  • The defect sites on chemical vapor deposition grown graphene are investigated through the selective electrochemical deposition (SED) of Au nanoparticles. For SED of Au nanoparticles, an engineered potential pulse is applied to the working electrode versus the reference electrode, thereby highlighting the defect sites, which are more reactive relative to the pristine surface. Most defect sites decorated by Au nanoparticles are situated along the Cu grain boundaries, implying that the origin of the defects lies in the synthesis of uneven graphene layers on the rough Cu surface.

  • The plasma chemical vapor deposition is one of the most utilized techniques for the diamond growth. As the applications of diamond thin films prepared by plasma chemical vapor deposition(CVD) techniques become more demanding, improved fine-tuning and control of the process are required. The important parameters in diamond film deposition include the substrate temperature, $CO/H_2$gas flow ratio, total gas pressure, and gas excitation power. With the spectroscopic ellipsometry, the substrate temperature as well as the various parameters of the film can be determined without the physical contact and the destructiveness under the extreme environment associated with the diamond film deposition. Through this paper, the important parameters during the diamond film growth using $CO+H_2$are determined and it is shown that $sp^2$ C in the diamond film is greatly reduced.

  • Heteroepitaxial growth of cubic silicon carbide films on Si(001) and Si(111) substrates at temperatures 900-$1000^{\circ}C$ has been achieved by high vacuum chemical vapor deposition using the single precursor 1, 3-disilabutane without carrying out the carbonization process of the substrate surfaces. The deposition temperature range is much lowered compared with conventiontional chemical vapor deposition where separate sources for silicon and carbon are employed. The deposition procedure is quite simple and safe. The qualities of the films were found to be very good judging from the results obtained by various characterization techniques including reflection high energy electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, X-ray pole figure analysis, Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, Auger depth profiling, and transmission electron diffraction.

  • Indium oxide conducting films were dep9sited on Si(100) substrates at various temperatures by liquid delivery metal organic chemical vapor deposition using Indium (III) tris (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3.5-heptanedionato) $(dpm)_3$ precursors. The films deposited at $200{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ were grown with a (111) preferred orientation and exhibit an increase of grain size from 21 to 33nm with increasing deposition temperature. In the range of deposition temperature, there is no metallic indium phase in deposited films.
