Abstract

Four Ge~2~Sb~2~Te~5~ thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) at 58, 100, 140, and 190 mJ/pulse laser energy, respectively. The influence of laser energy on the crystallization of Ge~2~Sb~2~Te~5~ was investigated. The result shows that laser energy has evident effect on the crystallization of Ge~2~Sb~2~Te~5~, including crystallization temperature, incubation time, Avrami coefficient, and grain size. The sample prepared at 140 mJ/pulse laser energy has the lowest crystallization temperature, the shortest incubation time, the largest Avrami coefficient, and the maximum mean grain size. The result of X‐ray diffraction indicates that there are impurity‐phase peaks in the pattern of the sample prepared at 190 mJ/pulse laser energy. A possible reason was given for these phenomenons.

## Abstract Amorphous thin films of SnSe~2~ and Ge~2~Sb~2~Te~5~ doped by different amount of silver (0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1 Ag atoms per formula unit) have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) starting from solid polycrystalline targets. The films were investigated by X‐ray diffraction (XRD)

A polycrystalline CuAlO 2 single-phase target was fabricated by the conventional solid-state reaction route using Cu 2 O and Al 2 O 3 . Thin films of CuAlO 2 were deposited by a pulsed laser deposition process on sapphire substrates at different temperatures. Then, post-annealing was followed at dif
