Solution

Step 1: Explanation:

Thin-film: A coating (such as a semiconductor) that is deposited in a layer that is one atom or one molecule thick is an extremely thin layer of a substance on a supporting material.

Step 2: Thin film:

  1. Depending on the qualities, thin films come in a variety of thicknesses.
  2. Atomically thin films are created by depositing atoms and molecules; in contrast, particle deposition results in thicker thin films.
  3. The total thickness of the thin film will range from a fraction of nanometers at its thinnest point and a few microns at its thickest.
