Deposition and characterisation of a diamond/Ti/diamond multilayer structure by Mallik, Awadesh Kumar, Lloret, Fernando, Gutierrez, Marina, Rouzbahani, Rozita, Pobedinskas, Paulius, Shih, Wen-Ching, Haenen, Ken

“…In this work, a diamond/Ti/diamond multilayer structure has been fabricated by successively following thin-film CVD and PVD routes. It has been found that a combined pre-treatment of the silicon base substrate, via argon plasma etching for creating surface roughness and, thereafter, detonation nanodiamond (DND) seeding, helps in the nucleation and growth of well-adherent CVD diamond films with a well-defined Raman signal at 1332 cm−1, showing the crystalline nature of the film. …”

Modeling of plasma motion in a toroidal solenoid by Tu, Yuqiang.

“…Filtered Cathodic Vacuum Arc (FCVA) deposition technique has received extensive attention recently due to its unique feature: vacuum arc is generated at one end of a toroidal solenoid filter, in which those ions and electrons in the arc follow the force line of the magnetic field and pass through, while those neutral particles moving in straight lines are filtered away, and a "purified" plasma is obtained at the other end. Thin films, such as to-carbon films prepared by this method exhibit superior properties. …”

Characterization and structural modification of polysilsesquioxanes for low dielectric constant (k) applications in deep sub-micron devices by Siew, Yong Kong.

“…A preliminary study on the thermal stability of different spin-on dielectrics (SODs) has been conducted and it is found that generally organic SODs exhibited lower thermal stability, both in terms of weight loss and the highest allowable temperature, compared to inorganic SODs. On the other hand, thin film characterization and thermal analysis techniques gave evidences which support the notion that the redistribution of Si-0 and Si-ll bonds is the reaction mechanism responsible for the chemical changes induced by heating. …”
