Floating phenomenon of layered basic zinc acetate structures on patterned silicon substrates: Aging and concentration effects

The formation of floating films by spin coating process was observed on the pillars of patterned substrates. The floating phenomenon was controlled by an aging and a concentration of solutions. In the floating films, layered basic zinc acetate (LBZA) was detected by XRD and played a role as a framew...

Description
Summary:The formation of floating films by spin coating process was observed on the pillars of patterned substrates. The floating phenomenon was controlled by an aging and a concentration of solutions. In the floating films, layered basic zinc acetate (LBZA) was detected by XRD and played a role as a framework to float the film. The polymerization of LBZA, floating phenomena of the structures, and their relations were investigated based on SEM and XRD results. ► Floating LBZA films were fabricated on patterned silicon substrates. ► Floating phenomena were controlled by an aging and a concentration of solutions. ► Interlamellar spacing of LBZA was expanded by long term aging process.
