Two-Dimensional Nanoparticle Cluster Formation in Supercritical Fluid CO2
Supercritical fluid carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) is capable of depositing nanoparticles in small structures of silicon substrates because of its gas-like penetration, liquid-like solvation abilities, and near-zero surface tension. In nanometer-sized shallow wells on silicon surface, formation of two-dime...

Zusammenfassung: | Supercritical fluid carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) is capable of depositing nanoparticles in small structures of silicon substrates because of its gas-like penetration, liquid-like solvation abilities, and near-zero surface tension. In nanometer-sized shallow wells on silicon surface, formation of two-dimensional (2D) monolayer metal nanoparticle (NP) clusters can be achieved using the sc-CO2 deposition method. Nanoparticles tend to fill nanostructured holes first, and then, if sufficient nanoparticles are available, they will continue to cover the flat areas nearby, unless defects or other surface imperfections are available. In addition, SEM images of two-dimensional gold (Au) nanoparticle clusters formed on a flat silicon surface with two to a dozen or more of the nanoparticles are provided to illustrate the patterns of nanoparticle cluster formation in sc-CO2 |
