Abstract:
The effect of SiC nanoparticle dispersion was investigated for microstructure change and mechanical properties of Sn-Bi electroplated alloys. The diameters of SiC nanoparticle in this study were 45-55 nm. The SiC nanoparticles were mixed with Sn-Bi electroplating and then the nanoparticles were dispersed with ultrasonic vibrator. After the dispersion, the SiC dispersed Sn-Bi alloys were electroplated on Cu deposited Si wafer. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the sample were evaluated by FE-TEM, FE-SEM, EDS, and shear tester. For TEM observation, the specimens were prepared by ultramicrotome and FIB. The SiC nanoparticles were well-dispersed in Sn-Bi alloy. SiC particles were located near grain boundaries or grain inside. The average grain size of the solder alloy was decrease about 30% compared with the grain size of Sn-Bi alloy prepared in the same condition. Due to the grain refinement and dispersion hardening by SiC nanoparticles, the SiC dispersed Sn-Bi alloy is expected to obtain high reliability and joining strength when it applied to interconnection materials.

Abstract:
Solar cells with 3C-SiC nanoparticles embedded in the Si were investigated by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Several sizes of SiC nanoparticles were used as the intermediate layer for the solar cell. The Si thin films showed the formation of micro- and nanocrystallites on the SiC nanoparticle sites, which play an important role of heating block as a nanosubstrate. The Raman spectra revealed that the SiC nanoparticles were embedded in mixed phases of amorphous and nanocrystalline Si. Compared to the conventional solar cell sample, the photoreflectance was significantly reduced in the UV/visible spectral region due to the presence of the embedded 3C-SiC nanoparticles. The Si nanocrystals formed by the thin film deposition played an important role in reducing the photoreflectance within the visible to infrared spectral zones. Furthermore, the SiC nanoparticles contributed less in the photoabsorption at a longer infrared spectral zone wavelength of 1200 nm.

SiC nanoparticles were treated by hydrofluoric acid (HF) and then put into the formulation of tread compounds of tire. After being mixed fully in the open mill and vulcanized in the sulfuration machine, some rubber nanocomposites filled with SiC nanoparticles were finally prepared out. The SiC nanoparticle reinforced rubber composites were observed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). It was found that SiC nanoparticles show good uniformity of dispersion and unobvious agglomeration of particles in rubber matrix after short-time treatment by HF, while they show bad uniformity of dispersion and obvious agglomeration of particles in rubber matrix after long-time treatment by HF.

Abstract:
SiC nanopowder has been formed using an original technological approach based on grinding of bulk porous SiC nanostructures. The initial porous SiC nanostructures were obtained by anodization of n+-type 4H-SiC substrate in HF/Ethanol solution under UV illumination. Large single SiC nanoparticles (~ 30 nm in diameter) constituting the nanopowder have a porous structure which can be clearly visible. On the other hand, small single SiC nanoparticles (~ 4 nm in diameter) exhibit a clear crystalline structure. A broad and very intense luminescence band (400 – 900 nm) provided from the nanopowder corresponds to the radiative processes involving nanoparticle surface states. A smaller photoluminescence peak centred at 358 nm may correspond to radiative recombination of the photogenerated excitons confined in the individual and spatially separated 4HSiC nanoparticles.

Abstract:
Understanding the structure–property relations for metal matrix nanocomposites reinforced with nanoparticles is a key factor for a reliable and optimal design of such new material systems. In the present study, coefficient of thermal expansion of silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticle-reinforced aluminum (Al) matrix nanocomposites is predicted using a three-dimensional unit cell based micromechanical approach. The model takes into account the aluminum carbide (Al4C3) interphase region formed due to the reaction between SiC nanoparticles and surrounding Al matrix. The effects of some critical parameters, including volume fraction and diameter of SiC nanoparticles, interphase features such as geometry and material properties on the coefficient of thermal expansion of Al nanocomposite are extensively investigated. The obtained results clearly reveal the high influence of the interphase region on the coefficient of thermal expansion of Al nanocomposite. Based on the simulation results, the coefficient of thermal expansion of Al nanocomposite nonlinearly decreases with the increase in the interphase thickness or decreasing SiC nanoparticles diameter. Furthermore, the role of interphase in the thermal expansion behavior of Al nanocomposite becomes more prominent with the reduction in the nanoparticle diameter. Also, the coefficient of thermal expansion of Al nanocomposite linearly decreases as SiC nanoparticle volume fraction increases.

