Homework Statement
Hi everyone,I hope you are doing well.
I am trying to get a thin film of molecular glasses based carbazole , and during the deposition with physical vapor deposition I notice that the color change from brum to black liquid then we get a yellow thin film .
Please could you help me the understand what's happen ?
Thank you in advance for your interest.
