Abstract:
Ferrocene-derivatives have been intensely studied for applications in optoelectronics and sensor development, in bulk or as thin films. In this work, we report on the growth of such thin films by matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation (MAPLE), at low fluences (0.2–0.7 J/cm2), using a Nd:YAG pulsed laser device (4ω / 266 nm, τ = 7 ns, ν = 10 Hz). Spectroscopic-ellipsometry (SE), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques, were used to investigate the structure, morphology and optical properties of the films. Second harmonic generation (SHG) capabilities were evidenced when irradiating the films by a Ti:sapphire pulsed laser (1ω / 800 nm, τ = 60 fs, ν = 80 MHz, P = 700 mW).
