Book Plasma Processing of Nanomaterials

Download or read book Plasma Processing of Nanomaterials written by R. Mohan Sankaran and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-12-19 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are at a critical evolutionary juncture in the research and development of low-temperature plasmas, which have become essential to synthesizing and processing vital nanoscale materials. More and more industries are increasingly dependent on plasma technology to develop integrated small-scale devices, but physical limits to growth, and other challenges, threaten progress. Plasma Processing of Nanomaterials is an in-depth guide to the art and science of plasma-based chemical processes used to synthesize, process, and modify various classes of nanoscale materials such as nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and semiconductor nanowires. Plasma technology enables a wide range of academic and industrial applications in fields including electronics, textiles, automotives, aerospace, and biomedical. A prime example is the semiconductor industry, in which engineers revolutionized microelectronics by using plasmas to deposit and etch thin films and fabricate integrated circuits. An overview of progress and future potential in plasma processing, this reference illustrates key experimental and theoretical aspects by presenting practical examples of: Nanoscale etching/deposition of thin films Catalytic growth of carbon nanotubes and semiconductor nanowires Silicon nanoparticle synthesis Functionalization of carbon nanotubes Self-organized nanostructures Significant advances are expected in nanoelectronics, photovoltaics, and other emerging fields as plasma technology is further optimized to improve the implementation of nanomaterials with well-defined size, shape, and composition. Moving away from the usual focus on wet techniques embraced in chemistry and physics, the author sheds light on pivotal breakthroughs being made by the smaller plasma community. Written for a diverse audience working in fields ranging from nanoelectronics and energy sensors to catalysis and nanomedicine, this resource will help readers improve development and application of nanomaterials in their own work. About the Author: R. Mohan Sankaran received the American Vacuum Society’s 2011 Peter Mark Memorial Award for his outstanding contributions to tandem plasma synthesis.

Book On Delveloping Novel Energy related Nanostructured Matericals by Atomic Layer Depositon

Download or read book On Delveloping Novel Energy related Nanostructured Matericals by Atomic Layer Depositon written by Xiangbo Meng and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents the fabrication of a series of novel nanostructured materials using atomic layer deposition (ALD). In contrast to traditional methods including chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), and solution-based processes, ALD benefits the synthesis processes of nanostructures with many unrivalled advantages such as atomic-scale control, low temperature, excellent uniformity and conformality. Depending on the employed precursors, substrates, and temperatures, the ALD processes exhibited different characteristics. In particular, ALD has capabilities in fine-tuning compositions and structural phases. In return, the synthesis and the resultant nanostructured materials show many novelties This thesis covers ALD processes of four different metal oxides including iron oxide, tin oxide, titanium oxide, and lithium titanium oxide. Four different substrates were used in the aforementioned ALD processes, i.e., undoped carbon nanotubes (CNTs), nitrogen doped CNTs (N-CNTs), porous templates of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), and graphene nanosheets (GNS). In practice, owing to their distinguished properties and structural characters, the substrates contributed to various novel nanostructures including nanotubes, coaxial core-shell nanotubes, and three-dimensional (3D) architectures. In addition, the surface chemistry of the substrates and their interactions with ALD precursors also were considered. The ALD process of iron oxide (ALD-Fe2O3) was the first one studied and it was fulfilled on both undoped CNTs and N-CNTs by using ferrocene and oxygen as precursors. It was found that N-CNTs are better than undoped CNTs for the ALD-Fe2O3, for they provide reactive sites directly due to their inherent properties. In contrast, undoped CNTs need pretreatment via covalent acid oxidation or non-covalent modification to create reactive sites before the ALD-Fe2O3 could proceed on their surface. This work resulted in different CNT-Fe2O3 core-shell structures with controlled growth of crystalline -Fe2O3 Another metal oxide, tin dioxide (SnO2) was performed using tin chloride (SnCl4) and water as ALD precursors. It was synthesized into different nanostructures based on NCNTs, AAO, and GNS. The work on N-CNTs disclosed that the ALD-SnO2 is favored by doped nitrogen atoms but the effects of different nitrogen-doping configurations vary with growth temperatures. In comparison, the ALD-SnO2 on AAO and GNS mainly relies on hydroxyl groups. A common finding from the studies is that growth temperatures influence the resultant SnO2, leading to amorphous, crystalline phase, or the mixtures of the aforementioned two. In addition, the cyclic nature of ALD contributes to controlled growth of SnO2. Based on the results from the ALD-SnO2 on AAO, it was concluded that the ALD-SnO2 experience three different growth modes with temperature, i.e., layer-by-layer, layer-by-particle, and evolutionary particles. The layers are in amorphous phase while the particles are in crystalline rutile phase. The aforementioned understandings on ALD-SnO2 led to pure SnO2 nanotubes based on AAO, CNT-SnO2 core-shell coaxial nanotubes, and GNS-based SnO2 3D architectures with controlled growth and structural phases. The third metal oxide, titanium dioxide (TiO2) was deposited using titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) and water as ALD precursors. It was found that the ALD-TiO2 is tunable from amorphous to crystalline anatase phase with temperature while the resultant deposition is controllable from nanoparticles to nanofilms as well. Based on different substrate, i.e., AAO, acid-pretreated CNTs, and GNS, TiO2 was fabricated with different nanostructures including nanotubes, core-shell coaxial nanotubes, and 3D architectures. In particular, the resultant nanostructures are distinguished with controlled phases and morphologies of TiO2. Different from the above binary metal oxides, the last metal oxide, lithium titanium oxide (Li4Ti5O12, LTO) is a ternary compound. The route for ALD-LTO is based on combining and tuning two sub-ALD systems. One sub-ALD system is for TiO2 using TTIP and water, and another sub-ALD system is for lithium-containing films using lithium tert-butoxide (LTB) and water as precursors. It was revealed that, through suitably matching the ratios of the two sub-ALD systems and annealing the resultant films, LTO is successfully synthesized on N-CNTs. However, this pioneering work shows a bit rutile TiO2 with LTO, and thus further effort is needed in future work.

Book Process to Make Core shell Structured Nanoparticles

Download or read book Process to Make Core shell Structured Nanoparticles written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disclosed is a process for making a composite material that contains core-shell structured nanoparticles. The process includes providing a precursor in the form of a powder a liquid and/or a vapor of a liquid that contains a core material and a shell material, and suspending the precursor in an aerosol gas to produce an aerosol containing the precursor. In addition, the process includes providing a plasma that has a hot zone and passing the aerosol through the hot zone of the plasma. As the aerosol passes through the hot zone of the plasma, at least part of the core material and at least part of the shell material in the aerosol is vaporized. Vapor that contains the core material and the shell material that has been vaporized is removed from the hot zone of the plasma and allowed to condense into core-shell structured nanoparticles.
