Boron nitride materials have some excellent features, such as high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, good electric performance and radiation resistance . Along with the development of science and technology, boron nitride materials are made into coating widely, put it in the surface of metallic materials or non-metallic materials, can extend their service life significantly[1]. Atomic force microscope (AFM) is widely used for nanoscale morphology characterization and submicron scale structure material, simple sample preparation is its advantage. [2] Based on the domestic boron nitride coating as the research background, using AFM simulate the surface nanostructures of three dimensional, and evaluate the flatness of boron nitride ceramic coating which made by plasma spraying method and chemical vapor phase precipitation method respectively. The results show that the coating prepared with plasma spraying is more dense, surface flatness is smaller, surface roughness uniformity is better.

AbstractWe demonstrate photoluminescence from self- assembling InGaN quantum dots (QDs), which are artificially fabricated on AlGaN surfaces via metal- organic chemical vapor deposition. InGaN QDs are successfully fabricated by the growth mode transition from step- flow to three dimensional island formation by using anti-surfactant silicon on AlGaN surface. The diameter and height of the fabricated InGaN QDs are estimated to be ˜10nm and ˜5nm, respectively, by an atomic- force- microscope (AFM). Indium mole fraction of InxGal−x N QDs is controlled from x=˜0.22 to ˜0.52 by varying the growth temperature of QDs. Intense photoluminescence is observed even at room temperature from InGaN QDs embedded with the GaN capping layers. In addition, the temperature- dependent energy shift of the photoluminescence peak- energy shows a localization behavior.

We have studied the optical properties of nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si) film deposited by plasma enhancement chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) on porous aluminum structure using, respectively, the Photothermal Deflection Spectroscopy (PDS) and Photoluminescence (PL). The aim of this work is to investigate the influence of anodisation current on the optical properties of the porous aluminum silicon layers (PASL). The morphology characterization studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique has shown that the grain size of (nc-Si) increases with the anodisation current. However, a band gap shift of the energy gap was observed.

Photosystem II (PSII) is different from all other reaction centers in that it splits water to evolve oxygen and hydrogen ions. This unique ability to evolve oxygen is partly due to three oxygen evolving polypeptides (OEPs) associated with the PSII complex. Freeze etching on grana derived insideout membranes revealed that the OEPs contribute to the observed tetrameric nature of the PSIl particle; when the OEPs are removed, a distinct dimer emerges. Thus, the surface of the PSII complex changes dramatically upon removal of these polypeptides. The atomic force microscope (AFM) is ideal for examining surface topography. The instrument provides a topographical view of individual PSII complexes, giving relatively high resolution three-dimensional information without image averaging techniques. In addition, the use of a fluid cell allows a biologically active sample to be maintained under fully hydrated and physiologically buffered conditions. The OEPs associated with PSII may be sequentially removed, thereby changing the surface of the complex by one polypeptide at a time.

AbstractCarbon materials with controlled pore sizes at the nanometer level have been obtained by template methods, chemical vapor desorption, and extraction of metals from carbides. However, to produce porous carbons with controlled pore sizes at the Ångstrom-level, syntheses that are simple, versatile, and reproducible are desired. Here, we report a synthetic method to prepare porous carbon materials with pore sizes that can be precisely controlled at the Ångstrom-level. Heating first induces thermal polymerization of selected three-dimensional aromatic molecules as the carbon sources, further heating results in extremely high carbonization yields (>86%). The porous carbon obtained from a tetrabiphenylmethane structure has a larger pore size (4.40 Å) than those from a spirobifluorene (4.07 Å) or a tetraphenylmethane precursor (4.05 Å). The porous carbon obtained from tetraphenylmethane is applied as an anode material for sodium-ion battery.
