in this paper metal-assisted chemical etching has been applied to pattern porous silicon regions and silicon nanohole arrays in submicron period simply by using positive photoresist as a mask layer. in order to define silicon nanostructures, metal-assisted chemical etching (mace) was carried out with silver catalyst. provided solution (or materiel) in combination with laser interference lithogr...

in this experimental work, by using the method of plasma-chemical etching, we have dealtwith the causes of the creation of a distorted layer on the surface of silicon wafers during mechanicalmachining processes, in addition, the elucidation of connections between the structure of this layer andcharacteristic parameters of the mechanical strength of these wafers have been studied. experimentalre...

Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs) are well known for the detection of ionizing radiation through track formation of heavy ionizing particles. The LR-115 detector is a commonly used SSNTD for the detection and measurement of Rn and its progeny. Several techniques of track revelation are known but, the chemical etching technique is the most frequently used in which tracks can be made v...

Niobium cavity is an important component of the integrated NC/SC high-power linacs. Over the years researchers in several countries have tested various cavity shapes. They concluded that elliptically shaped cells and buffered chemical polishing produce good results. The objective of this paper is to study the effect of chemical etching on the surface quality and to optimize this process. Chemic...

CR-39 Solid State Nuclear Track Detecting foils (SSNTD), along with 1 mm thick polyethylene radiator, sealed in triple laminated pouches, are used for country wide Fast Neutron Personnel Monitoring in India. With the present system of processing by elevated temperature electrochemical etching (ETECE) and evaluation using automatic image analysis, only 16 foils are processed at a time and it is ...

At present the main cause of death originates from cardiovascular diseases. Primarily the most frequent cause is vessel closing thus resulting in tissue damage. The stent can help to avoid this. It expands the narrowed vessel section and allows free blood flow. The good surface quality of stents is important. It also must have adequate mechanical characteristics or else it can be damaged which ...

Solid-state nanopore has captured the attention of many researchers due to its characteristic of nanoscale. Now, different fabrication methods have been reported, which can be summarized into two broad categories: "top-down" etching technology and "bottom-up" shrinkage technology. Ion track etching method, mask etching method chemical solution etching method, and high-energy particle etching an...
