A seed substrate is placed to face a formation substrate, and then a gas containing silicon is introduced and chemical vapor deposition is performed. There is no particular limitation on a kind of a material used for the formation substrate as long as the material can withstand the temperature at which the reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition is performed. A group of silicon whiskers which does not include a seed atom can be grown directly on and in contact with the formation substrate. Further, the substrate provided with the group of whiskers can be applied to a solar cell, a lithium ion secondary battery, and the like, by utilizing surface characteristics of the group of whiskers.

A formation method of a silicon film which contributes to improvements in cycle characteristics and an increase in charge/discharge capacity and can be used as an active material layer is provided. In addition, a manufacturing method of a power storage device including the silicon film is provided. The formation method is as follows. A crystalline silicon film is formed over a conductive layer by an LPCVD method. The supply of a source gas is stopped and heat treatment is performed on the silicon film while the source gas is exhausted. The silicon film is grown to have whisker-like portions by an LPCVD method while the source gas is supplied into the reaction space. A power storage device is manufactured using, as an active material layer included in a negative electrode, the silicon film grown to have whisker-like portions.

An amorphous semiconductor layer is formed over a first single crystal semiconductor layer provided over a glass substrate or a plastic substrate with an insulating layer therebetween. The amorphous semiconductor layer is formed by a CVD method at a deposition temperature of higher than or equal to 100° C. and lower than or equal to 275° C. with use of a silane-based gas not diluted. Heat treatment is performed so that the amorphous semiconductor layer solid-phase epitaxially grows. In such a manner, an SOI substrate including a thick single crystal semiconductor layer is manufactured.

An electrode for a power storage device with less deterioration due to charge and discharge and a power storage device using the electrode are provided. In the electrode for a power storage device and the power storage device, a region including a metal element which functions as a catalyst is selectively provided over a current collector, and then, an active material layer is formed. By selectively providing the region including the metal element, a whisker can be effectively generated in the active material layer over the current collector, and the whisker generation region can be controlled. Accordingly, the discharge capacity can be increased and the cycle characteristics can be improved.

It is an object to improve performance of a power storage device, such as cycle characteristics. A power storage device includes a current collector and a crystalline semiconductor layer including a whisker, which is formed on and in close contact with the current collector. Separation of the crystalline semiconductor layer is suppressed by an increase of adhesion, whereby cycle characteristics in which a specific capacity of a tenth cycle number with respect to a first cycle number is greater than or equal to 90% is realized. In addition, cycle characteristics in which a specific capacity of a hundredth cycle number with respect to a first cycle number is greater than or equal to 70% is realized.

A bicycle handlebar clamp assembly has a handlebar clamp, a fixing nut, and a fixing bolt. The fixing nut includes a threaded bore having a bolt entrance opening and a bolt exit opening. The fixing nut defines a bolt shaft receiving space disposed adjacent the bolt exit opening. The fixing bolt includes a head and a shaft extending from the head. The shaft has a non-threaded portion disposed between two threaded portions. One of threaded portions is disposed closer to the head of the fixing bolt than the other threaded portion. The threaded portions are dimensioned to threadedly engage the threaded bore of the fixing nut. The non-threaded portion has a axial length that is greater than the axial length of the threaded bore of the fixing nut.

摘要:
To form graphene to a practically even thickness on an object having an uneven surface or a complex surface, in particular, an object having a surface with a three-dimensional structure due to complex unevenness, or an object having a curved surface. The object and an electrode are immersed in a graphene oxide solution, and voltage is applied between the object and the electrode. At this time, the object serves as an anode. Graphene oxide is attracted to the anode because of being negatively charged, and deposited on the surface of the object to have a practically even thickness. A portion where graphene oxide is deposited is unlikely coated with another graphene oxide. Thus, deposited graphene oxide is reduced to graphene, whereby graphene can be formed to have a practically even thickness on an object having surface with complex unevenness.
