A two-dimensional model for the gas flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer was coupled to the gas-phase reaction and surface reaction mechanism for the deposition of polycrystalline silicon from trichlorosilane (TCS)-hydrogen system. The model was verified by comparing the simulated growth rate with the experimental and numerical data in the open literature. Computed results in the reactors indicate that the deposition characteristics are closely related to the momentum, thermal and mass boundary layer thickness. To yield higher deposition rate, there should be higher concentration of TCS gas on the substrate, and there should also be thinner boundary layer of HCl gas so that HCl gas could be pushed away from the surface of the substrate immediately.展开更多

In order to explore its genesis, types and distribution of the reservoir sandstones in the eastern zone of this gas field, we focused in our study on the provenance and detailed sedimentary facies of sandstone of the He8 (the eighth part of the Shihezi formation, Permian system) and Shanxil (the first part of the Shanxi formation, Permian system) members, based on core observations, analyses in petrography, granularity and logging. The results show that: 1) the sandstone provenance of Shanxil and He8 in the eastern zone of the Sulige gas field is from the north of the Ordos Basin, characterized by dual directions from the north and northeast. 2) The He8 and Shanxil members were deposited in a fluvial-delta sedimentary system. The He8 was mainly deposited in braided rivers, in- cluding braided channels, channel bars, levee and floodplain sub-environments, whereas the Shanxil Member was deposited in braided rivers and deltas, including braided channels, channel bars, floodplains, tributaries and inter-tributary sub-environments. 3) Sedimentary facies bands migrated in drastic fashion towards the basin from the Shanxil to the He8 Member. Base levels of sedi- mentation generally present a trend of small increases in-amplitude, large decreasing amplitudes and slow and gradual Increases. 4) The continuity of the reservoir sandbodies along the source direction is better than that perpendicular to the direction. Compared with Shanxil, both dimensions and continuity of the sandbodies in He8 are better from which we conclude that it is the most fa- vorable part of the reservoir.展开更多

Here we report the first chemical vapor deposition growth of single- and few-layer MoSe2 nanosheets. By using Se and MoO3 as the chemical vapor supply, we demonstrate that highly crystalline MoSe2 can be directly grown on the 300 nm SiO2/Si substrates to form optically distinguishable single- and multi-layer nanosheets, typically in triangular shaped domains with edge lengths around 30 btm, which can merge into continuous thin films upon further growth. Micro-Raman spectroscopy and imaging was used to probe the thickness-dependent vibrational properties. Photoluminescence spectroscopy demonstrates that MoSe2 monolayers exhibit strong near band edge emission at 1.55 eV, while bilayers or multi-layers exhibit much weaker emission, indicating of the transition to a direct band gap semiconductor as the thickness is reduced to a monolayer.展开更多

Both thermal stress and intrinsic stress are considered to constitute the final residual stress in the model. The deposition process conditions such as deposition temperature, oxygen pressure, and film growth rate are correlated to the full stress model to analyze the final residual stress distribution, and thus the deformation of the deposited multilayer system under different process conditions. Also, the model is numerically realized with in-house built code. A deposition of Ag-Cu multilayer system is simulated with the as-built extended stress model, and the final residual stresses under different deposition conditions are discussed with part of the results compared with experiment from other literature.展开更多

X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that both sides of YBCO film were purely c-axis oriented and highly textured. The co-scan of (005) YBCO and Ф-scan of (103) YBCO yielded full width at half maximum (FWHM) values of 4.9° and 6.6° for one side of double-sided YBCO film, respectively, as well as 4.4° and 6.4° for the other side. The current transportation measurements performed on such double-sided 500 nm-thickness YBCO films showed the self-field critical current density (Jc) at 77 K of 0.6 MA/cm^2 and 1.2 MA/cm^2, respectively. Further research is in the process of exploring new solution to improve the Jc in practice.展开更多

Samples with different thicknesses of Si 3 N 4 and SiO 2 were prepared on Pyrex 7740 glass substrates and characterized by isothermal and high humidity charge decay. The results of experiment approved that the PECVD SiO 2 /Si 3 N 4 double layers electrets on glass substrate has as good chargeability and charge stability in high temperature and high humidity environment as thermal oxidation or APCVD/LPCVD ones on silicon substrates. The experiment results indicated that a Si 3 N 4 layer no less than 50 nm is necessary for good charge stability in high temperature and a Si 3 N 4 layer thicker than 500 nm decreases the chargeability. Even a 2 nm Si 3 N 4 layer is enough to significantly improve the charge stability in high humidity environment. Thick SiO 2 layer can increase the surface potential of electrets under the same charging condition and its charge stability in high temperature. However, the electrets with high surface potential also exhibit poor uniformity of charge stability in high humidity environment.展开更多
