We present in this paper a graphical study of regions of thermally deposited ZnS thin films on glass by atomic force microscope (AFM). This study consists of volume parameters and functional parameters of these films surfaces for the object of investigating the possibility to retain fluids by these films. For doing so, we registered Abbott-Firestone curves that are based on height distribution for these films, we measured volume and functional parameters in the whole pores. Using the thresholding operator we followed parameters distribution in depth of the surface. At the end we compared these parameters by the results of another study based on slice selection at different levels.

In this paper we present a study of ZnS thin films thermally deposited on glass substrates, with different optical thicknesses. On topography micrographs and feature parameters obtained by Atomic Force Microscope, we pursued the islands formation and growing in ZnS thin films even on the same optical thickness of the film. For doing so, we analyzed the micrographs surface, using Watershed Segmentation and Wolf pruning that allow the detection of significant features on surfaces, Grain sorting operator and Parameter Distribution Study.
The oil reservoirs exploitation processes are one of very important steps of petroleum industry. The rentability of investor reservoir is related to correct planning and accurate understanding of rock properties and liquids flow in porous media. T he complexity of porous media contains hydrocarbon materials, with phases changes related to thermo-physiochemical phenomena, make the classical methods used to study the reservoir recovery are inaccurate and insufficient to predict the performance and behavior of reservoir. Recently, simulation and modeling are used to decrease the risks in the decision of the optimal recovery method, and achieve the best possible rentability. This method provides predictive capacity help us to better understanding of reservoir. By the suitable input data, we can solve the calibrated mathematical model analytically or numerically. We present in this research the formulation of mathematical model of isotropic-one dimension reservoir with single phase fluid flow. The numerical solution, the application of this model, and the mechanism of pressure diffusivity along productive formation, will be presented to simulate a reservoir with injection and production wells.
In the present paper, we discuss the influence of point defects on electrical and optical characteristics of ZnO thin films grown by the atomic layer deposition (ALD) method on glass and silicon substrates at low temperature (100°C). Room temperatu re photoluminescence (RT PL) spectra, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS), and Hall Effect measurements were made for as-grown ZnO layers. The annealing process was performed in air as well as in N2 atmosphere at 400°C for half an hour. The long annealing resulted in a larger reduction in electron concentration. Simultaneously, an evident increase in carrier's mobility was observed, which may suggest that annealing resulted in a decreased number of native defects in the ZnO layers. Also, it was observed that hydrogen atoms in ZnO samples did not dominate their electrical properties with the increase of electrons concentration.
Mn doped tin oxide transparent conducting thin films were deposited at a substrate temperature of 450°C by spray pyrolysis method. Structural properties of the films were investigated as a function of various Mn-doping levels (0, 1, 3, 5, 7 wt%) w hile all other deposition parameters such as substrate temperature, spray rate, carrier gas pressure and distance between spray nozzle to substrate were kept constant.
