The adhesion strength and deuterium permeation property of SiC films synthesized by magnetron sputtering

TL;DR: Silicon carbide films were synthesized at varied temperatures by radio frequency magnetron sputtering to improve the tritium permeation resistance of 316L stainless steel as discussed by the authors. But the results showed that SiC films were uniform and amorphous.

Silicon quantum wire array fabrication by electrochemical and chemical dissolution of wafers

TL;DR: In this paper, free standing Si quantum wires can be fabricated without the use of epitaxial deposition or lithography using electrochemical and chemical dissolution steps to define networks of isolated wires out of bulk wafers.

Porous silicon formation: A quantum wire effect

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a two-dimensional quantum confinement (quantum wire) in the very narrow walls between the pores not only explains the change in band gap energy but also may also explain the dissolution mechanism that leads to porous silicon formation.

Visible photoluminescence from nanocrystallite Ge embedded in a glassy SiO 2 matrix: Evidence in support of the quantum-confinement mechanism

TL;DR: Broadband photoluminescence spectra are observed in the visible wavelength range at room temperature, and they exhibit pronounced blueshifts of the peak energies and broadening of the PL spectra, which can be correlated to the change in the size.
