Metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of InGaAsN using dilute nitrogen trifluoride

The metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of In0.06Ga0.94As1 xNx, with x 1⁄4 0.00–0.02, has been examined using nitrogen trifluoride (NF3) and tertiarybutylarsine. The solid N/V ratio increased linearly with the gas-phase N/V ratio up to a limit of 2.0% nitrogen in the film at a gas N/V 1⁄4 0.35. No further increase in nitrogen content could be achieved at a growth temperature of 550 1C unless...

Environmental exposure assessment framework for nanoparticles in solid waste

Information related to the potential environmental exposure of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) in the solid waste management phase is extremely scarce. In this paper, we define nanowaste as separately collected or collectable waste materials which are or contain ENMs, and we present a five-step framework for the systematic assessment of ENM exposure during nanowaste management. The framework in...

A framework for grouping nanoparticles based on their measurable characteristics

BACKGROUND There is a need to take a broader look at nanotoxicological studies. Eventually, the field will demand that some generalizations be made. To begin to address this issue, we posed a question: are metal colloids on the nanometer-size scale a homogeneous group? In general, most people can agree that the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials can be linked and related to their induc...
