Fine whiskers of a C60 derivative, i.e., C60 monosubstituted by ethyl ester of malonic acid, C60[C(COOC2H5)2], were fabricated for the first time using a system of toluene with concentrated C60[C(COOC2H5)2] and isopropyl alcohol. The center-to-center distance of C60[C(COOC2H5)2] molecules along the close-packed direction of the C60[C(COOC2H5)2] whiskers was in the same range as that of the C60 nanowhiskers prepared by the same method. The C60[C(COOC2H5)2] whiskers were assumed to take body-centered tetragonal or hexagonal close-packed crystal structures. The C60[C(COOC2H5)2] whiskers showed a high density of stacking faults. The C60[C(COOC2H5)2] whiskers with the growth direction different from the C60 whiskers were observed.

Zn or Mg ions doped hydroxyapatite (HA) particles were successfully developed by introducing various concentration of Zn or Mg in the starting solution using wet chemical precipitation method and followed a hydrothermal treatment. The products were identified as HA by XRD and FTIR, and the precipitated particles had a rod-like morphology. All the products for Mg and Zn ions concentration in the preparation solution less than 40 mol% were identified as HA. Substitution of Mg and Zn in HA crystal would impair the crystallization of HA and significantly reduce the length of a, c values of HA unit cell, which clearly demonstrated that Mg or Zn ions were structurally incorporated into the apatite crystals, they were not just absorbed on the surface of crystals.

The aim of the present work is to study the structural properties of 3C-SiC which is grown on (0001) 6H-SiC and on (100) 3C-SiC (Hoya) seeds using the Continuous Feed Physical Vapor Transport (CF-PVT) method. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) observations confirm that the overgrown layer is of the 3C-SiC polytype. In the case of the 6H-SiC substrate, microtwins (MTs), stacking faults (SFs) and dislocations (D) are observed at the substrate-overgrown interface with most of the dislocations annihilating within the first few µm from the interface. In the case of 3C-SiC crystals grown on 3C seeds, repeated SFs are formed locally and also coherent (111) twins of 3C-SiC are frequently observed near the surface. The SF density is reduced at the uppermost part of the grown material.

LiMnO2 are synthesized by hydrothermal technique by using Mn(CH3COO)2.4H2O and MnO2 with the same mole ratio which are dissolved in aqueous solution with different concentration LiOH. Structural characterization based on X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy reveals that LiMnO2 is in a well-order orthorhombic structure with lower stacking faults compared to the LiMnO2 prepared by other techniques. Experimental results show that the concentration of lithium hydroxide in aqueous solution affect the quality of LiMnO2.

Fine tubular fibers composed of C60 and C70 fullerene molecules were successfully fabricated by the liquid–liquid interfacial precipitation method. The walls of the tubular fibers were crystalline, and the fullerene molecules were densely packed along the growth axis of tube wall. The tubular structures are called “fullerene nanotubes.” The inner diameter and the outer diameter of C70 tubes showed a linear relationship, suggesting a constant wall thickness of the tubes. The tubular structures composed of C70 molecules could be formed when their diameter was larger than about 240 nm. The fullerene tubes were successfully fabricated by using a C60-C70 soot as well. The formation of fullerene nanotubes can be understood by assuming a mechanism of core dissolution of the solvated fullerene nanowhiskers.

Coherent X-ray diffraction was used to measure the type, quantity and the relative distances between stacking faults along the growth direction of two individual wurtzite GaAs nanowires grown by metalorganic vapour epitaxy. The presented approach is based on the general property of the Patterson function, which is the autocorrelation of the electron density as well as the Fourier transformation of the diffracted intensity distribution of an object. Partial Patterson functions were extracted from the diffracted intensity measured along the [000\bar{1}] direction in the vicinity of the wurtzite 00\bar{1}\bar{5} Bragg peak. The maxima of the Patterson function encode both the distances between the fault planes and the type of the fault planes with the sensitivity of a single atomic bilayer. The positions of the fault planes are deduced from the positions and shapes of the maxima of the Patterson function and they are in excellent agreement with the positions found with transmission electron microscopy of the same nanowire.

In this work we study the fabrication and characterization of hafnium nanoparticles and hafnium nanoparticle thin films. Hafnium nanoparticles were grown in vacuum by magnetron-sputtering inert-gas condensation. The as deposited nanoparticles have a hexagonal close-packed crystal structure, they possess truncated hexagonal biprism shape and are prone to surface oxidation when exposed to ambient air forming core–shell Hf/HfO2 structures. Hafnium nanoparticle thin films were formed through energetic nanoparticle deposition. This technique allows for the control of the energy of charged nanoparticles during vacuum deposition. The structural and nanomechanical properties of the nanoparticle thin films were investigated as a function of the kinetic energy of the nanoparticles. The results reveal that by proper adjustment of the nanoparticle energy, hexagonal close-packed porous nanoparticle thin films with good mechanical properties can be formed, without any additional treatment. It is shown that these films can be patterned on the substrate in sub-micrometer dimensions using conventional lithography while their porosity can be well controlled. The fabrication and experimental characterization of hafnium nanoparticles is reported for the first time in the literature.
