Abstract Topographic nanomanufacturing with a depth precision down to atomic dimension is of importance for advancement nanoelectronics new functionalities. Here we demonstrate mask-less and chemical-free nanolithography process regio-specific removal layers on single crystalline silicon surface via shear-induced mechanochemical reactions. Since chemical reactions involve only the topmost layer exposed at interface, possible lattice beneath processed area remains intact without subsurface...
In this article, we report a controllable and reproducible approach to prepare highly ordered 2-D hexagonal mesoporous crystalline TiO2-SiO2 nanocomposites with variable Ti/Si ratios (0 infinity). XRD, TEM, N2 sorption techniques have been used systematically investigate the pore wall structure, thermal stability functioned synthetic conditions. The resultant materials are ultra stable (over 900 degrees C), large uniform diameters (approximately 6.8 nm), high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller specific...
Abstract For several decades, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) has been the most widely used planarization method in integrated circuits manufacturing. The final results are affected by many factors related to carrier structure, pad, slurry, and process parameters. As both actions affect effectiveness of CMP, these themselves factors, CMP mechanism is complex a hot research area for years. This review provides basic description development, challenges, key technologies associated with...
This paper presents a novel strategy to synthesize MoO2/carbon nanowires based on organic–inorganic hybrid nanocomposites with nanometre periodic structures. The precursors provide uniform reactions throughout the composites for achieving carbon-hybrid structures and nano-morphology via easy calcination. Through systematic physical characterization including scanning electron microscopy, transmission X-ray powder diffraction, photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman etc., one-dimensional structure...
Friction behavior of aqueous solution at macroscale is quite different from that nanoscale. At macroscale, tribochemistry usually occurs between lubricant and friction surfaces in the running-in process due to a high contact pressure, most such processes can lead reduction. In present work, we reported hydrogen ions played an important role (friction reducing process), which could result coefficient 0.4 0.04 Si(3)N(4) glass macroscale. It found low state are closely dependent on...
Silicon nanowire arrays on silicon substrates can be synthesized with precise orientation depending the crystal of substrate using a vapor–liquid–solid epitaxial growth mechanism. The projections as-grown form rectangular networks (100) (see Figure), parallel straight lines (110) substrates, and triangular (111) substrates.

Nanotribology has been given increasing attention by researchers in pursuing the nature of friction. In present work, an approach that combines supramolecular assembly and nanotribology is introduced. Herein, nanotribological study was carried out on seven template networks [namely, hydrogen bond induced tricarboxylic acids van der Waals force hexaphenylbenzene (HPB) derivatives]. The networks, as well host–guest assemblies molecules different forces, were constructed highly oriented...
To clarify the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) mechanism of Cu in aqueous hydrogen peroxide and glycine, we developed a ReaxFF reactive force field to describe interaction between Cu, slurry (H2O, H2O2, glycine), silica abrasive. Based on this field, used molecular dynamics simulations illustrate chemistry at Cu/silica abrasive interface atom removal during CMP process. Our results indicate that H2O easily chemically adsorbs surface, H2O2 can dissociate into hydroxyl radicals, forming...
Abstract Transparent conductive electrodes (TCEs) are indispensable components of various optoelectronic devices such as displays, touch screen panels, solar cells, and smart windows. To date, the fabrication processes for metal mesh‐based TCEs either costly or having limited resolution throughput. Here, a two‐step surface energy‐directed assembly (SEDA) process to efficiently fabricate high silver meshes is introduced. The SEDA turns from on functionalized substrate with hydrophilic mesh...
Solution-based processes have received considerable attention in the fabrication of electronics and sensors owing to their merits being low-cost, vacuum-free, simple equipment.

Abstract Solution‐based processes are emerging in the fabrication of flexible electronics owing to their cost‐effectiveness, low‐temperature processing capabilities, and vacuum‐free operations. Currently, printing techniques, as most widely used solution‐based processes, suffer from low resolution poor pattern fidelity. Although surface energy‐directed assembly (SEDA) process enables unparalleled fidelity, multilayer application on substrates rarely attempted. Here, a SEDA is for fabricating...
