PREPARATION OF POLY (METHYL METHACRYLATE) THIN FILMS BY SPIN COATING TECHNIQUE FOR OTFT AND WOUND HEALING APPLICATIONS

Abstract

Thin films of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were prepared on cleaned glass slides by using spin coating technique. The prepared films were identified by using FTIR spectrum. Surface morphology of the coated films was studied by using SEM and AFM. Both as grown and annealed films showed smooth and amorphous structure. It also revealed the absence of pits, pin holes and dendritic features in the surface. Both as grown and annealed films showed very low RMS roughness value. The morphology analysis revealed that the prepared film could be used as dielectric layer in thin film transistors and as drug delivery system forwound healing.
