The Diamond like carbon (DLC) and diamond coatings were deposited on a steel substrate using plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (PA CVD) method. The parameters of deposition were analyzed in relation to the effectiveness of the process and the quality of coatings. It was found that the DLC coatings formed only at specific conditions of temperature and pressure of precursor gases. The characterization of coatings were performed by Raman spectromicroscopy, X-ray diffraction and infrared spectromicroscopy which allowed us to recognize the dominant phases and the distribution of bonds inside the coatings. The chemical bonds such as sp2 C-C, sp3 CH3/CH2 and sp3 CH were found in microstructure coatings. The maps of distribution of bonds in the coatings were also prepared. Additionally, their microstructure was investigated by scanning electron microscopes which have revealed a spherical grains morphology of the coatings.

Brazing diamond grits onto steel substrate using a Ni-based filler alloy was carried out via laser beam in an argon atmosphere. The microstructure of the interfacial region among the Diamond grits and the filler layer were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopes (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Meanwhile, the formation mechanism of carbide layers was discussed. All the results indicated that the active element chromium in the Ni-based alloy concentrated preferentially to the surface of the grits to form a chromium-rich layer, and the hard joint between the alloy and the steel substrate is established through a cross-diffusion of iron and Ni-based alloy through parameters optimization.

<p>The tin coating was elaborated electrolytically on an ordinary steel substrate in SnSO<sub>4</sub> based electrolyte in acid medium with additive (bis-glycobenzimidazolone) at ambient temperature. The pH is maintained at 1.2±0.2 Bis-glycobenzimidazolone influence on the electrochemical properties of the tin coating was investigated using stationary polarization, chronopotentiometry, and cyclic voltammetry techniques. These studies show an apparent decrease in cathodic peak current and a drop in potential. The deposition rate also decreases as the concentration of the additive increases.  SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) observation and XRD (X-ray Diffraction) analysis showed that the coating consists of good surface quality of the deposit elaborated by the addition of an optimal concentration of bis-glycobenzimidazolone (10<sup>-3</sup>M) in the electrolyte, which constitutes the continuation of a preliminary study.<strong></strong></p>

Abstract The paper presents results of studies of composite nickel/graphene coatings produced by electrodeposition method on a steel substrate. The method of producing composite coatings with nanocrystalline nickel matrix and dispersion phase in the form of graphene is presented. For comparative purposes, the study also includes nano-crystalline Ni coatings produced by electrochemical reduction without built-in graphene flakes. Graphene was characterized by Raman spectroscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopes. Results of studies on the structure and morphology of Ni and Ni/graphene layers produced in a bath containing different amounts of graphene are presented. Material of the coatings was characterized by SEM, light microscopy, X-ray diffraction. The microhardness of the coatings was examined by Knoop measurements. The adhesion of the coatings with the substrate was tested using a scratchtester. The influence of graphene on the structure and properties of composite coatings deposited from a bath with different graphene contents was determined.

Titanium Glycolate

A much simpler and more straightforward method, alcohol interchange for the synthesis of titanium glycolate has been suggested. The method implied the reaction of tetraethyl orthosilicate with ethylene glycol on heating in air. The thermal property of titanium glycolate was characterized by thermal gravimetric (TG) and Differencial Thermal Analysis (DTA) analysis. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to confirm the conversion of crystalline phase of titanium glycolate from anatase to rutile. The characterization of titanium glycolate and products of its pyrolysis was conducted using scanning electron microscopes.

The study investigates the wear of microcrystalline diamond (MCD) and diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings. The MCD and DLC coatings were grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method on WC-Co substrates. The sliding wear tests were performed on the ball-on-plate type of tribometer in reciprocating mode. The ball-cratering wear tests were carried out using Calo tester. The mechanical profilometer, optical and scanning electron microscopes (SEM) were used for investigation of the surface morphology of the wear scars. The wear of DLC coating is more intense in comparison to the MCD coating. In contrast to the MCD coating, no evidence of the DLC coating deflection was found.

Platinum diselenide (PtSe2), which belongs to the transition metals dichalcogenide (TMDCs) class of 2D materials, is characterized with a transition from semimetal to semiconductor with a thickness variation from bulk to monolayer and found in versatile applications especially in sensors and mid-infrared detectors. In this study we report the large-scale synthesis of PtSe2 layers by thermally assisted selenization of pre-deposited platinum films in a horizontal quartz-tube Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) reactor. Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are used for characterization of the obtained 2D PtSe2. It is observed that the Raman spectra of PtSe2 show strong dependence on the thickness (Pt deposition time). XPS analysis was applied to examine the chemical compositions in order to assess the quality of the synthesized PtSe2 films. All the studied properties reveal great potential to obtain continuous layers with a controlled thickness and composition and further potential for integration in functional heterostructures for future nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices.

Natural FeTiO 3 (illuminate) and synthesized FeTiO 3, single crystals were characterized by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy combined with channeling technique and particle-induced x-ray emission (RBS-C and PIXE). The results obtained by the ion beam analysis were supplemented by the x-ray diffraction analysis to identify the crystallographic phase. Oriented single crystals of synthesized FeTiO 3 were grown under the pressure control of CO 2 and H 2 mixture gas using a single-crystal floating zone technique. The crystal quality of synthesized FeTiO 3 single crystals could be improved by the thermal treatment but the exact pressure control is needed to avoid the precipitation of Fe 2 O 3 even during the annealing procedure. Natural FeTiO 3 contains several kinds of impurities such as Mn , Mg , Na and Si . The synthesized samples contain Al , Si and Na which are around 100 ppm level as impurities. The PBS-C results of the natural sample imply that Mn impurities occupy the Fe sublattice in FeTiO 3 or in mixed phase between ilmenite and hematite.

Argon Content

The effect of argon content upon the growth rate and the properties of diamond thin films grown with different grains sizes are explored. An argon-free and argon-rich gas mixture of methane and hydrogen is used in a hot filament chemical vapor deposition reactor. Characterization of the films is accomplished by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and high-resolution x-ray diffraction. An extensive comparison of the growth rate values and films morphologies obtained in this study with those found in the literature suggests that there are distinct common trends for microcrystalline and nanocrystalline diamond growth, despite a large variation in the gas mixture composition. Included is a discussion of the possible reasons for these observations.
