AbstractCopper films with a small amount of an alloy element (1 wt % Ti) were metallized on polyimide. Plasma pre-treatment of the polyimide surface and post-metallization annealing were used to modify the interface. Interfaces and metal film layers were investigated; a drastic increase in adhesion strength, the suppression of Cu diffusion into polyimide, and the improvement of (111) texture were found. Composition analysis data taken from the interface indicated the accretion of nitrogen at the interface. The formation of Ti-related chemical bonds, suggested by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, can explain the above-mentioned experimental results.

ABSTRACTA new substrate material consisting of a buffer layer of a Ba-Si compound was developed by making use of the chemical reaction between BaF2 and Si. This substrate is very promising for the integration of IV-VI semiconductor materials with silicon. PbTe films of excellent quality, as determined by X-ray and Reflected High Energy Electron Diffraction spectra, have been deposited over (111)- and (100)-oriented silicon wafers of 3 inch diameter. These PbTe films are (100)-oriented irrespective of the Si orientation. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies reveal very interesting chemistry at the interface between Ba-Si and Te. They suggest that BaTe may form between PbTe and Ba-Si at their interface. This interfacial region, which is of the order of only a few molecular layers, appears to be critical in the success of the deposition. Thermal cycling showed that the PbTe/BaSi/Si system is mechanically very stable. The possibility of a similar growth mechanism for the deposition of II-VI semiconductors such as CdTe is considered.

ABSTRACTThin films of pure germanium-carbon alloys (GexC1−x with x ≈ 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) have been grown on Si(100) and A12O3 (0001) substrates by pulsed laser ablation in a high vacuum chamber. The films were analyzed by x-ray θ-2θ diffraction (XRD), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), conductivity measurements and optical absorption spectroscopy. The analyses of these new materials showed that films of all compositions were amorphous, free of contamination and uniform in composition. By changing the film composition, the optical band gap of these semiconducting films was varied from 0.00eV to 0.85eV for x = 0.0 to 1.0 respectively. According to the AES results, the carbon atoms in the Ge-C alloy thin film samples has a bonding configuration that is a mixture of sp2 and sp3 hybridizations.

Preliminary Study

Utilization of brown algae especially in Madura, where it’s close to Surabaya, only limited for food. This become a reference for developing and increasing the potential of this algae by extracting one of the ingredients, namely alginate. This paper deals with the characterization of sodium alginate extracted from sargassum sp. using modified-purified calcium routes. The extracted sodium alginate will be further used as composite hydrogel materials and compared with commercial sodium alginate. Hereafter, the synthesized composite is expected to be bio-ink for 3d printer. Chemical composition analysis were analyzed using X-Ray Fluorosense (XRF) followed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis to identify the functional group of composite and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Furthermore, viscosity bath is performed to compare the viscosity of extracted and commercial one. The result shows that modified-purified calcium routes in the extraction process of sodium alginate is desirable for improving their properties. Interestingly enough, with the goal of using it as bio-ink in 3d printed fabrication, the synthesized composite shows viscosity, 300 cSt, which meets the criteria for bio-ink in 3d printer.

This paper aims to contribute to the understanding of column formation mechanisms in Al2O3–TiC ceramics micromachined using excimer lasers. Chemical and structural characterization of columns grown in Al2O3–TiC composite processed with 200 KrF laser pulses at 10 J/cm2 was carried out by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction analysis. Fully developed columns consist of a core of unprocessed material surrounded by an outer layer of Al2TiO5, formed in oxidizing conditions, and an inner layer, formed in reducing conditions, composed of TiC and Al3Ti or an AlTi solid solution. Possible mechanisms of column formation are discussed.

Ultrafine fibers were electrospun from polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) solution as a precursor of carbon nanofibers. The effects of solution concentration, applied voltage and flow rate on preparation and morphologies of electrospun PAN fibers were investigated. Morphologies of the green fibers, stabilized fibers and carbonized fibers were compared by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The diameter of PAN nanofibers is about 450nm and the distribution of diameter is well-proportioned. Characterization of the elements changes of fibers were performed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
