Optical components are typically fabricated by optical substrates coated with various dielectric layers. Nevertheless, the combination of dielectric with metallic (Au, Ag, Cu, Al, Cr etc.) layers lets to create optical coatings with unique properties. We have developed the technology of controllably deposit the metal film from the nanometre scale thickness. Transparent conducting films (TCFs) are very thin coatings (for example, metals, conductive oxides), characterized by good electrical conductivity and optical transparency. These coatings are widely used in various electronic devices such as liquid crystal displays, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), touch screens, or photovoltaic cells. Also, these coatings can be applied in laser systems, smart windows, or other photonic technologies. Such coatings are usually used as transparent electrodes, capacitive sensors, and electrochromic or electrochemical layers that can change their transparency depending on voltage or change their electrical conductivity depending on environmental changes. The particular PhD theses will be related to the investigation and optimization of the optical elements manufacturing process, growth of coatings, analysis of material properties.
