Sessions orales concernant le carbone amorphe,
les nanotubes

• Growth and Nucleation, 5 exp.
• Spongy carbon (Barborini, Univ. Milano Italy)
• produced by a pulsed µplasma cluster source with
  catalyst. Fully covalent in 3D. Nanostructured
  carbon with fully sp2 networks
• Nanotubes, 4 exp. //
• Electronic properties (Louie Univ. Berkeley USA)
• role of catalyst (Alexandrou, Univ. Cambridge,
  UK)
• study of the shape and structure of the catalyst
  (Ni) - PECVD
• Raman spectra (Ando, Tokyo Univ.)
• µraman, polarized raman, and Surface-enhance
  resonant raman (SERS) techniques used to study
  MWNT
• Nanotubes to DLC, 6 exp. //
• transformation of graphite to diamond under
  particle irradiation (Banhart, Univ. Ulm,
  Germany)
• by electron irradiation from self compression of
  carbon onions in graphite
• CNT to diamond (Yusa, Japan)
• nanocrystalline diamond compacts from MWCNT under
  high pressure and high temperature. Reducing the
  transition temperature to diamond

4

• Density control (Choi, Samsung Korea)
• study if diameter and distribution of Ni
  nanoparticles - correlation with Ni film
  thickness - variation of size and density of Ni
  particles using NH3 plasma pre-treatment
• sp3 formation (Robertson, Cambridge Univ.)
• 3 state model sp2 and sp3 sites and intersitial
  sites. Influence of the growth temperature
• XPS UPS taC, a-C (Reinke, Univ. Gottingen
  Germany)
• importance of the sp2 surface layer.
• DLC, 6 exp. //
• Density of states (Fanchini, Torino, Italy)
• Raman CNx (Ferrari Univ Cambridge)
• no direct CN,NN,NH contributions are detectable
  in the D and G region of the Raman spectra -
  effect of N is indirect via the modification of
  the clustering of the sp2 phase
• IR (CNx) ( Rodil,Univ. Mexico)
• effect of N on IR peak intensity polarisation
  of sp2 phase induced by the N terminal atoms
• Field Emission, 5 exp.
• Conductivity measurement and field emission
  measurement of sp2 tracks induced by ion
  bombardment of DLC films (Zollondz Berlin,
  Germany)
• Nitrides, 6 exp. cBN, AlGaN/AlN mirrors, BCN
• low dielectric contant film of BCN by PACVD (Tai
  , Osaka, Japan)
