20080187684 - Method for depositing crystalline titania nanoparticles and films: The present invention provides a one-step and room-temperature process for depositing nanoparticles or nanocomposite (nanoparticle-assembled) films of crystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) onto a substrate surface using ultrafast pulsed laser ablation of Titania or metal titanium target. The system includes a pulsed laser with a pulse duration ranging from a few... Agent: Sughrue Mion, PLLC

20080187683 - Resonant infrared laser-assisted nanoparticle transfer and applications of same: A method for depositing particles onto a substrate. In one embodiment, the method providing a plurality of particles in a solvent or a matrix of solvents to form a solution; freezing the solution to form a target having a surface; irradiating the target with a light of a wavelength in...

20080187685 - Method of preparing vertically-aligned carbon nanotube under atmospheric and cold-wall heating treatments and making the same: A carbon nanotube is prepared under a non-vacuum environment. An atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) is processed with an external high frequency source and a perpendicularly-supplied gas material source for a cold-wall heating treatment. The carbon nanotube is thus obtained with a vertically aligned arrangement at a high speed... Agent: Troxell Law Office PLLC
