High-Quality, Low-Cost Bulk Gallium Nitride Substrates
ADVANCED MANUFACTURING OFFICE High-Quality, Low- Cost Bulk Gallium Nitride Substrates Electrochemical Solution Growth: A Scalable Semiconductor Manufacturing Process The ever-growing demand in the past decade for more energy efficient solid-state lighting and electrical power conversion is leading to a higher demand for wide bandgap semiconductor-based devices, such as gallium nitride (GaN), over traditional silicon (Si)-based devices. High cost and limited availability, how- ever, have hindered the adoption of GaN substrates to date. When utilizing GaN, current LED and power electronic device applications employ GaN epitaxially grown on top of non-GaN substrates. The lattice mismatch between the epitaxial GaN layer and the non-native substrate surface leads to con- siderable stress and high defect densities, ultimately compromising device yield and Conceptual diagram of the ESG reactor.

NJC PAPER Pnictogen bonding with alkoxide cages: which pnictogen is best?† Cite this: New J. Chem., 2019, 43,14305 Henry J. Trubenstein, ‡ Shiva Moaven, ‡ Maythe Vega, Daniel K. Unruh and Anthony F. Cozzolino * Pnictogen bonding is beginning to emerge as a useful supramolecular interaction. The design strategies for these systems are still in the early stages of development and much attention has been focused on the lighter pnictogens. Pnictogen bond donors can have up to three independent sites for binding which can result in triple pnictogen bonding. This has been observed in the self-assembly of antimony alkoxide cages, but not with the lighter congeners. This work reports structural characterization of an analogous arsenic alkoxide cage that engages in a single pnictogen bond and synthetic explorations of Received 14th July 2019, the bismuth congener. DFT calculations are used to evaluate the differences between the structures.

Of the Periodic Table
of the Periodic Table teacher notes Give your students a visual introduction to the families of the periodic table! This product includes eight mini- posters, one for each of the element families on the main group of the periodic table: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Boron/Aluminum Group (Icosagens), Carbon Group (Crystallogens), Nitrogen Group (Pnictogens), Oxygen Group (Chalcogens), Halogens, and Noble Gases. The mini-posters give overview information about the family as well as a visual of where on the periodic table the family is located and a diagram of an atom of that family highlighting the number of valence electrons. Also included is the student packet, which is broken into the eight families and asks for specific information that students will find on the mini-posters. The students are also directed to color each family with a specific color on the blank graphic organizer at the end of their packet and they go to the fantastic interactive table at www.periodictable.com to learn even more about the elements in each family. Furthermore, there is a section for students to conduct their own research on the element of hydrogen, which does not belong to a family. When I use this activity, I print two of each mini-poster in color (pages 8 through 15 of this file), laminate them, and lay them on a big table. I have students work in partners to read about each family, one at a time, and complete that section of the student packet (pages 16 through 21 of this file). When they finish, they bring the mini-poster back to the table for another group to use. -

Received: 6 August 2019; Accepted: 22 August 2019; Published: 26 August 2019 Abstract: Among transition metal carbides and nitrides, zirconium, and hafnium compounds are the most stable and have the highest melting temperatures. Here we review published data on phases and phase equilibria in Hf-Zr-C-N-O system, from experiment and ab initio computations with focus on rocksalt Zr and Hf carbides and nitrides, their solid solutions and oxygen solubility limits. The systematic experimental studies on phase equilibria and thermodynamics were performed mainly 40–60 years ago, mostly for binary systems of Zr and Hf with C and N. Since then, synthesis of several oxynitrides was reported in the fluorite-derivative type of structures, of orthorhombic and cubic higher nitrides Zr3N4 and Hf3N4. An ever-increasing stream of data is provided by ab initio computations, and one of the testable predictions is that the rocksalt HfC0.75N0.22 phase would have the highest known melting temperature. Experimental data on melting temperatures of hafnium carbonitrides are absent, but minimum in heat capacity and maximum in hardness were reported for Hf(C,N) solid solutions. -
Silicon Nitride, a Close to Ideal Ceramic Material for Medical Application
ceramics Review Silicon Nitride, a Close to Ideal Ceramic Material for Medical Application Robert B. Heimann Am Stadtpark 2A, D-02826 Görlitz, Germany; [email protected]; Tel.: +49-3581-667851 Abstract: This topical review describes the salient results of recent research on silicon nitride, a ceramic material with unique properties. The outcome of this ongoing research strongly encourages the use of monolithic silicon nitride and coatings as contemporary and future biomaterial for a variety of medical applications. Crystallographic structure, the synthesis and processing of monolithic structures and coatings, as well as examples of their medical applications that relate to spinal, orthopedic and dental implants, bone grafts and scaffolds, platforms for intelligent synthetic neural circuits, antibacterial and antiviral particles and coatings, optical biosensors, and nano-photonic waveguides for sophisticated medical diagnostic devices are all covered in the research reviewed herein. The examples provided convincingly show that silicon nitride is destined to become a leader to replace titanium and other entrenched biomaterials in many fields of medicine.
