  • Producing a stable catalyst for nanotube growth
    Publication number: 20060210467
    Abstract: A process (40) is provided for preparing a catalyst (20). A catalyst (20) is formed over a substrate (12). A gas (24) comprising hydrogen and carbon is applied to the catalyst (20), wherein a carbon seeding layer (26) is formed on the catalyst (20). Carbon nanotubes (28) may then be grown from the catalyst (20) having the carbon seeding layer thereon (26).
    Type: Application

  • Device including an amorphous carbon layer for improved adhesion of organic layers and method of fabrication
    Patent number: 6992371
    Abstract: A novel device, such as a semiconductor device, a microfluidic device, a surface acoustic wave device an imprint template, or the like, including an amorphous carbon layer for improved adhesion of organic layers and method of fabrication. The device includes a substrate having a surface, an amorphous carbon layer, formed overlying the surface of the substrate, and a low surface energy material layer overlying the surface of the substrate. The device is formed by providing a substrate having a surface, depositing a low surface energy material layer and an amorphous carbon layer overlying the surface of the substrate adjacent the low surface energy material layer using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) or sputtering.
