It was found, however, that devices having 1,3,4,-oxadiazole derivatives, or other low molecular weight molecules, as electron transporters in the form of a vacuum evaporated thin film, have a short lifetime, a feature probably associated with recrystallisation or aggregation phenomena [107]. 

There are essentially three different situations that need to be considered under this title adhesion of pressure-sensitive tapes to metal surfaces, adhesion of vacuum-evaporated thin films of metal on polymer surfaces and the adhesion of ultra-small particles. The first two of these will be considered here, bnt the third one is dealt with quite separately under the heading Electrical Adhesion. 

Barbarella et al. also synthesized a series of bis(dimethyl-rerf-butylsilyl)oligothiophenes [70]. Vacuum-evaporated thin films of the quinquethiophene 11 afforded pfet of 3 x 10 " cm V s and...

Allmand et al. (1970), among others, have vacuum-evaporated thin films of highly refractive transparent substances, e.g., Ti02 or ZnS, onto a polished, etched metal surface. As the film builds up to different thicknesses over different solid phases, each film is differentiated by interference colors.