Abstract:
The effects of SiC-nanoparticle and Si3N4-whisker additions on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of Si3N4 were investigated. The addition of SiC nanoparticles suppressed Si3N4 grain growth, leading to an improvement in the flexural strength. On the other hand, Si3N4 whiskers in the specimen promoted the formation of large elongated grains, which were found to be beneficial to the fracture toughness of the material. When both SiC nanoparticles and Si3N4 whiskers were added concurrently, large grains were formed in fine matrix grains. The microstructure of Si3N4 was controlled by adjusting the relative concentrations of SiC nanoparticles and the Si3N4 whiskers added. These compositional and microstructural variations of the Si3N4 had significant influence on the mechanical properties, such as strength, fracture toughness, R-curve behavior, and high-temperature strength.

Abstract:
The effects of an α-Al2O3 nanoparticle filler in the SiC matrix on the mechanical properties and failure mechanism of the unidirectional, laminated carbon fiber-reinforced SiC composites were investigated in this work. First, α-Al2O3 nanoparticles were added to the carbon fiber bundles using a slurry impregnation method, and then the Cf/SiC composite with an α-Al2O3 nanoparticle filler (Cf/SiC-Al2O3) was fabricated using a precursor infiltration and pyrolysis method. The microstructure of the Cf/SiC-Al2O3 composite showed chemical compatibility between the α-Al2O3 and the pyrolysis SiC. The Cf/SiC-Al2O3 composite with a low porosity of ~6.67% achieved a good flexural strength of 629.3 MPa and a good fracture toughness of 25.2 MPa·m1/2. The interlaminar shear strength of the Cf/SiC-Al2O3 composite was 11.7 MPa. The SiC-Al2O3 matrix also presented a considerable Young’s modulus of 138.2 ± 8.66 GPa and hardness of 10.3 ± 1.03 GPa. Further analysis indicated that the good mechanical properties with the addition of an α-Al2O3 filler were not only related to the dense matrix and the improvement of the mechanical properties of the matrix. They also originated from the thermal residual compressive stress in the SiC matrix close to the α-Al2O3 nanoparticles caused by the thermal expansion mismatch, which could reflect and close the cracks in the matrix. The findings of this study provide more methods for designing new composites exhibiting a good performance.

Full text
Abstract:
Silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) were deposited on the surface of bulk Nitrogen-Boron co-doped 6H silicon carbide (SiC), and the Ag NPs were observed to induce localized surface plasmons (LSP) resonances on the SiC substrate, which was expected to improve the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of the emissions of the donor-acceptor pairs of the SiC substrate. Room-temperature measurements of photoluminescence (PL), transmittance and time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) were applied to characterize the LSP resonances. Through the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation of the LSP resonance of an Ag nanoparticle on the SiC substrate, it is predicted that when the diameter of the cross section on the xy plane of the Ag nanoparticle is greater than 225 nm, the LSP starts to enhance the PL intensity. With implementation of a 3rd order exponential decay fitting model to the TRPL results, it is found that the average minority carrier lifetime of the SiC substrate decreased.

Abstract:
The effect of volume fraction of SiC nanoparticles on the corrosion resistance of the SiCp/Al metal matrix composites (MMCs) in 3.5 wt.% NaCl aqueous solution were investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that pitting susceptibility is about the same for the nanocomposites and the correspondingly unreinforced matrix metal Al, and the corrosion potentials of the MMCs are about 50 mV-60 mV more positive than that of the unreinforced Al, and is independent of the volume fraction of SiC nanoparticles. The corrosion resistance for the nanocomposite slightly decreases when the volume fraction increases due to both SiC nanoparticle agglomeration and promoting galvanic corrosion between SiC and Al.

Abstract:
Graphene has been shown to be very powerful as a transducer in many biosensor applications due to its high sensitivity. This enables smaller surfaces and therefore less material consumption when producing sensors and concequently cheaper and more portable sensors compared to the commercially available sensors today. The electrical properties of graphene are very sensitive to gas exposure why presence of molecules or small changes in concentration could easily be detected when using graphene as a sensing layer. Graphene is sensitive towards many molecules and in order to detect and possibly identify gas molecules the surface needs to be functionalized. The intention of this project was to use nanoparticles (NPs) to further increase sensitivity and specificity towards selected molecules and also enable biofunctionalization of the NPs, and by that tune the electrical properties of the graphene. This study proposes the use of Fe3O4 and TiO2 NPs to enable sensitive detection of volatile gases and possibly further functionalization of the NPs using biomolecules as a detecting agent in a liquid-phasebiosensor application. The interaction between graphene and NPs have been investigated using several surface charactarization methods and electrical measurements for detection of gaseous molecules and also molecules in a liquid solution. The characterizing methods used are XPS, AFM with surface-potential mapping and Raman spectroscopy with reflectance mapping in order to investigate the NPs interaction with the graphene surface. Sensors where manufactured for gas-phase detection of CO, formaldehyde, benzene and NH3 specifically and display differences in sensitivity and behavior of the Fe3O4 and TiO2 NPs respectively. For liquid measurements the difference in behavior in two buffers was investigated using an in-house flow-cell setup. The surface charecterizing measurements indicated that just a small difference could be found between the two NPs, however a significant change in sensor response could be detected as a function of coverage. The liquid and gas-phase measurements rendered information on differences in sensitivity between the NPs and between analytes where TiO2 showed a higher level of sensitivity towards most of the gases investigated. Both Fe3O4 and TiO2 NP coated graphene showed capability to detect formaldehyde and benzene down to 50 ppb and 5 ppb respectively. The sensitive gas detection could help protecting individuals being exposed to a hazardous level of volatile gases if concentrations increase rapidly or at a long term exposure with lower concentrations, improving saftey and health where these gases are present.

