Significant reduction in thermal expansion of a low-carbon steel sheet by depositing a Fe–Ni alloy thin film

Extract
A 3-μm-thick Fe–Ni alloy thin film was deposited on a 0.2-mm-thick low-carbon steel substrate by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering, and the properties of the film were investigated. The film exhibits a columnar growth structure and a fiber texture with the relationship of (110)film//(111)substrate. A thermal cycle test showed good adhesion between the film and the substrate. Most importantly, the Fe–Ni alloy deposition results in a significant reduction in thermal expansion of the whole specimen. These results suggest that a properly deposited Fe–Ni alloy film could be applied to a low-carbon steel sheet to significantly reduce its thermal expansion. Such reduced thermal expansion would enhance the image resolution of a shadow mask made of a low-carbon steel sheet.
