Abstract ReS2 is attracting much attention because of its stable trion state. This kind of stable trion state arises on account of weak interlayer coupling as well as anisotropic crystal structure. In this research, we have synthesized ReS2 flakes successfully by using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Stable ionic states in hexagonal wafers are observed by photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). This substance is stable at room temperature. The HRTEM image from the single ReS2 hexagon reveals that the individual hexagon is single crystal. EDS spectroscopy indicates the purity of the synthesized product. We find that the Re and S atoms ratio in pure ReS2 is 1:2. Then we fabricate a photo detector on individual ReS2 flakes and test its performance. We compare the photocurrent in dark current and under a 500 nm incident light for two media (air and 100 ppm H2). Emission current increases from 1.15 μA to 1.67 μA (forward) and from 7.9 μA to 13.8 μA (reverse). Therefore, the ReS2 hexagonal wafer is an ideal choice for stable and reliable room temperature optical gas sensor. And the material can also be used for fast switch.

Gas sensors based on multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) for detecting gaseous molecules of ammoniac (NH3) were developed and investigated. MWCNT film was grown directly by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method on Pt electrodes to fabricate sensor device. The CNT based – gas sensor is shown sensitively and selectively to NH3 gas at room temperature.

Graphene has attracted considerable interest due its exceptional physical properties. This article describes the thermoelectric and magnetic properties such as the Seebeck coefficient and the magnetoresistance, at room temperature, of multilayers of graphene fabricated through the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method and coated with Ag nanoparticles (NPs). According to the results, the Seebeck coefficient increased from -30 to -5 μV/K as a function of deposition time of Ag NPsand magnetoresistance increase their initial value as a function of sheet resistance up to 16.6%.

By summarizing the research and development status in recent years, this thesis especially introduces the preparation method and enhancement mechanism of the functionally gradient material of Mo-MoSi2. Results of experiments show that: alloying and compounding can significantly improve the room-temperature brittleness and high temperature strength;and the application of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method in the preparation of Mo-MoSi2multiphase anti-oxidation coating, has obvious advantages in that it reduces cracking and improves the coating quality. Finally, the developing trend of Mo-MoSi2and its prospected difficulties and hot issues are also pointed out.

We report the synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from ethanol by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Ethanol used as carbon source is atomized by an ultrasonic evaporator at room temperature, and is injected into a CVD furnace through a nozzle installed inside the furnace. The SEM and TEM analysis shows that the product contained CNTs as major constituents with some impurities. The radial breathing mode (RBM) of Raman spectrum reveals that the SWNTs are included in the product. The average diameter of the MWNTs is about 30nm and that of the SWNTs is less than 2nm.

AbstractThe organic magnetoelectric complexes are beneficial for the development on flexible magnetoelectric devices in the future. In this work, we fabricated all organic multiferroic ferromagnetic/ferroelectric complexes to study magnetoelectric coupling at room temperature. Under the stimulus of external magnetic field, the localization of charge inside organic ferromagnets will be enhanced to affect spin–dipole interaction at organic multiferroic interfaces, where overall ferroelectric polarization is tuned to present an organic magnetoelectric coupling. Moreover, the magnetoelectric coupling of the organic ferromagnetic/ferroelectric complex is tightly dependent on incident light intensity. Decreasing light intensity, the dominated interfacial interaction will switch from spin–dipole to dipole–dipole interaction, which leads to the magnetoelectric coefficient changing from positive to negative in organic multiferroic magnetoelectric complexes.

Silica (SiO2, silicon dioxide—a dielectric layer commonly used in electronic devices) is widely used in many types of sensors, such as gas, molecular, and biogenic polyamines. To form silica films, core shell or an encapsulated layer, silane has been used as a precursor in recent decades. However, there are many hazards caused by using silane, such as its being extremely flammable, the explosive air, and skin and eye pain. To avoid these hazards, it is necessary to spend many resources on industrial safety design. Thus, the silica synthesized without silane gas which can be determined as a silane-free procedure presents a clean and safe solution to manufactures. In this report, we used the radio frequency (rf = 13.56 MHz) plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique (PECVD) to form a silica layer at room temperature. The silica layer is formed in hydrogen-based plasma at room temperature and silane gas is not used in this process. The substrate temperature dominates the silica formation, but the distance between the substrate and electrode (DSTE) and the methane additive can enhance the formation of a silica layer on the Si wafer. This silane-free procedure, at room temperature, is not only safer and friendlier to the environment but is also useful in the fabrication of many types of sensors.

A novel and advanced approach of growing zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) directly on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and graphene (Gr) surfaces has been demonstrated through the successful formation of 1D–1D and 1D–2D heterostructure interfaces. The direct two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method was utilized to ensure high-quality materials’ synthesis and scalable production of different architectures. Iron-based universal compound molecular ink was used as a catalyst in both processes (a) to form a monolayer of horizontally defined networks of SWCNTs interfaced with vertically oriented ZnO NWs and (b) to grow densely packed ZnO NWs directly on a graphene surface. We show here that our universal compound molecular ink is efficient and selective in the direct synthesis of ZnO NWs/CNTs and ZnO NWs/Gr heterostructures. Heterostructures were also selectively patterned through different fabrication techniques and grown in predefined locations, demonstrating an ability to control materials’ placement and morphology. Several characterization tools were employed to interrogate the prepared heterostructures. ZnO NWs were shown to grow uniformly over the network of SWCNTs, and much denser packed vertically oriented ZnO NWs were produced on graphene thin films. Such heterostructures can be used widely in many potential applications, such as photocatalysts, supercapacitors, solar cells, piezoelectric or thermal actuators, as well as chemical or biological sensors.

Blackbody-sensitive room-temperature infrared detection is a notable development direction for future low-dimensional infrared photodetectors. However, because of the limitations of responsivity and spectral response range for low-dimensional narrow bandgap semiconductors, few low-dimensional infrared photodetectors exhibit blackbody sensitivity. Here, highly crystalline tellurium (Te) nanowires and two-dimensional nanosheets were synthesized by using chemical vapor deposition. The low-dimensional Te shows high hole mobility and broadband detection. The blackbody-sensitive infrared detection of Te devices was demonstrated. A high responsivity of 6650 A W−1 (at 1550-nm laser) and the blackbody responsivity of 5.19 A W−1 were achieved. High-resolution imaging based on Te photodetectors was successfully obtained. All the results suggest that the chemical vapor deposition–grown low-dimensional Te is one of the competitive candidates for sensitive focal-plane-array infrared photodetectors at room temperature.
