Abstract

Nanostructured carbon films with oriented graphitic planes can be deposited by applying energetic carbon bombardment. The present work shows the possibility of structuring graphitic planes perpendicular to the substrate in following two distinct ways: (i) applying sufficiently large carbon energies for deposition at room temperature (E>10 keV), (ii) utilizing much lower energies for deposition at elevated substrate temperatures (T>200 deg. C). High resolution transmission electron microscopy is used to probe the graphitic planes. The alignment achieved at elevated temperatures does not depend on the deposition angle. The data provides insight into the mechanisms leading to the growth of oriented graphitic planes under different conditions.

Carbon films of amorphous and oriented graphitic structure from fullerene ion beam deposition

Journal Article Gaber, H; Busmann, H; Hiss, R; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry; (United States)

Energetic fullerene deposition has been performed with an intense, highly ionized beam in the kiloelectron-volt energy range to form carbon thin films. The deposited material is amorphic and essentially free of hydrogen that is bonded to carbon. The films show graphitic nanocrystallites embedded in amorphous carbon which are preferentially oriented with the c-axis parallel to the substrate surface. With increasing substrate temperature, the size of the crystallites increases together with a decrease in the percentage of sp[sup 3]-bonded carbon. There is evidence that the primary deposition product is mainly sp[sup 3]-bonded carbon which then relaxes to form the oriented, graphiticmore »« less

Control of in-plane and out-of-plane texture in shear mode piezoelectric ZnO films by ion-beam irradiation

Journal Article Yanagitani, Takahiko; Kiuchi, Masato - Journal of Applied Physics

ZnO polycrystalline films have a strong tendency to grow their c-axis perpendicular to the film surface, even on an amorphous substrate. However, unusual (1010) preferred orientations in which the c-axis lies in the substrate plane are often observed when the film is exposed to ion irradiation during its growth. To investigate the effect of ion irradiation on the (1010) preferred orientation, ZnO films were fabricated using a 0-1 keV oxygen ion-beam-assisted electron-beam evaporation of zinc. The results clearly indicated that the tendency of (1010) preferred orientation was enhanced with increasing ion energy and amount of ion irradiation. This demonstrated thatmore »« less

Controlling Domain Orientations in Thin Films of AB and ABA Block Copolymers

Journal Article Vu, Thai; Mahadevapuram, Nikhila; Perera, Ginusha; ... - Macromolecules

Domain orientations in thin films of lamellar copolymers are evaluated as a function of copolymer architecture, film thickness, and processing conditions. Two copolymer architectures are considered: An AB diblock of poly(styrene-b-methyl methacrylate) and an ABA triblock of poly(methyl methacrylate-b-styrene-b-methyl methacrylate). All films are cast on substrates that are energetically neutral with respect to the copolymer constituents. Film structures are evaluated with optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering. For AB diblock copolymers, the domain orientations are very sensitive to film thickness, annealing temperature, and imperfections in the 'neutral' substrate coating: Diblock domains are oriented perpendicular to themore »« less

In-situ study of the carbon gasification reaction of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite promoted by cobalt oxides and the novel nanostructures appeared after reaction

Journal Article Morales, C.; Díaz-Fernández, D.; Prieto, P.; ... - Carbon

Cobalt interaction and its effects on carbon-based systems at the nanoscale have recently attracted much attention in different fields, such as catalysis of carbon nanotubes or graphene and graphite nano-patterning taking advantage of its ferromagnetic behavior. Experiments performed in our laboratories show how the re-oxidation process of two equivalent monolayers of CoO deposited on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite at 400 °C leads to the formation of nanochannels at lower temperature than using other methods. Here we present the in-situ characterization of the carbon gasification reaction that drives this process by means of near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy performed atmore »« less

Fiber textures of titanium nitride and hafnium nitride thin films deposited by off-normal incidence magnetron sputtering

Journal Article Deniz, D; Harper, J - Journal of Applied Physics

We studied the development of crystallographic texture in titanium nitride (TiN) and hafnium nitride (HfN) films deposited by off-normal incidence reactive magnetron sputtering at room temperature. Texture measurements were performed by x-ray pole figure analysis of the (111) and (200) diffraction peaks. For a deposition angle of 40 deg. from substrate normal, we obtained TiN biaxial textures for a range of deposition conditions using radio frequency (rf) sputtering. Typically, we find that the <111> orientation is close to the substrate normal and the <100> orientation is close to the direction of the deposition source, showing substantial in-plane alignment.
