Download or read book Synthesis of One Dimensional SiC Nanostructures from a Glassy Buckypaper written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simple and scalable synthetic strategy was developed for the fabrication of one-dimensional SiC nanostructures - nanorods and nanowires. Thin sheets of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were prepared by vacuum filtration and were washed repeatedly with sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) solution. The resulting "glassy buckypaper" was heated at 1300 - 1500 °C under Ar/H2 to allow a solid state reaction between C and Si precursors to form a variety of SiC nanostructures. The morphology and crystal structures of SiC nanorods and nanowires were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), energy dispersive xray spectroscopy (EDX), electron diffraction (ED) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Furthermore, electrical conductance measurements were performed on SiC nanorods, demonstrating their potential applications in high-temperature sensors and control systems.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, the growth and characterization of one-dimensional (10) nanostructures taanowires, nanorods, nanotubes) of wide-band-gap semiconductors have been extensively studied .. to their potential for applications in nanoelectronics, sensors, batteries, and field emission élisplays (FEDs). The nanowire (NW) approach allows for a coaxial gate-dielectric channel pmetry that is ideal for further downscaling and electrostatic control. Among the wide band-gap materials, 3C-SiC exhibits high values of thermal conductivity, breakdown electric field, electron drift velocity, Young's modulus and hardness as well as excellent chemical and physical stability. Therefore, 3C-SiC semiconductor nanowires, grown either with top-down or bottom-up techniques, Me expected to generate a new family of high-performance nanowire devices as an add-on to mainstream Si technology. This thesis is divided into three main parts. ln the first chapter, an introduction to nanowire growth, properties and devices is presented. Our theoretical work follows in chapter two, where a study of 3C-SiC nanowire-based FETs (NWFETs) operating either in ballistic or in dissipative transport regime is indicated. More precisely, we introduce numerical simulations of gate-all-around (GAA) 3C-SiC and Si NWFETs using a full quantum self-consistent Poisson¬SchrOdinger algorithm within the non-equilibrium Green's functions (NEGF) formalism. A direct comparison between Si and 3C-SiC device performances sheds some light on the different transport properties of the two materials. ln the third and forth chapter, the nanowire growth, the fabrication and the electrical characterization of 3C-SiC NWFETs is presented. The last part of the thesis is devoted to the simulation of the electrical behaviour of the experimental NWFETs (both 3C-SiC and Si NWFETs) by using the Silvaco simulation tool. The accurate fitting of the experimental data, allows us to calculate the nanowire carrier concentration and mobility, and estimate the nanowireldielectric interface quality as well as to study the effect of carrier concentration lowering, Schottky barriers height at contacts and the interface quality on the device's performance.
