SiC薄膜的阻氚性能研究

在不锈钢基体表面用离子束混合技术沉积SiC薄膜,然后用能量为5 keV的H+对其辐照直至剂量达到1×1018/cm2,再用二次离子质谱分析(SIMS)分析H+在SiC薄膜中深度分布和正离子谱,研究薄膜的阻氢性能和阻氢机理;最后采用渗透实验对涂覆在不锈钢基体表面的SiC材料的氚渗透系数进行测试,对其阻氚性能进行验证.结果表明,在不锈钢基材表面涂覆的SiC薄膜具有良好的阻氢性能,可将氚的渗透率降低4个数量级以上,SiC薄膜的阻氢是由于氢与薄膜中的硅、碳悬挂键反应形成诸如C-H、C-H2、C-H3、Si-H、Si-H2和Si-H3引起的.     

Si基Cu/NiFe薄膜的生长及其粘附特性研究

微机械(MEMS)工艺和集成电路(IC)工艺中,在硅(Si)片上电铸高深宽比坡莫(NiFe)合金材料常出现脱落现象.提出了一种电铸NiFe合金材料的新方法,这种方法制作的合金薄膜厚度达200 μm时不脱落.此方法即对等离子刻蚀后的硅片溅射种子层铜(Cu),然后对种子层进行电镀,当其厚度达到约15 μm时,再进行NiFe合金的电铸.本文用扫描电镜、x射线衍射仪和剥离实验研究了薄膜粘附特性.研究结果表明当对种子层电镀后,随着Cu种子层厚度的增加,Cu/NiFe薄膜与基体的粘附强度增加,而薄膜的残余应力降低;同时Cu膜表面粗糙度增加,也增加了NiFe膜与Cu膜的粘附强度.     

多弧离子镀与磁控溅射共沉积TiN/TiCN多层膜的高温抗氧化性能

TiN/TiCN多层膜的高温抗氧化性研究对于扩大其应用领域具有重要作用,但目前鲜见相关报道。采用多弧离子镀与磁控溅射技术以不同调制周期在304不锈钢表面共沉积TiN/TiCN多层膜。采用XRD、XPS、倒置显微镜及高温氧化试验研究了多层膜的高温抗氧化行为。结果表明:TiN/TiCN多层膜表面光滑平整、均匀致密,薄膜主要为具有Ti-(C,N)键的fcc-TiN结构;随着调制周期的减小,TiN/TiCN多层膜生长取向发生转变,且具有(111)晶面生长织构;随着氧化温度的升高,多层膜的显微硬度逐渐降低,氧化增重速率不断增大,且在700℃之后变化速率较快,薄膜的开始氧化温度约为750℃;随着调制周期的减小,多层膜TiN与TiCN界面层数量增多,促使晶粒细化,提高了其致密性,还隔断了缺陷贯穿薄膜的连续性,显著降低了薄膜的孔隙率,致使O原子扩散困难,增强了薄膜的高温抗氧化性能。     

Microstructure and properties of nc-TiC/a-C∶H films deposited by radio frequency reactive sputtering

Abstract

Amorphous carbon films containing titanium carbide (nc-TiC/a-C∶H) were deposited onto n-type silicon (100) by radio frequency reactive sputtering titanium target in an Ar–CH₄ mixed atmosphere. The composition and microstructure of the films were characterised by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field emitted SEM, XRD and Raman spectra. The mechanical and tribological properties of the films were measured by a nanoindentation tester and a ball-on-disc UMT–2MT tribometer. By adjusting the CH₄ flowrate, Ti content in the films could be controlled, and a transition in structures of the films from loose polymer-like to glassy and dense nanostructure was observed. The density of coatings was improved by the introduction of TiC nanocrystalline particles. The mechanical and lubricious properties were different accordingly.

Investigation of temperature-dependent polarization, dielectric, and magnetization behavior of multiferroic layered nanostructure

The PbZr_0.53Ti_0.47O₃(PZT)/CoFe₂O₄(CFO) layered nanostructures show lowering of dielectric constant and polarization, and an enhanced magnetization with a decrease in temperature from 400 K to 100 K. The temperature dependence of the real part of the dielectric constant illustrates a step-like behavior, whereas the imaginary part gives a relaxation peak near the step maxima temperature. A slow decrease in the polarization was observed from 300 K to 200 K, with an eventual collapse of polarization at ~ 100 K, and a complete polarization recovery with heating, these phenomena is reproducible over cycles of experiment. Remanent magnetization of the layered nanostructure was found to be three times higher at 100 K than that at room temperature. There is a slow enhancement in remanent (internal) magnetization with lowering of temperature, resulting in slow polarization switch and finally the collapse. The temperature-dependent dielectric, polarization and magnetization were different from the parent layer, indicating a kind of dynamic magneto-electric coupling in the layered nanostructures.

Biomimetic Robust Starch Composite Films with Super-Hydrophobicity and Vivid Structural Colors

The starch composite films (SCFs) will be one of the best alternative packaging materials to petroleum based plastic films, which mitigates white pollution and energy consumption. However, weak mechanical stability, water resistance, and dyeability has hindered the application of SCFs. Herein, a bioinspired robust SCFs with super-hydrophobicity and excellent structural colors were prepared by fiber-reinforcement and assembling SiO₂/Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) amorphous arrays on the surface of SCFs. The properties of the designed SCFs were investigated by various methods including scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), a tensile test, contact angle (CA) test, and an optical test. The results showed that the obtained SCFs possessed a higher tensile strength (55.17 MPa) attributed to the formed abundant hydrogen bonds between the molecular chains of the starch, cellulose fiber, and polyvinyl alcohol. Benefiting from the nanostructure with rough surface which were modified by materials with low surface free energy, the contact angle and sliding angle of the film reached up to 154° and 2°, respectively. The colors which were produced by the constructive interference of the coherent scattered light could cover all of the visible regions by tuning the diameters of the SiO₂ nanoparticles. The strategy in the present study not only reinforces the mechanical strength and water resistance of SCFs but also provides an environmentally friendly way to color the them, which shows unprecedented application potential in packaging materials of the starch composite films.
