Abstract:Oxygen plasma is crucial to many atomic layer deposition (ALD) processes, and O( 3 P) radicals play a significant role in terms of reactivity and surface modification. In situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), residual gas analysis mass spectrometry (RGA-MS), and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations were used to study the free-radical-assisted ALD of boron oxide (B 2 O 3 ) films on Si( 100) using trimethyl borate [B(OCH 3 ) 3 ] and mixed O( 3 P)/O 2 effluents at room temperature at varying lev… Show more
“…2e, for 2B SC83 particles, a small and broad B 1s peak occurs around 192.0 eV. It is lower than the B 1s peak of B 2 O 3 at 192.6–193.0 eV, 41–43 but higher than the B 1s peak of LiBO x at 190.9–191.8 eV, 44–46 which indicates that B 2 O 3 and LiBO x coexist on the surface of the 2B SC83 particles. The formation of LiBO x is attributed to B 2 O 3 ALD on the surface LiOH.…”
Ni-rich LiNixCoyMn1−x−yO2 cathode (x ≥ 0.6) shows weak rate capability due to its deleterious surface lithium impurities and lattice defects. Herein, uniform ultrathin B2O3 coatings built by atomic layer deposition...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
