In this work we investigate the triboelectric properties of Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs) films for potential application in triboelectric generators. CQDs were deposited on silicon wafers, using spin on techniques. Device performance was estimated in sliding mode experiments, where the CQDs-surface was sliding on top of a flexible substrate. The triboelectric signal as well as the charging of capacitors, after signal rectification, was monitored as a function of time. Our results indicate that surface roughness plays a very important role in the triboelectric signal and could compensate opposite trends due to other parameters, such as the dielectric film thickness.

Blocking is undesired adhesion between two surfaces when subjected to pressure and temperature constraints. Blocking between two coated paperboards in contact with each other may be caused by inter-diffusion, adsorption, or electrostatic forces occurring between the respective coating surfaces. These interactions are influenced by factors such as the temperature, pressure, surface roughness, and surface energy. Blocking potentially can be reduced by adjusting these factors, or by using antiblocking additives such as talc, amorphous silica, fatty acid amides, or polymeric waxes. We developed a method of quantifying blocking using a rheometer. Coated surfaces were put in contact with each other with controlled pressure and temperature for a definite period. We then measured the work necessary to pull the two surfaces apart. This was a reproducible way to accurately quantify blocking. The method was applied to determine the effect external factors have on the blocking tendency of coated paperboards, i.e., antiblocking additive concentration, film thickness, temperature, and humidity.

The photoluminescence of carbon quantum dots synthesized from natural honey and mixtures of honey and sugar has been studied. An increase in the sugar content leads to a decrease in the photoluminescence intensity without changing the shape of the luminescence spectrum of these quantum dots aqueous solutions, which is associated with a decrease in the yield of their synthesis in the sugar presence. The discovered effect can be used to detect sugar in honey. When examining five different market samples of flower honey using this method, two of them showed a significant decrease in the photoluminescence intensity. A laboratory test for compliance with GOST 19792-2017 Standard requirements established an excess of the sucrose content in these samples. Luminescent determination of sugar in honey does not require complicated equipment and can be used to develop a new analytical method for determining the sugar content in counterfeit natural honey.

AbstractThis work focuses on the development and physical characteristics of a novel dielectric film for a pre-metal dielectric (PMD) application which induces a significant degree of tensile stress in the channel of a sub-65nm node CMOS structure. The film can be deposited at low temperatures to meet the requirements of NiSi integration while maintaining void-free gap fill and superior film quality such as moisture content and uniformity. A manufacturable and highly reliable oxide film has been demonstrated through both TCAD simulation and real device data, showing ~6% NMOS Ion-Ioff improvement; no Ion-Ioff improvement or degradation on PMOS. A new concept has been proposed to explain the PMD strain effect on device performance improvement. Improvement in Hot Carrier immunity is observed compared to similar existing technologies using high density plasma (HDP) deposition techniques.
