Influence of neutron irradiation on the thermal conductivity of vapor-deposited diamond
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of neutron irradiation on the thermal conductivity K of diamond films fabricated by hot filament (HF) and microwave plasma assisted (MPA) deposition has been studied.. The additional thermal resistivity induced by irradiation is similar to that found in single crystal diamond and is due mainly to the formation of clusters of disordered carbon material. Despite a significant difference in K prior to irradiation, the thermal conductivity of the HF and MPA films is almost the .same after a cumulative dose of 2.7X1017 neutrons cm-‘. -

Growth of carbon nanostructures upon stainless steel and brass by thermal chemical vapor deposition method
The lack of complete understanding of the substrate effects on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth poses a lot oftechnical challenges. Here, we report the direct growth of nanostructures such as the CNTs on stainless steel 304and brass substrates using thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) process with C2H2 gas as carbon sourceand hydrogen as supporting gas mixed in Ar gas flow. We used an especi...

Electrical conductivity of a highly boron doped chemical vapor deposited diamond thin film has been studied at different temperatures under high electric field conditions. Current-voltage characteristics have been measured using pulsed technique to reduce thermal effects. Experimental results evidence deep impurity impact ionization avalanche in p-type diamond up to room temperature.

متن کاملAnalysis of the Surface Morphology of Cvd-grown Diamond Films with X-ray Diffraction
In this study the influence of the addition of nitrogen during growth of diamond films is determined using small-spot X-ray diffraction techniques and compared with the morphological structure. Phase identification showed the presence of crystalline molybdenum carbide at the interface, as well as the incorporation of a small amount of non-diamond carbon throughout the diamond layer. The pole fi...

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is an effective method for treatment of deep seated brain tumors. This method consists of two stages: injection of boron compound in the patient body, and then irradiation of the region tumors with the neutron beam. It allows for delivery of high linear energy transfer (LET) radiation (particles 4He and 7Li nuclei) to tumors at the cellular level whilst avoi...