Abstract:
Composite coatings have great potential due to the possibility to combine properties of two different materials in one coating. This way, new surface properties can be tailored and applied to any material's surface. Among different manufacturing routes, electrodeposition has the biggest potential in creating composite metal matrix coatings, especially nanocomposites. Nevertheless, there is a knowledge gap between the deposition of composite coatings in laboratory conditions, described in the literature, and those that are now in place on an industrial level. While micro-composites have been industrialised for about ten years, the production of Ni/SiC nanocomposite coatings by electroplating is still far from an industrial manufacturing floor. This is due to the lack of understanding of the mechanisms of nanoparticles codeposition leading to scattering results. The production of nanocomposite coatings is much more sensitive to the process parameters compared to microcomposite. The correlation between parameters and their influence on the codeposition are still not fully identified and understood. The codeposition models proposed in the literature are only valid in specific conditions, but composite depositions behave differently, or even opposite if some of the variables are modified. The main objective of this work is to identify the particle-current-electrocrystallization interactions in the production of Ni/SiC nanocomposites. A series of experiments are designed to isolate single variables and identify the controlling parameters of these interactions and their impact on the final properties. In this thesis, the effect of current density, type of current and particles size are identified as primary variables controlling the metal crystallisation and coatings properties. Among many parameters, a specific current waveform in pulse reverse mode proved to increase the codeposition rate effectively, doubling the content of nanoparticles compared to other techniques. Ultrasound assistance is also considered as stirring method when particles are suspended in the deposition bath to increase their stability and dispersion. The effect of Ultrasound on the particles codeposition and metal crystallisation is studied and compared to silent condition. Moreover, a surface treatment for the particle has been proven successful in making any particle to behave similarly in the Ni deposition bath. Furthermore, the codeposition rate doubled or tripled compared to untreated ones thanks to this treatment. Both ultrasonic agitation and surface treatment reduce the formation of aggregates, improving the particle dispersion and metal microstructure thus increasing the final hardness. The work proved the synergistic effect between particle and metal microstructure which affected the final properties of the coating. Therefore, when tailoring the composite coating to improve hardness, it is not only the amount of the particles that should be considered but also their influence on the electrocrystallisation process.
Kompositbeläggning har stort potential tack vare möjligheten att kombinera två material i samma ytskikt. På detta sätt kan nya ytegenskaper skräddarsys och appliceras på ett materials yta. Elektrodeposition är den tillverkningsmetod som har störst potential att uppnå kompositbeläggningar, i synnerhet nanokompositer. Ett kunskapsgap existerar mellan elektrodeposition under laboratorieförhållanden, som beskrivet i vetenskaplig litteratur, och hur processen går till i industriell miljö. Medan industriell tillämpning av mikrokompositer pågått ungefär tio år, så har produktion av Ni/SiC nanokompositbeläggningar fortfarande inte nått fabriksgolvet. Detta är en konsekvens av bristande förståelse kring mekanismer för samdeposition av nanopartiklar som leder till varierande resultat. Produktion av nanokompositbeläggningar är mycket mer känslig för processparametrar jämfört med mikrokompositer. Korrelationer mellan parametrar och dess inverkan på samdeposition är fortfarande inte fullt identifierade och förstådda. Modeller för samdeposition som föreslås i vetenskaplig litteratur är endast giltiga under särskilda förhållanden. Kompositdeposition kan uppvisa avvikande eller till och med motsatt beteende om variabler förändras. Huvudmålet med detta arbete är att identifiera interaktioner mellan partikel, ström och elektrokristallisering under tillverkning av Ni/SiC nanokompositer. En serie av experiment är utvecklade för att isolera variabler och identifiera de parametrarna som kontrollerar dessa interaktioner och dess inverkan på ytans egenskaper. I denna avhandling identifieras strömtäthet, typ av ström, och partiklars storlek som primära variabler som kontrollerar metallkristallisering och beläggningens