In this study, a novel method for selective growth of CNTs was proposed by using the technology of self-assembly monolayers (SAMs) and the Fe-assisted CNTs growth. The Si wafers with the a : Si/Si3N4 layer patterns were first prepared by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD)and lithography techniques to act as the substrates for selective deposition of SAMs. The selectivity of SAMs from APTMS solution (N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxsilane) is based on its greater reactivity of head group on a-Si than Si3N4 films. The areas of pattern with SAMs will first chelate the Fe3+ ions by their diamine-terminated group. The Fe3+ ions were then consolidated to become Fe-hydroxides in sodium boron hydride solution to form the Fe-hydroxides pattern. Finally, the Fe-hydroxides pattern was pretreated in H plasma to become a well-distributed Fe nano-particles on the surface, and followed by CNTs deposition using Fe as catalyst in a microwave plasma-chemical vapor deposition (MP-CVD) system to become the CNTs pattern. The products in each processing step, including microstructures and lattice images of CNTs, were characterized by contact angle measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), XPS, Auger spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high resolution TEM (HRTEM)deposition. The results show that the main process parameters include the surface activation process and its atmosphere, consolidation time and temperature, H plasma pretreatment. The function of each processing step will be discussed.展开更多

文摘The electrochemical behavior of trifluoperazine at decanethiol self-assembledmonolayer (SAM) modified gold electrodes (i. e. C_(10) H_(21) SH/Au) has been studied,Trifluoperazine can effectively accumulate on C_(10) H_(21) SH/Au electrodes and generate asensitive anodic peak at about 0.63 V (vs. SCE) in 0.05 mol/L pH 9.4 Na_2 B_4 O_7 buffer solution.Under the selected conditions, the anodic peak current was linear to trifluoperazine concentrationin the range of 5.0 X 10^(-7)-3.O X 10^(-3) mol/Lwith correlation coefficient of 0.997, thedetection limit was 3.0 X 10^(-5) mol/L. This method was applied to the determination oftrifluoperazine in drug samples and the recovery was 97.3%-104.0% It was found that sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) could make the anodic peak current increase. In the presence of SDS, the peak at about0.63 V turned into two peaks, resulting from the change of the electrochemical mechanism.
文摘Self assembled monolayers (SAMs) of to-mercapto methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)(MPEG) on gold electrode were used as a means to detect dopamine. Dopamine (DA) had good response at the MPEG film electrode and ascorbic acid (AA) was repelled from the SAMs. TheMPEG film is a biocompatible film, there was no adsorption of biosample and no inactivation atelectrode surface when it was used to detect DA in biosamples.
