The effect of deposition time in arc ion plating on surface properties of the TiN-coated SM45C steel is presented in this paper. The surface roughness, micro-particle, micro-hardness, coated thickness, atomic distribution of TiN, and adhesion strength are measured for various deposition times. It has been shown that the deposition time has a considerable effect on the micro-hardness, the coated thickness, and the atomic distribution of TiN of the SM45C steels but that it has little influence on the surface roughness and adhesion strength.

The application of focused ion beam (FIB) depends on the optimal interaction of the operation parameters between operating parameters which control beam and samples on the stage during the FIB deposition process. This deposition process was investigated systematically in C precursor gas. Under the fine beam conditions (30kV, 40nm beam size, etc), the effect of considered process parameters - dwell time, beam overlap, incident beam angle to tilted surface, minimum frame time and pattern size were investigated from deposition results by the design of experiment. For the process analysis, influence of the parameters on FIB-CVD process was examined with respect to dimensions and constructed shapes of single and multi- patterns. Throughout the single patterning process, optimal conditions were selected. Multi-patterning deposition were presented to show the effect of on-stage parameters. The analysis have provided the sequent beam scan method and the aspect-ratio had the most significant influence for the multi-patterning deposition in the FIB processing. The bitmapped scan method was more efficient than the one-by-one scan type method for obtaining high aspect-ratio (Width/Height > 1) patterns.

In this paper, CdS thin films, which were widey used window layer of the CdS/CdTe and the CdS/$CuInSe_2$ heterojunction solar cell, were grown by chemical bath deposition, and effects of temperature of reaction solution on the structural properties were investigated. Cadmium acetate and thiourea were used as cadmium and sulfur source, respectively. And ammonium acetate was used as the buffer solution. The reaction velocity was increased with increasing temerature of reaction solution. For temperature <= $85^{\circ}C$, as increasing temperature of solution, deposition rate of CdS films was increased by ion-by-ion reaction in the substrate surface, and the crystallinity of the films was improved. However, for temperature <= $55^{\circ}C$, deposition rate was decreased resulting from smaller Cd2+ ion, and the grain size was decreased.

Transition metal oxide materials have attracted widespread attention as Li-ion battery electrode materials owing to their high theoretical capacity and good Li storage capability, in addition to various nanostructured materials. Here, we fabricated a CoO Li-ion battery in which Co nanoparticles (NPs) are deposited into a current collector through electrophoretic deposition (EPD) without binding and conductive agents, enabling us to focus on the intrinsic electrochemical properties of CoO during the conversion reaction. Through optimized Co NP synthesis and electrophoretic deposition (EPD), CoO Li-ion battery with 630 mAh/g was fabricated with high cycle stability, which can potentially be used as a test platform for a fundamental understanding of conversion reaction.

The application of focused ion beam (FIB) technology in micro/nano machining has become increasingly popular. Its use in micro/nano machining has advantages over contemporary photolithography or other micro/nano machining technologies such as small feature resolution, the ability to process without masks and being accommodating for a variety of materials and geometries. This paper was carried out some experiments and verifications of mechanism on FIB-CVD using SMI8800 made by Seiko. FIB-CVD has in fact proved to be commercially useful for repair processes because the beam can be focused down to 0.05$\mu\textrm{m}$ dimensions and below and because the same tool can be used to sputter off material with sub-micrometer precision simply by turning off the gas ambient. Recently the chemical vapour deposition induced ion beam has been required more deposition rate and accurate pattern because of trying to manufacture many micro and nano parts. Therefore this paper suggested the optimization parameters and discussed some mechanism of chemical vapour deposition induced ion beam on FIB-CVD for simple pattern.

We investigate nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment on ion-beam exposed ZnO films. ZnO is optically transparent material in the visible range. We optimized the deposition parameters such as deposition temperature and gas ratio for high transmittance and resistivity. Using ion-beam treated ZnO films, LC cells are fabricated and the conditions such as exposure energy and time for uniform alignment are found. The NLC molecules align parallel to the ion-beam exposure direction. The electro-optic and response characteristics show the possibility of application of this method in liquid crystal display.

Highly transparent and conducting tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) films were deposited on polycarbonate substrate by ion-assited deposition. Low substrate temperature (<10$0^{\circ}C$) was maintained during deposition to prevent the polycarbonate substrate from be deformed. The influence of ion beam energy, ion current density, and tin doping, on the structural, electrical and optical properties of deposited films was investigated. Indium oxide and tin-doped indium oxide (9 wt% SnO2) sources were evaporated with assisting ionized oxygen in high vacuum chamber at a pressure of 2$\times$10-5 torr and deposition temperature was varied from room temperature to 10$0^{\circ}C$. Oxygen gas was ionized and accelerated by cold hallow-cathode type ion gun at oxygen flow rate of 1 sccm(ml/min). Ion bea potential and ion current of oxygen ions was changed from 0 to 700 V and from 0.54 to 1.62 $\mu$A. The change of microstructure of deposited films was examined by XRD and SEM. The electrical resistivity and optical transmittance were measured by four-point porbe and conventional spectrophotometer. From the results of spectrophotometer, both the refractive index and the extinction coefficient were derived.

Effects of ion implantation on the adhesion strength of DLC film as a function of ion doses and implanted energies were investigated. Ti ions were implanted on the Si-wafer substrates followed by DLC coating using ion beam deposition method. Adhesion strength of DLC films were determined by scratch adhesion tester. Morphologies and compositional variations at the different ion energies and doses were observer by Laser Microscope and Auger Electron Spectroscopy, respectively. From results of scratch test, the adhesion strength of films was improved as increasing ion implanted energy, however there was no significant evidence with ion dose.

In this paper, ion beam technology was investigated through the published papers. Ion beam technology is mainly used by the focused ion beams. There are two different types of application methods. One method is to remove the material from the substrate, the other one is to deposit the materials on the surface of the substrate or specimen. Based on the literature review there are 1.5 times more published research papers related to the deposition than those of the removal.

Titanium oxide films were prepared by ion beam enhanced deposition where the films were synthesized by deposition titianium atoms and simultaneously bombarding with xenon ion beam at an energy of 40 keV in an $O_2$ environ,ent. Structure and composition of titanium oxide films were investigated by X-ray Doffractopm (XRD) Ritjerfprd Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and X-ray Diffraction(XRD) Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) The results show that thestructure of the prepared films exhibit a rutile phase structure wit high(200) orientation and the O/Ti ratio of the titanium oxide films was about 2:1 XPS anlysis shows that $Ti^{2+},Ti^{3+}\;and\;Ti^{4+}$ chemical states exist on the titanium oxide films. the blood compatibility of the titanium oxide films was studied by measurements of blood clotting time and platelet adhesion. The results show that the anticoagulation property of titanium oxide films improved significantly and better than that of LTI-carbon which was widely used to fabricate artificial heart valve.
