Abstract :
AlN thin films with thickness in nanometer range were prepared by pulsed laser deposition techniques and by reactive sputtering techniques. Investigations by XRD, SEM, AFM, and piezoelectric measurement were performed on the obtained AlN thin films. A comparison between some of the properties of the two types of films is presented.
