چکیده

Diamond layers have been deposited by hot filament chemical vapour deposition (HF CVD) on TiN-coated steel substrates. After deposition, we could observe separate, well-developed diamond icosahedrons and decahedrons on the surface. We have found that a lower content of methane in hydrogen supports their growth, this being a result of multifold twinning. The quality of diamond layers has been evaluated by Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. q 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Thin film nano solar cells--from device optimization to upscaling.

Stainless steel based dye solar cells have been upscaled from small, laboratory size test cells of 0.32 cm2 active area to 6 cm x 6 cm "mini-modules" with active areas ca. 15 cm2. Stainless steel works as the photoelectrode substrate whilst the counter electrode is prepared on indium-doped tin oxide coated polyethyleneterephtalate or polyethylenenaphtalate plastic foil (fluorine-doped tin oxide...

CORROSION RESISTANCE OF TiN COATED 316L STAINLESS STEEL IN ARTIFICIAL PHYSIOLOGICAL SOLUTION

The corrosion behavior of TiN coated 316L stainless steel in an artificial physiological solution was investigated by means of an electrochemical test. Two different PVD methods were used for film deposition: cathodic arc and reactive magnetron sputtering. The dependence of the corrosion resistance on the main deposition parameters (nitrogen pressure, substrate bias) was analyzed. For a better ...

An Investigation on Two Types of Crystalline Micro-diamond Film Coated Tools Lapping with Sapphire Wafer

Two types of micron-diamond films were prepared on YG6 substrate by hot filament chemical vapor deposition(HFCVD) method. Morphology and orientation of crystalline growth were evaluated by SEM and XRD. Diamond film coated tools and sapphire wafer’ surface before and after lapping experiment  were contrasted. The results indicated that a significant change in Raman spectrum of two types of micro...
