Ag Out-surface Diffusion In Crystalline SiC With An Effective SiO2 Diffusion Barrier

Journal Article Xue, H. ; Xiao, Haiyan Y. ; Zhu, Zihua ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials, 464:294-298

For applications of tristructural isotropic (TRISO) fuel particles in high temperature reactors, release of radioactive Ag isotope (110mAg) through the SiC coating layer is a safety concern. To understand the diffusion mechanism, Ag ion implantations near the surface and in the bulk were performed by utilizing different ion energies and energy-degrader foils. High temperature annealing was carried out on the as-irradiated samples to study the possible out-surface diffusion. Before and after annealing, Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) measurements were employed to obtain the elemental profiles of the implanted samples. The results suggest little migration ofmore »« less

Helical Crystalline SiC/SiO2 Core-Shell Nanowires

Journal Article Zhang, Hai-Feng ; Wang, Chongmin ; Wang, Lai-Sheng - Nano Letters

Helical crystalline silicon carbide nanowires covered with a silicon oxide sheath (SiC/SiO2) have been synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition technique. The SiC core typically has diameters of 10-40 nm with a helical periodicity of 40-80 nm and is covered by a uniform layer of 30-60 nm thick amorphous SiO2. A screw-dislocation-driven growth process is proposed for the formation of this novel structure based on detailed structural characterizations. The helical nanostructures may find applications as building blocks in nanomechanical or nanoelectronic devices. The screw-dislocation-induced growth mechanism suggests that similar helical nanostructures of a wide range of materials may be synthesized.

Effects of type of reactor, crystallinity of SiC, and NF{sub 3} gas pressure on etching rate and smoothness of SiC surface using NF{sub 3} gas plasma

Journal Article Tasaka, A ; Yamada, H ; Nonoyama, T ; ... - Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology. A, International Journal Devoted to Vacuum, Surfaces, and Films

Polycrystalline {beta}-SiC and single-crystalline 4H-SiC surfaces were etched by reactive ion etching (RIE) using NF{sub 3} gas plasma. A smooth surface was obtained on the polycrystalline SiC after RIE at NF{sub 3} gas pressures of 2 and 10 Pa for 10 min, and neither spikes nor pillars were formed on it. On the other hand, some pillars were formed on the single-crystalline SiC surface by RIE at NF{sub 3} gas pressures of 2 and 10 Pa. Though the absence of carbon-rich regions and SiO{sub x} on the outermost surface before etching was confirmed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman analysis,more »« less

Effect of environment on radiation-induced out diffusion of deuterons and protons from crystalline LiNbO sub 3 at low temperatures

Journal Article Gonzalez, R ; Hodgson, E R ; Ballesteros, C ; ... - Physical Review Letters; (United States)

Hydrogenic species (protons and deuterons) are removed efficiently from single crystals of LiNbO{sub 3} during electron irradiation in vacuum near room temperature. Irradiation in air produces no significant change in the concentration of the hydrogenic species.
