Optimization of the plasmonic properties of titanium nitride films sputtered at room temperature through microstructure and thickness control

Abstract A current approach to depositing highly plasmonic titanium nitride films using the magnetron sputtering technique assumes that the process is performed at temperatures high enough to ensure the atoms have sufficient diffusivities to form dense and highly crystalline films. In this work, we...
