Many aspects in the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of graphene remain unclear such as its behavior near the catalyst grain boundaries. Here we investigate the CVD growth mechanism of graphene across the Cu grain boundaries using unidirectional aligned graphene domains, which simplifies the analysis of both graphene and Cu to a large extent. We found that for a graphene domain grown across the Cu grain boundary, the domain orientation is determined by the Cu grain where the domain nucleation center is located, and the Cu grain boundary will not change the growth behavior for this graphene domain. This growth mechanism is consistent with the Cu-step-attached nucleation and edge-attachment-limited growth mechanism for H-terminated graphene domains and will provide more guidance for the synthesis of high-quality graphene with less domain boundaries.

ABSTRACTTwo low temperature metalorganic chemical vapor deposition growth techniques, the pre-cracking method and the plasma enhanced method, will be discussed. The pre-cracking technique enables one to grow high quality epitaxial Hg1−xCdxTe on CdTe or CdZnTe substrates at temperatures around 200–250°C. HgTe-CdTe superlattices with sharp interfaces have also been fabricated. Furthermore, for the first time, we have demonstrated that ternary Hg1−xCdTe compounds and HgTe-CdTe superlattices can be successfully grown by the plasma enhanced process at temperatures as low as 135 to 150°C. Material properties such as surface morphology, infrared transmission, Hall mobility, and interface sharpness will be presented.

Abstract We performed single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) growth on flexible stainless-steel foils by applying alcohol catalytic chemical vapor deposition using an Ir catalyst with an alumina buffer layer. When the alumina thickness was 90 nm, vertically aligned SWCNTs with a thickness of 4.6 m were grown. In addition, Raman results showed that the diameters of most SWCNTs were distributed below 1.1 nm. Compared with conventional chemical vapor deposition growth where Si wafers are used as substrates, this method is more cost effective and easier to extend for mass production of small-diameter SWCNTs.

We report on the growth of an ordered array of MoS2 nanodots (lateral sizes in the range of ∼100–250 nm) by a thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method directly onto SiO2 substrates at a relatively low substrate temperature (510–560°C). The temperature-dependent growth and evolution of MoS2 nanodots and the local environment of sulfur-induced structural defects and impurities were systematically investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy, micro-Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. At the substrate temperature of 560°C, we observed mostly few-layer MoS2, and at 510°C, multilayer MoS2 growth, as confirmed from the Raman line shape analysis. With reduced substrate temperature, the density of MoS2 nanodots decreases, and layer thickness increases. Raman studies show characteristic Raman modes of the crystalline MoS2 layer, along with two new Raman modes centered at ∼346 and ∼361 cm−1, which are associated with MoO2 and MoO3 phases, respectively. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) studies revealed strong visible PL from MoS2 layers, which is strongly blue-shifted from the bulk MoS2 flakes. The strong visible emission centered at ∼ 658 nm signifies a free excitonic transition in the direct gap of single-layer MoS2. Position-dependent PL profiles show excellent uniformity of the MoS2 layers for samples grown at 540 and 560°C. These results are significant for the low-temperature CVD growth of a few-layer MoS2 dots with direct bandgap photoluminescence on a flexible substrate.
