ABSTRACTPolycrystalline SiC nanowires and composite Si nanowire-SiC nanograin structures have been synthesized using a combined catalytic chemical vapor deposition and carburization method. Si nanowires are grown at low temperature (550-650 C) and subsequently carburized at 1100-1200 C in a methane/hydrogen or propane/hydrogen environment. Thermochemical calculations showed that the Si carburization is thermodynamically favorable over a wide tempareture range, whereas our studies showed that the Si nanowire carburization is kinetically limited below ∼1100 °C. Partially carburized nanowires contained distinct SiC nanosized grains on the Si nanowire surface, whereas fully carburized nanowires were polycrystalline 3C SiC with grain sizes of ∼ 50-100 nm.

The Core

The effect of Ge nanoparticle (Ge NP) incorporation in the germanosilicate glass core of the photonic crystal fiber (PCF) on supercontinuum generation (SCG) was investigated. The Ge NP-doped germanosilicate glass core PCF was fabricated by using the modified chemical vapor deposition (MCVD) and the stack-and-draw processes. The average diameter of Ge NPs embedded in the core of the PCF was 4.2 nm. The absorption peaks at 480 nm and 515 nm and the band from 600 to 800 nm were attributed to the Ge NPs in the core of the PCF. SCG of the 490 nm bandwidth (598 nm~1088 nm) with a conversion efficiency of 31% was obtained by pumping at 800 nm with the Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser of 160 mW with 35 fs pulse at 1 kHz repetition rate, resulting from the enhanced optical nonlinearity from Ge NPs as well as the PCF structure of the fiber.

Ge-rich Ge–Sb–Te compounds are attractive materials for future phase change memories due to their greater crystallization temperature as it provides a wide range of applications. Herein, we report the self-assembled Ge-rich Ge–Sb–Te/Sb2Te3 core-shell nanowires grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The core Ge-rich Ge–Sb–Te nanowires were self-assembled through the vapor–liquid–solid mechanism, catalyzed by Au nanoparticles on Si (100) and SiO2/Si substrates; conformal overgrowth of the Sb2Te3 shell was subsequently performed at room temperature to realize the core-shell heterostructures. Both Ge-rich Ge–Sb–Te core and Ge-rich Ge–Sb–Te/Sb2Te3 core-shell nanowires were extensively characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman microspectroscopy, and electron energy loss spectroscopy to analyze the surface morphology, crystalline structure, vibrational properties, and elemental composition.

Kinetics Of

Patterning of metals is a key element in the fabrication of integrated microelectronics. For circuit repair and engineering changes constructive lithography, writing techniques, based on electron, ion or photon beam-induced decomposition of precursor molecule and its deposition on top of a structure have gained wide acceptance Recently, scanning probe techniques have been used for line drawing and wire growth of W on a silicon substrate for quantum effect devices. The kinetics of electron beam induced W deposition from WF6 gas has been studied by adsorbing the gas on SiO2 surface and measuring the growth in a TEM for various exposure times. Our environmental cell allows us to control not only electron exposure time but also the gas pressure flow and the temperature. We have studied the growth kinetics of Au Chemical vapor deposition (CVD), in situ, at different temperatures with/without the electron beam on highly clean Si surfaces in an environmental cell fitted inside a TEM column.

Silicon Thin Film

For heteroepitaxial systems, such as silicon on sapphire (SOS), microtwins occur in significant numbers and are thought to contribute to strain relief in the silicon thin film. The size of this contribution can be assessed from TEM measurements, of the differential volume fraction of microtwins, dV/dν (the derivative of the microtwin volume V with respect to the film volume ν), for SOS grown by both chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).In a (001) silicon thin film subjected to compressive stress along the [100] axis , this stress can be relieved by four twinning systems: a/6[211]/( lll), a/6(21l]/(l1l), a/6[21l] /( l1l), and a/6(2ll)/(1ll).3 For the a/6[211]/(1ll) system, the glide of a single a/6[2ll] twinning partial dislocation draws the two halves of the crystal, separated by the microtwin, closer together by a/3.
