Cerium oxide thin films were deposited on quartz substrates using pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction was used to characterize the structural properties of the films deposited at different substrate temperatures. The film deposited at 303K was amorphous, while the film deposited at 523K was quasi-crystalline. Increasing the substrate temperature to 923K resulted in a polycrystalline film. Optical properties were studied using UV-visible spectroscopy, which showed the films were highly transparent in the visible region with low reflectance in ultraviolet. Band gap was found to decrease with increasing film thickness.

Abstract
In this work, nanostructured TiO2 thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique on glass substrates. TiO2 thin films then were annealed at 400-600 °C in air for a period of 2 hours. Effect of annealing on the structural and morphological were studied. Many growth parameters have been considered to specify the optimum conditions, namely substrate temperature (300 °C), oxygen pressure (10-2 Torr), laser fluence energy density (0.4 J/cm2), using double frequency Q-switching Nd:YAG laser beam (wavelength 532nm), repetition rate (1-6 Hz) and the pulse duration of 10 ns. The results of the X-ray test show that all nanostructures tetragonal are polycrystalline. These results show that grain size increase from 19.5 nm to 29.5 with the increase of annealing temperature. The XRD results also reveal that the deposited thin film, annealed at 400 °C of TiO2 have anatase phase. Thin films annealed at 500 °C and 600 °C have mixed anatase and rutile phases. Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM) values of the (101) peaks of these films decrease from 0.450° to 0.301° with the increase of annealing temperature. Surface morphology of the thin films have been studied by using atomic force microscopes (AFM). AFM measurements confirmed that the films have good crystalline and homogeneous surface. The Root Mean Square (RMS) value of thin films surface roughness are increased with the increase of annealing temperature.

Abstract
Nanostructured Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) thin films were prepared by pulsed
laser deposition (PLD) on the glass substrates. The effects of different annealing
temperature (400, 500 and 600 °C) towards the some physical properties such as
structural, morphological and optical have been studied. From X-ray diffraction
result, the crystallinity of TiO2 thin films improved at higher annealing
temperature. It also could be observed that the rutile phase start to exist at
annealing temperatures of 500 °C and 600 °C. The Full Width at Half
Maximum (FWHM) of the (101) peaks of these films decreases from 0.450° to
0.301° with increasing of annealing temperature. AFM measurements confirmed
that the films grown by this technique have good crystalline and homogeneous
surface. The Root Mean Square (RMS) value of thin films surface roughness
increased with increasing of the annealing temperature. From UV-VIS
spectrophotometer measurements, the optical transmission results shows that the transmission over than ~65% in the near-infrared region which decrease with the increasing of annealing temperatures. The allowed indirect optical band gap of the films was estimated to be in the range from 3.49 to 3.1 eV. The allowed direct band gap was found to decrease from 3.74 eV to 3.55 eV with the increase of annealing temperature. The refractive index of the films was found from 2.27 -2.98 at 550nm. The extinction coefficient, real and imaginary parts of the dielectric constant increase with annealing temperature.

