Samples deposited with SiO2 films were immersed in different concentration simulated body fluid(SBF) for biomimetic deposition of hydroxyapatite(HA). The results show that SiO2 functional films deposited on titanium surface with PACVD have good bioactivity. Hydroxyapatite is formed while titanium coated with SiO2 is immersed in simulated body fluid for seven days.展开更多

Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are particularly interesting due to the prominent role of silicon in electronics. Various approaches for selective growth and bulk production of SiNWs are demonstrated. Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition with silane as a source and gold as catalyst is used for low-temperature (<400℃) selective growth of SiNWs [1], Fig.展开更多

Effects of the CVD temperature and heat treatment were studied in detail. Well-aligned open-ended MWCNT arrays were obtained at the CVD temperature above 600℃; when CVD temperature is reduced to around 550℃, CNTs, CNFs and other structures existed at the same time; no CNTs or carbon nanofibres (CNFs) could be fouad as the CVD temperature is below 500℃, and only amorphous carbon in the porous AAO template was found. Experimental results showed that the AAO template is catalytic during the CVD process, and it has the following two effects: to catalyze thermal decomposition of acetylene and to catalyze conversion of carbon decomposed from acetylene into CNTs or CNFs. Heat treatment could improve the graphitization degree, but it might also introduce new defects.展开更多
