Development Of Strongly Adherent Triboluminescent Zinc Sulfide Films On Glass Substrates By Ion Plating And Annealing

Crystalline ZnS films were prepared on glass substartes from a high-crystallinity ZnS pellet using an ion-plating method. The crystallinity and friction-induced photon-emitting capability (triboluminescence) of the films were greatly enhanced by postannealing under vacuum. The annealing treatment made the ZnS films strongly adherent to the glass substrate and enhanced their endurance to friction. This greatly enhanced ZnS as a stress/friction sensor for various applications.
