Devised an experiment to study the effect of UV radiation on the degradation of the chemical structure of polystyrene thin films over time.Measured and prepared chemical solutions, carefully cut mono-crystalline silicon wafers into squares. Chemically washed and sterilized each sample.Reviewed literature and conducted experiments to determine the proper spin-coating parameters to produce 100-nm thin films.Used spin-coater to produce thin films, used ellipsometer to determine the thickness of each film (target = 100 nm), used UV-ozone cleaner to oxidize the samples, and characterized the chemical structure of the samples with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