The gross structure of the annealed films have been examined by X- ray diffraction (XRD) technique using powder X- ray diffractometer which reveals the enhancement of crystallinity with increase in the deposition temperature. Surface morphology of the synthesized ZnO thin films have been analyzed by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM) which reveals average particle size of as synthesize ZnO thin films has been found to be 79 nm. The band gap as deposited ZnO have been examined by UV-Vis spectroscopy carried out in absorption mode by Double Beam UV- VIS Spectrophotometer with radiations in the range of 훌= 190 nm to 1100 nm which is in the range of 3.03 eV to 3.16 eV.
Effect of Bi Content on Optical Properties of Se-Sb-Bi Chalcogenide Amorphous...ijsrd.com
Se90-xSb10Bix (x=0, 2, 4, 6, 8 & 10) chalcogenide glasses were prepared by well-established melt quenching technique. The glassy nature was verified by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Thin films of these samples were deposited on glass substrate using thermal evaporation technique at room temperature. The transmission spectra of thin films have been taken using UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer (Varian Cary 500) in the wavelength range 200 nm to 1500 nm. The refractive index and film thickness are calculated by using envelope method proposed by Swanepoel. The results indicate that n increases with the increasing Bi content which is related to the increased polarizability of the larger Bi atomic radius 1.46 Å compared with the Se atomic radius 1.16 Å. The value of absorption coefficient (α) and hence extinction coefficient (k) has been determined from transmission spectra. Optical band gap (Eg) is estimated using Tauc's extrapolation and is found to decrease from 1.46eV to 1.24 eV with the Bi addition. This behavior of optical band gap is interpreted in terms of electronegativity difference of the atoms involved and cohesive energy of the system. The variation of optical band gap with Bi content has been studied. This study is aiming to examine such structures if they are employed as photonic devices such as photo-detectors, LED's and optical switches.
Sputtering yield and nanopattern formation study of BNSiO2 (Borosil) at eleva...Dr. Basanta Kumar Parida
Lower sputtering yield of the discharge wall material is a crucial parameter for the performance of Hall Effect Thruster (HET) [1, 2]. In this article, we report the sputtering yield of HET wall
material BNSiO2 (borosil) at elevated temperature ~600 °C using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). We observe a linear increase in the sputtering yield with temperature and it remains stable during long duration experiments using Xe ions. Two different crystallographic orientations of borosil give a
slight variation in the yield. The higher yields for higher operating temperatures is proposed to be due to the thermal spike nature. Microscopic surface morphology shows only different grains of BNSiO2, however high resolution nanoscopic view reveals the formation of nanoripple like structures over different grains [3]. The periodicity of such features increases with ion dose (sputtering time) and temperature in the range of 70-190 nm. Local curvature dependent erosion plays crucial role in such pattern formation [4].

An Investigation of SILAR Grown Cobalt Selenide Thin Films IIJSRJournal
Nowadays, several deposition techniques have been used to produce thin film materials. The obtained films were characterized by using different tools. These semiconductor materials could be employed in solar cell, laser devices and opto-electronic devices. The main objective of this work is to produce cobalt selenide thin films through successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method. Advantages of this method include simple procedures, inexpensive equipment, it does not need expensive vacuum system and high quality substrate. During the deposition process, the films were deposited onto soda lime glass under various anionic bath immersion times. The properties of the films were studied for the first time via field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and UV-visible spectrophotometer. Based on the FESEM analysis, uniform morphology could be observed for the sample produced for 30 seconds (anionic immersion time). The band gap was about 2.6 eV and the optical transmission increased in the visible region could be detected for these samples.

Preparation and Properties of Nanocrystalline Zinc Oxide Thin Filmsijtsrd
Metal oxide is highly important material which possesses many unique optical and electrical properties for applications in many areas such as Solar cells, Gas sensors and so on. With the development of research and applications of Metal oxide thin films, research results are verified that the morphology of Metal oxide thin films are plays an important role in applications of these films. Variety of morphologies, complex structure has been developed by physical or chemical methods. However the work on controlled growth of these films is still in developing state. Therefore in present work we deposited ZnS and ZnO metal oxides thin films on different substrates by Chemical Bath Deposition Technique. Structural, Surface Morphology and Optical properties of as deposited films were investigated by XRD, SEM, and UV VIS Spectrophotometer. The band gap is also calculated from the equation relating absorption co efficient to wavelength. The band gap indicates the film is transmitting within the visible range and the band gaps changes because of the grain size of the films. We also observed that, the change in preparative parameters affects the deposition rate of thin films. From the observation, it is clear that the growth rate increases as the deposition temperature, increases. S. S.

