Graphene has attracted tremendous attention for the last a few years due to it fascinating electrical, mechanical, and chemical properties. Up to now, several methods have been developed exclusively to prepare graphene, which include micromechanical cleavage, polycrystalline Ni employing chemical vapor deposition technique, solvent thermal reaction, thermal desorption of Si from SiC substrates, chemical routes via graphite intercalation compounds or graphite oxide. In particular, polycrystalline Ni foil and conventional chemical vapor deposition system have been widely used for synthesis of large-area graphene. [1-3] In this study, synthesis of mono-layer graphene on a Ni foil, the mixing ratio of hydrocarbon ($CH_4$) gas to hydrogen gas, microwave power, and growth time were systemically optimized. It is possible to synthesize a graphene at relatively lower temperature ($500^{\circ}C$) than those (${\sim}1000^{\circ}C$) of previous results. Also, we could control the number of graphene according to the growth conditions. The structural features such as surface morphology, crystallinity and number of layer were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and resonant Raman spectroscopy with 514 nm excitation wavelength. We believe that our approach for the synthesis of mono-layer graphene may be potentially useful for the development of many electronic devices.

Ionic liquids(ILs) have been the most investigated chemicals among green solvents including water, glycerol, supercritical carbon dioxdie($scCO_2$). ILs are attracting organic as well as inorganic chemicals because most ionic liquids' vapor pressures are very low so that ILs are liquids phase at ambient conditions. ILs are composed of various anions and cations, thus chemists can design functionalized solvents and/or catalysts that can be used in specific synthetic reactions by means of combinations of different ions. Many scientists believe ILs being green materials because of its low vapor pressure as well as the flexibility in controlling the chemical and physical properties. In this review the author describes recent development of ILs focused on imidazolium and pyridinium ILs which are being most investigated presently. In order to apply this materials in industrial level, the toxicity matter must be resolved first. In this regard, the author describes recent research trend regarding environmental effects by ILs as well as some meaningful results as well.

A twt -step carbothermal reduction scheme has been employed for the synthesis of SiC whiskers in an Ar or a H2 atmosphere via vapor-solid two-stage and vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism respectively. It has been shown that the whisker growth proceed through the following reaction mechanism in an Ar at-mosphere : SiO2(S)+C(s)-SiO(v)+CO(v) SiO(v)3CO(v)=SiC(s)whisker+2CO2(v) 2C(s)+2CO2(v)=4CO(v) the third reaction appears to be the rate-controlling reaction since the overall reaction rates are dominated by the carbon which is participated in this reaction. The whisker growth proceeded through the following reaction mechaism in a H2 atmosphere : SiO2(s)+C(s)=SiO(v)+CO(v) 2C(s)+4H2(v)=2CH4(v) SiO(v)+2CH4(v)=SiC(s)whisker+CO(v)+4H2(v) The first reaction appears to be the rate-controlling reaction since the overall reaction rates are enhanced byincreasing the SiO vapor generation rate.

Gallium nitride (GaN) nanoparticles are synthesized by the gallium particle trapping effect in a $N_2$ nonthermal plasma with metallic Ga vapor. A proposed method has an advantage of synthesized GaN nanoparticle purity because the gallium vapor from the inductively heated tungsten boat does not contain any impurity source. The synthesized particle size can be controlled by the amount of Ga vapor, which is adjusted using the plasma emission ratio of nitrogen to gallium, owing to the particle trapping effect. The synthesized nanoparticles are investigated by electron microscopy studies. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) studies confirm that the synthesized GaN nanoparticles (10-40 nm) crystallize in a single-phase wurtzite structure. Room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements indicate the band-edge emission of GaN at around 378 nm without yellow emission, which implies that the synthesized GaN nanoparticles have high crystallinity.

We report on synthesis of large-area MoS2 using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Relatively uniform MoS2 are obtained. To fabricate field-effect transistor (FET) devices, MoS2 films are transferred to another SiO2/Si substrate using polystyrene (PS) and patterned using oxygen plasma. In addition, to reduce contact resistance, synthesis of graphene used as channel. Device characteristics are presented and compared with the reported results.

Synthesis of carbon fibers from cotton fiber by pyrolysis process has been described. Synthesis parameters are optimized using Taguchi optimization technique. Synthesized carbon fibers are used for studying hydrogen adsorption capacity using Seivert's apparatus. Transmission electron microscopy analysis and X-ray diffraction of carbon fiber from cotton suggested it to be very transparent type material possessing graphitic nature. Carbon synthesized from cotton fibers under the conditions predicted by Taguchi optimization methodology (no treatment of cotton fiber prior to pyrolysis, temperature of pyrolysis $800^{\circ}C$, Argon as carrier gas and paralyzing time for 2 h) exhibited 7.32 wt% hydrogen adsorption capacity.

Graphene is a two-dimensional sp2 layer material. Despite the short history in the empirical synthesis of the graphene layers, the academic/industrial unique features have brought highly significant interest in research and development related to graphene-related materials. In particular, the electrical and optical performances have been targeted towards pre-existing microelectronicand emerging nanoelectronic applications. The graphene synthesis relies on a variety of processing factors, such as temperature, pressure, and gas ratios involving H2, CH4, and Ar, in addition to the inherent selection of copper substrates. The current work places its emphasis on the role of experimental factors in growing graphene thin films. The thermally-grown graphene layers are characterized using physical/chemical analyses, i.e., four point resistance measurements, Raman spectroscopy, and UV-Visible spectrophotometry. Ultimately, an optimization strategy is proposed in growing high-quality graphene layers well-controlled through empirical factors.

Nano-sized WC powders were synthesized by vapor phase reaction using the precusor of tungsten ethoxide under helium and hydrogen atmosphere. The phases of the powder were varied with reaction Bone and gas flow rate. The powder size was about 30nm in diameter, and the tungsten carbide powder was coated by carbon layer. The synthesis of nano-sized WC powders was promoted as the hydrogen gas flow rate became higher. Inversely, tungsten oxide was formed by increasing the flow rate of helium gas. The synthesized powders were analyzed by XRD, FE-SEM, carbon analyzer etc.

GaN nanowires has much interest as one-dimensional materials for blue light LED. GaN-based materials have been the subject of intensive research for blue light emission and high temperature/high power electronic devices. In this letter, the synthesis of GaN nanowires by the reaction of mixture of GaN nanowires by the reaction of mixture of Ga meta and GaN powder with NH$_3$ using thermal chemical vapor deposition is reported. X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy indicate that those GaN nanowires with hexagonal wurtzite structure were about 60nm in diameter and up to several hundreds of micrometers in length.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have attracted significant attention due to their unique and exotic properties attributed to their low dimensionality. In particular, semiconducting 2D TMDCs such as $MoS_2$, $WS_2$, $MoSe_2$, and $WSe_2$ have been demonstrated to be feasible for various advanced electronic and optical applications. In these regards, process to synthesize high quality 2D TMDCs layers with high reliability, wafer-scale uniformity, controllable layer number and excellent electronic properties is essential in order to use 2D TMDCs in practical applications. Vapor deposition techniques, such as physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition and atomic layer deposition, could be promising processes to produce high quality 2D TMDCs due to high purity, thickness controllability and thickness uniformity. In this article, we briefly review recent research trend on vapor deposition techniques to synthesize 2D TMDCs.
