Book Description
Written by leading experts in the field, this practical reference handbook offers an up-to-date, critical survey of the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of nonmetals, a key technology in semiconductor electronics, finishing, and corrosion protection. The basics necessary for any CVD process are discussed in the introduction. In the following chapters, precursor requirements, with an emphasis on materials chemistry, common structures of reactants and substrates, as well as reaction control are discussed for a broad range of compositions including superconducting, conducting, semiconducting, insulating and structural materials. Technological issues, such as reactor geometries and operation parameters, are assessed and the viability of the method, both technically and economically, is compared with other techniques for the preparation of thin films. Relevant materials and technical data are collected in tables throughout. An extensive glossary, list of abbreviations and acronyms, and over 1400 references round off this impressive work. The 'CVD of Nonmetals' offers a stimulating combination of basic concepts and practical applications. Materials scientists, solid-state and organometallic chemists, physicists, engineer, as well as graduate students will find this book of enomous value.

Book Description
Atomic layer deposition, formerly called atomic layer epitaxy, was developed in the 1970s to meet the needs of producing high-quality, large-area fl at displays with perfect structure and process controllability. Nowadays, creating nanomaterials and producing nanostructures with structural perfection is an important goal for many applications in nanotechnology. As ALD is one of the important techniques which offers good control over the surface structures created, it is more and more in the focus of scientists. The book is structured in such a way to fi t both the need of the expert reader (due to the systematic presentation of the results at the forefront of the technique and their applications) and the ones of students and newcomers to the fi eld (through the first part detailing the basic aspects of the technique). This book is a must-have for all Materials Scientists, Surface Chemists, Physicists, and Scientists in the Semiconductor Industry.

Book Description
Carbon Based Nanomaterials for Advanced Thermal and Electrochemical Energy Storage and Conversion presents a comprehensive overview of recent theoretical and experimental developments and prospects on carbon-based nanomaterials for thermal, solar and electrochemical energy conversion, along with their storage applications for both laboratory and industrial perspectives. Large growth in human populations has led to seminal growth in global energy consumption, hence fossil fuel usage has increased, as have unwanted greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, which results in critical environmental concerns. This book discusses this growing problem, aligning carbon nanomaterials as a solution because of their structural diversity and electronic, thermal and mechanical properties. - Provides an overview on state-of-the-art carbon nanomaterials and key requirements for applications of carbon materials towards efficient energy storage and conversion - Presents an updated and comprehensive review of recent work and the theoretical aspects on electrochemistry - Includes discussions on the industrial production of carbon-based materials for energy applications, along with insights from industrial experts