Influence of Thickness on Electrical and Structural Properties of Zinc Oxide ...paperpublications3
Abstract: Zinc Oxide (ZnO) thin films were prepared on corning (7059) glass substrates at a thickness of 75.5 and 130.5nm by RF sputtering technique. The deposition was carried out at room temperature after which the samples were annealed in open air at 1500C. The electrical and structural properties of these films were studied. The electrical properties of the films were monitored by four-point probe method while the structural properties were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that the electrical resistance of the films decreases with increase in the thickness of the films. The XRD analysis of the films showed that the films have a peak located at 〖34.31^0-34.35〗^0with hkl (002). Other parameters calculated include the stress ( ) and the grain size (D).

Characterization Studies of CdS Nanocrystalline Film Deposited on Teflon Subs...IJLT EMAS
In this article, different substrates for deposition of
CdS material have been discussed. Till date glass, mica, quartz,
ceramic, etc. are commonly employed substrates in thin film
growth. In the present work, CdS is deposited on Teflon
substrate by chemical bath deposition (CBD) method. Also the
films were deposited on different substrates like glass, copper
and zinc and compared with those prepared on Teflon substrate.
The films prepared on Teflon substrate were uniform, stable and
also showed good radiating property. These films were further
characterized by UV-VIS absorption spectral studies, SEM and
EDS studies.
Un doped and doped with Al ZnS thin Films have been fabricated by vacuum evaporation
technique under the vacuum of 10-5 Torr on glass substrate at room temperature and with different
ratio of Al concentration of thickness (0.8µm). The optical properties were revealed by UV-Visible
transmittance spectra and the band gap energy was determined. Transmission spectra indicate a high
transmission coefficient (¨95%). The results showed that films have direct optical transition, and the
values of energy gap were found to decrease with doping concentrations. Also the optical constants
such as absorption coefficient, refractive index, extinction coefficient and dielectric constant have
been calculated. The effect of doping concentration on the electrical properties has been studied
Morphological and Optical Study of Sol-Gel SpinCoated Nanostructured CdSThin ...iosrjce
Nanostructured CdS thin films of different thicknesses were deposited on a cleaned glass substrate
using sol-gel spin coating technique. CdS thin films were prepared using cadmium acetate as cadmium source
and thiourea as sulfur source. The Morphological, chemical composition, and optical properties of the spin- coated
CdS thin film were studied using field emission- scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Energy dispersive X –ray
(EDX) spectroscopy, and a UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer.The morphological results revealed that the films consist
of agglomerated spherical CdS nanoparticles with diameter < 20 nm, which distributed uniformly on the substrate
surface.The films show high transmittance > 90% and very strong absorption edge at 295 nm.The absorption edge
shifts towards longer wavelength as the film thickness increased.

Characterization and DC Conductivity of Novel CuO doped Polyvinyl Alcohol (PV...IJERA Editor
DC conductivity of PVA-CuO nano-composite films have been studied in the present work. The composites were prepared by solution-casting technique. The prepared PVA-CuO composites have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDXS); which confirmed the presence of CuO in polyvinyl alcohol and the formation of the composite. DC conductivity studies show thermally activated behavior of all the composites. The conductivity was found to increase with the increase in temperature indicating the semiconducting behavior of all the compositions. The activation energy increases as the content of CuO nanoparticles increases from 1 to 4 in wt% in the PVA- CuO nano-composites. Maximum conductivity was observed in 4 wt% of CuO in polyvinyl alcohol.
Thin films of cadmium sulphide have been
successfully deposited by chemical bath deposition (CBD)
technique using a mixed aqueous solution of cadmium
sulphate, thiourea, and triethylamine. The films were
characterized using a variety of techniques. Powder X-ray
diffraction analysis shows that the as-deposited thin film has
the hexagonal (wurtzite) structure. Scanning electron
microscope (SEM) micrographs show the film surface consists
of clusters with a globular surface morphology. Energy
dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDAX) analysis confirmed the
film to be consistent with the formation of cadmium sulphide
on silica glass slide. The band gap, determined from optical
absorption spectroscopy, was 2.42 eV which is consistent with
other published results.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
