Ultrasonic atomization of graphene derivatives for heat spreader thin film deposition on silicon substrate

Strained germanium thin film membrane on silicon substrate for optoelectronics.

This work presents a novel method to introduce a sustainable biaxial tensile strain larger than 1% in a thin Ge membrane using a stressor layer integrated on a Si substrate. Raman spectroscopy confirms 1.13% strain and photoluminescence shows a direct band gap reduction of 100meV with enhanced light emission efficiency. Simulation results predict that a combination of 1.1% strain and heavy n(+)...

Oblique Angle Deposition of Germanium Film on Silicon Substrate

The effect of flux angle, substrate temperature and deposition rate on obliquely deposited germanium (Ge) films has been investigated. By carrying out deposition with the vapor flux inclined at 87 to the substrate normal at substrate temperatures of 250C or 300C, it may be possible to obtain isolated Ge nanowires. The Ge nanowires are crystalline as shown by Raman Spectroscopy.

Novel Deposition Technique for Fast Growth of Hydrogenated Microcrystalline Silicon Thin-Film for Thin-Film Silicon Solar Cells

the effect of tio2 thin film on ac electrical properties of nano porous silicon substrate

the ac electrical behaviour of nano porous silicon (psi) with tio2 thin films was examined over the range of frequency 102 to 105 hz. porous silicon (psi) layers were obtained by electrochemical etching in hf solution and tio2 thin films were deposited on psi substrates by using electron beam evaporation technique at room temperature. the porosity of psi layer was found by using the gravimetric...

Thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis membrane prepared by graphene oxide embedded PSf substrate

One of the limiting factors in good performance of forward osmosis (FO) membranes is the internal concentration polarization (ICP). To reduce ICP, thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis (TFN-FO) membranes were fabricated by adding different amounts of graphene oxide (GO) nanoplates (0-1 wt. %) to polymer matrix of polysulfone (PSf) substrate. The prepared nanocomposite membranes exhibited both...
