  2. 1. Fullerene-like carbon nitride thin solid films

    Author : Jörg Neidhardt; Brian C. Holloway; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is to establish synthesis-structure-property- performance relations for nano structured carbon nitride thin solid films. This material consists of bent and frequently intersecting nitrogen-containing graphite basal planes, where nitrogen plays an important role for the initiation of inter-planar cross-links and the induction of curvature via pentagon formation, much like in Buckminster Fullerenes - hence, the terminology "fullerene-like carbon nitride".

  4. 2. Nanostructured carbon-based thin films : prediction and design

    Author : Cecilia Goyenola; Gueorgui K. Gueorguiev; Lars Hultman; Sven Stafström; Yury Gogotsi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; carbon; carbon-based; thin films; fullerene-like; modeling; dft;

    Abstract : Carbon-based thin films are a vast group of materials of great technological importance. Thanks to the different bonding options for carbon, a large variety of structures (from amorphous to nanostructured) can be achieved in the process of film synthesis. READ MORE

  5. 3. Materials science of magnetron sputtered fullerene-like carbon nitride thin films

    Author : Jörg Neidhardt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Carbon nitride (CNx) is a promising compound thin film material for a variety of applications. The nano-structured fullerene-like allotrope in particular exhibits outstanding mechanical proper ties. such as extreme elasticity and toughness. due to a unique microstructure of curved and crosslinked basal planes.

  6. 4. Fullerene-like CNx and CPx Thin Films; Synthesis, Modeling, and Applications

    Author : Andrej Furlan; Lars Hultman; Brian Holloway; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Phosphorus-carbide CPx ; carbon nitride CNx ; thin films; resilient coatings; magnetron sputtering; theoretical modeling; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : This Thesis concerns the development of fullerene-like (FL) carbon nitride (CNx) thin films and the discovery of phosphorus-carbide (CPx) compounds. The work dedicated to CPx include first-principles theoretical simulations of the growth and properties of FL-CPx structures. READ MORE

  7. 5. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of tribofilms enhanced by fullerene-like nanoparticles

    Author : István Zoltán Jenei; Stefan Csillag; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The beneficiary effects of WS2 inorganic fullerene-like nanoparticles in the lubrication industry were shown in recent years. The incorporation of the nanoparticles into lubricants (oils, greases) is however not straightforward. READ MORE
