den Ergebnissen der MĂŒller-Matrix-Ima-ging-Ellipsometrie ermöglicht eine Korrelation der zugrunde liegenden StrukturphĂ€no-mene mit den ellipsometrischen Daten.

Monitoring problems can be solved by applying a pre-coated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) to the electrolytic process as the shift of the Bragg wavelength is affected by both the temperature of the electrolyte near the substrate and the stress formation in the growing layer. The experimental FBG set-up and the quantitative determination of temperature- and stress-related strain is described for a nickel-iron electrolyte.

These adsorbed layers have shown enormous potential for technological applications. Due to the hard accessibility of these layers, their growth kinetics and molecular dynamics are still not fully understood. Here, the irreversibly adsorbed layers of Poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) and Poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) thin films are revealed by solvent-leaching experiments. The growth kinetics of these layers is investigated as a function of original film thickness and annealing times. The thickness, topography and quality of the adsorbed layer is determined with Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and spectroscopic ellipsometry. Additionally, the molecular mobility of the adsorbed layer is investigated with Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy (BDS). A recently developed nanostructured capacitor (NSC) is employed to measure the adsorbed layers with a free surface layer depending on annealing and solvent-leaching time. The results are quantitatively compared and discussed with respect to recently published work.
