Chemical and physical routes under conditions of moderate not extreme temperatures and
pressures are generally used to synthesize nanocrystals and nanostructures with …

The critical role of charged nanoclusters and nanoparticles in the growth of thin films and
nanostructures by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) is reviewed. Advanced nanoparticle …

This work presents the potential for using pulsed gas injection to produce amorphous
carbon films. In this experiment, the frequency of injecting small amounts of gas was used to …

A possibility for the new synthesis method of diamond nanoparticles is studied using a hot
filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) reactor. Considering the growth mechanism of …

Negatively charged clusters of 3000–18000 atomic mass units, which had been predicted by
the charged cluster model, were experimentally confirmed under typical process conditions …

Monodispersed TiO2 ultrafine particles were obtained from aqueous TiOCl2 solution with a
0.67 M Ti4+ concentration prepared by diluting TiCl4 with the homogeneous precipitation …

The high-temperature equilibrated atomic structures and energies of large-unit-cell grain
boundaries (GB's) in diamond and silicon are determined by means of Monte-Carlo …

A cauliflower structure is a granular film composed of spherical particles similar in size, each
with numerous nanoscale nodules on its surface. The structure is produced during certain …

Thin films are generally thought of as being the product of a reaction between the surface
and atoms and/or molecules in the gas phase. However, a relatively new theory, the theory …

Nanoparticle-based crystallization has become an important issue since the direct
observation of the growth of nanorods or crystals from nanoparticles as the building block in …
