Dielectric layers with gradual properties

This work presents results from a study of thin dielectric layers organized in a structure that behaves as an unified layer with gradual properties. A better understanding of dielectric charging phenomena is aimed at in order to control the conductive properties of the multi-layer system. We first characterize each mono-layer deposited singly on a substrate before the characterization of our multi-layer system. The presented results are for the material and electrical properties of the layers. They are obtained from different diagnostic methods. It was found that such a concept allows modulation of the conductive properties of dielectric materials.
