Abstract

Opaque Au and Au - Cr films were produced by rf triode sputtering onto a glass substrate at 150 degree C. Cosputtering of Au and Cr films has extended the solubility limits of Cr in Au from 19 at. % Cr to 48 at. % Cr. Electron microscopy showed polycrystallinity in the entire solubility range and electron microprobe analysis confirmed compositional uniformity of films. Reflectance and transmittance data for very thin Au and Au - Cr films are used to calculate the figures of merit for the heat mirror type solar - thermal energy collector design.
