Carbon Sputtering Targets and Applications

Carbon is a chemical element with symbol C and atomic number 6. Carbon is the 15th most abundant element in the Earth's crust, and the fourth most abundant element in the universe by mass after hydrogen, helium, and oxygen. Carbon's ability to give reactions with the most the elements makes it a vital for life.
As we mentioned above carbon is an element that gives reactions easily and this property of carbon make it useful in too many applications. When we focus on nanaparticles of carbon, we see that we can obtain thin films with these particles and use them for various aims. Now let's look at the properties of carbon sputtering targets and how we can obtain them.
Carbon sputtering targets, which have unique characteristics from the wide tunability of their chemical bonds. There are different ways to obtain carbon films and magnetron sputtering is one of these ways. There are three possible mechanisms for the deposition of carbon films with magnetron sputtering. First, the use of argon positive ions may induce sputtering of carbon atoms onto film surfaces like knock-on collision. Second, continuous bombardment of argon ions may enhance the densification of sputtered carbon atoms on the films. Finally, the conversion of sp2to sp3bonds, driven by high local stress, would be generated by the intense bombardment of argon ions.
Porous carbon films that can be obtained by magnetron sputtering are important for various applications such as in gas separation, ultra-filtration, membrane reactors, fuel cells, and bio-sensors. To see how carbon films can be obtained by magnetron sputtering you may check the paper below:

Rundown about Silicon Oxide Wafer

The main insulating material used in micro-technology is Silicon Dioxide, which in chemical symbols is written as SiO2. In semiconductor technology, SiO2 thin film layers are mainly used as dielectric material film in transistors, capacitors (DRAM) or flash-memories. Silicon Oxide Wafers are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra-high purification processes such as sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form wafers. Thermal oxide is a kind of "grown" oxide layer, compared to CVD deposited oxide layer, it has a higher uniformity, and higher dielectric strength, it is an excellent dielectric layer as an insulator . In most silicon- based devices, thermal oxide layer play an important role to pacify the silicon surface to act as doping barriers and as surface dielectrics. The simplest way to produce an insulating silicon oxide layers (SiO2) on silicon wafers is to oxidize silicon with oxygen, which ...

New Way of Deaf-Mute Communication with 3D Graphene

Image retrieved from: http://blogs.rsc.org/cc/2016/09/01/3d-graphene-adds-dimension-to-deaf%E2%80%93mute-communication/ Chinese scientists have developed wearable electronic device with conductive 3D graphene structure to translate sign language into written text. This technology can be applied by injecting graphene ink from a syringe under printed electronic field. For medical field, such as adhesive patches which determine heart, brain signal and neural activity, wearable and bio-integrated medical devices are very important. Due to noticeable properties of cast graphene, for example a 2D honeycomb lattice, excellent mechanical and electrical behaviors, Graphene has an important material in warble technology. However, it is difficult to preserve advantages of Graphene material in a 3D material which has an information about forces from every angle. Yanlin Song  and co-workers at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Shenyang Jianzhu University...
