Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only! Grab it Explore the fundamentals of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) in this comprehensive 1.5-hour lecture from the NACK - Nano-Educators Topical Seminar Series. Delve into Low Pressure CVD (LPCVD), typical deposition system designs, and the two modes of deposition: thin films (2D nanoscale materials) and nanowires (1D nanoscale materials). Learn about LPCVD reactors, automation processes, and the intricacies of Vapor Solid (VS) and Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth mechanisms. Discover the advantages and disadvantages of VS LPCVD thin films, catalyst selection for VLS growth, and potential applications such as silicon nanowires for bio-scaffolding. Gain insights into surface reactions, growth sequences, and rate-limiting steps in nanomaterial synthesis through this in-depth presentation by Terry Kuzma from Pennsylvania State University.
