Tuning the Spatially Controlled Growth, Structural Self-Organizing and Cluster-Assembling of the Carbyne-Enriched Nano-Matrix during Ion-Assisted Pulse-Plasma Deposition

Abstract

Carbyne-enriched nanomaterials are of current interest in nanotechnology-related applications. The properties of these nanomaterials greatly depend on their production process. In particular, structural self-organization and auto-synchronization of nanostructures are typical phenomena observed during the growth and heteroatom-doping of carbyne-enriched nanostructured metamaterials by the ion-assisted pulse-plasma deposition method. Accordingly, fine tuning of these processes may be seen as the key step to the predictive designing of carbyneenriched nano-matrices with improved properties. In particular, we propose an innovative concept, connected with application of the vibrational-acoustic effects and based on universal Cymatics mechanisms. These effects are used to induce vibration-assisted self-organized wave patterns together with the simultaneous manipulation of their properties through an electric field. Interaction between the inhomogeneous electric field distribution generated on the vibrating layer and the plasma ions serves as the additional energizing factor controlling the local pattern formation and self-organization of the nano-structures.

Predictive combining multiple variously hybridized low-dimensional nanocarbons in a single additive for nano-sized energetic materials performance enhancement

“…With taking into account that the 2D-LCC-based nano-matrix are acoustically sensitive nanomaterial, we propose use the predictive fine tuning the nanoarchitecture, vibrational characteristics and heteroatom-doping by using the surface acoustic wave (SAW)-based toolkit, [13]. In particular, we propose to use the technology of the carbyne-enriched nanomaterial growing onto acoustically excited piezoelectric-based substrates.…”

“…Taking into account that the 2D-LCC-based multilayer nano-matrix represents a nanomaterial having acoustic sensitivity, we assisted nano-matrix growth via Rayleigh-type surface acoustic waves, accompanied by patterning phenomena, leading to significant modification of the nanoarchitectures and vibrational characteristics [4]. The nano-matrix growth assisted by surface acoustic waves is combined with pulse plasma doping via atoms of various chemical elements.…”
