Abstract:
There is provided a fabrication method for an AA stacked graphene-diamond hybrid material by converting, through a high temperature treatment on diamond, a diamond surface into graphene. According to the present invention, if various types of diamond are maintained at a certain temperature having a stable graphene phase (approximately greater than 1200° C.) in a hydrogen gas atmosphere, two diamond {111} lattice planes are converted into one graphene plate (2:1 conversion), whereby the diamond surface is converted into graphene in a certain thickness, thus to fabricate the AA stacked graphene-diamond hybrid material.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for fabricating graphene ribbons, comprising: preparing a graphitic material comprising stacked graphene helices; and cutting the graphitic material in a short form by applying energy to the graphitic material; and simultaneously or afterward, decomposing the graphitic material into short graphene ribbons. This method provides a mass production route to graphene ribbons.
Abstract:
Disclosed are DC plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (DC PA-CVD) apparatus operable in the absence of a positive column, a method for depositing a material by DC PA-CVD in the absence of a positive column, and a diamond thin film fabricated thereby. In the method for depositing a material in the absence of a positive column, a discharge is generated between a cathode and an anode disposed to face each other in a reaction chamber by applying a DC voltage therebetween, and introducing reaction gas into the reaction chamber, thereby depositing a material on a substrate mounted on the anode and serving as a part of the anode, wherein the deposition of the material on the substrate is performed under a state that a cathode glow and an anode glow exist in a form of thin layers coating respectively the surfaces of the cathode and the substrate, while a positive column does not exist or is so small as to be negligible. The diamond thin film fabricated by the method is uniform, contains no impurity, and has excellent crystallinity.
Abstract:
A fabrication method for a diamond-coated cemented carbide cutting tool includes electrolytically etching the surface of a cemented carbide cutting tool with a NaOH or KOH aqueous solution or chemically etching the surface of the cemented carbide cutting tool with a KMnO.sub.4 +KOH aqueous solution, and depositing a diamond film on the cemented carbide cutting tool. A stronger etching effect than by using a Murakami solution can be achieved, and no poisonous material is included in the etchant. In addition, disposal of the waste etchant is made simpler, and the adhesion between the diamond film coating and the cemented carbide cutting tool can be strengthened.

A bio-sensor includes a gate dielectric formed on a silicon semiconductor substrate, a gate electrode of a conductive diamond film formed on the gate dielectric, probe molecules bonded on the gate electrode for detecting biomolecules, and source/drain regions formed on the semiconductor substrate at the sides of the gate electrode. The gate electrode is a comb shape or a lattice shape.

The present invention relates to a method for depositing a cBN thin film on a substrate to obtain an abrasive material by physical vapor deposition carried out under an atmosphere composed of an inert gas and hydrogen. The abrasive produced by the inventive method comprises the cBN thin film attached firmly to the substrate, which has excellent hardness and durability.

Disclosed herein are a graphene hybrid material and a method for preparing the graphene hybrid material, the graphene hybrid material comprising: a matrix having lattice planes disconnected on a surface thereof; and layers of graphene which are epitaxially grown along the lattice planes disconnected on the surface of the matrix such that the layers of graphene are oriented perpendicularly to the matrix, and which are spaced apart from each other and layered on the matrix in the same shape. The graphene hybrid material can be usefully used in the fields of next-generation semiconductor devices, biosensors, electrochemical electrodes and the like.
Abstract:
Disclosed is AA′ graphite with a new stacking feature of graphene, and a fabrication method thereof. Graphene is stacked in the sequence of AA′ where alternate graphene layers exhibiting the AA′ stacking are translated by a half hexagon (1.23 Å). AA′ graphite has an interplanar spacing of about 3.44 Å larger than that of the conventional AB stacked graphite (3.35 Å) that has been known as the only crystal of pure graphite. This may allow the AA′ stacked graphite to have unique physical and chemical characteristics.
