Spectroscopic ellipsometry study of porous silicon-tin oxide nanocomposite layers
The layer-by-layer distribution of components in a porous silicon-tin oxide nanocomposite produced by the following three methods is studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry: chemical vapor deposition, atomic layer deposition, and magnetron sputtering. It is shown that, in the nanocomposites fabricated...

Summary: | The layer-by-layer distribution of components in a porous silicon-tin oxide nanocomposite produced by the following three methods is studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry: chemical vapor deposition, atomic layer deposition, and magnetron sputtering. It is shown that, in the nanocomposites fabricated by these methods, SnO