egenskaper. Bland många parametrar, visades en specifik vågform på strömmen i omvänd pulsläge öka samdepositionen effektivt, ledande till en fördubbling av andelen nanopartiklar jämfört med andra tekniker. Ultraljud tillämpades som metod för omrörning av depositionsbadet för förbättrad stabilitet och fördelning. Effekten av ultraljud på samdepositionen av metallkristallisering studeras och jämfört med tyst tillstånd. Dessutom har en ytbehandling för partiklarna visats framgångsrik för att få godtyckliga partiklar att bete sig likt Ni i depositionsbadet. Detta ledde till att samdepositionens takt ökade med en faktor av två till tre jämfört med obehandlade partiklar. Både ultraljud och ytbehandling av partiklarna ledde till minskad aggregation vilket förbättrade fördelningen av partiklar och metallstruktur och därigenom ökad hårdhet. Arbetet bevisar synergieffekten mellan partiklar och metallstruktur vilket påverkar beläggningens slutliga egenskaper. Vid utveckling av nya ytbeläggningar ska därför inte bara mängden partiklar beaktas utan även dess interaktion med elektrokristalliseringsprocessen.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse consiste à synthétiser des nanoparticules de dioxyde de titane pour la décontamination d’agents chimiques par photocatalyse. L’objectif principal est d’optimiser le photocatalyseur pour la dégradation du sulfure de diéthyle (DES), simulant de l’ypérite. L’oxydation du DES produit des sulfates qui empoisonne le TiO2. Le but est donc de limiter cette désactivation ainsi que le rejet de molécules toxiques. Une solution est d’augmenter la surface spécifique par deux méthodes : le dopage du TiO2 au tantale ou à l’étain et l’ajout d’un porogène lors de la synthèse par voie sol-gel. Les catalyseurs optimisés présentent des taux de conversion élevés pour l’élimination du DES en phase gazeuse sous flux continu grâce à leur surface spécifique importante et leurs propriétés d’adsorption. Les matériaux les plus performants sont ensuite immobilisés sur des mousses tridimensionnelles de β-SiC. Ces média photocatalytiques se désactivent mois rapidement que les matériaux pulvérulents. Une régénération par une solution de soude permet de retrouver leur activité initiale. Ce qui permet une utilisation industrielle possible des catalyseurs. Cette thèse ouvre la voie à la réalisation d’un prototype de décontamination de l’air pour l’élimination d’agents chimiques de guerre
This work consists in the synthesis of titanium dioxide nanoparticles for the decontamination of chemical warfare agents by photocatalysis. The main goal is to optimize the photocatalyst to eliminate diethylsulfide (DES), simulating yperite. The oxidation of DES generates sulfates that lead to the poisoning of TiO2. Thus, the aim is to limit this deactivation and to avoid a release of harmful products. A solution is to increase the specific suface area by two methods: doping TiO2 with tantalum or tin and adding a porogen during the sol-gel synthesis. These optimized catalysts exhibit high conversion rates for DES elimination in the gas phase under a continuous flow thanks to their high specific surface area and their adsorption properties. The best catalysts are immobilized on tridimensional β-SiC foams. These photocatalytic foams deactivates slower than the TiO2 powders. A regeneration by an NaOH solution can restore their initial activity. It allows a possible industrial application for these catalysts. This thesis opens the way to realize a decontamination prototype for air to eliminate chemical warfare agents

Abstract:
La nanoscience est basée sur les changements de propriétés des particules lorsque leur diamètre est inférieur à 100 nm (i.e. nanoparticules, NPs). Devant l’utilisation croissante de tels NPs, et leur déversement probable dans l’environnement, l’évaluation de leurs risques sur la santé humaine et l’environnement est un enjeu majeur. Dans le cadre de la protection des eaux et des sols, l’évaluation de la qualité des eaux de surface est particulièrement importante, notamment dans les zones humides (ZHs), où la dynamique des métaux toxique (i.e. As, Pb, Ni, Cr, Hg) est complexe et dépend des conditions redox du milieu. Comme les NPs de magnétite (nano-Fe3O4), naturelles ou manufacturées, sont reconnues pour leur capacité d’adsorption importante face aux métaux lourds, leurs interactions dans les ZHs ripariennes (ZHRs) avec les ETMs restent critiques quant à leurs impacts directs ou indirects. Ainsi, l’objectif de cette thèse était d’étudier le rôle des nano-Fe3O4 manufacturées (~10nm) et des oxydes de fer naturels sur la dynamique des ETMs dans les eaux de surfaces et les sols de ZHRs. Ainsi, dans un premier volet portant sur des précipités colloïdaux naturels provenant de produits de reoxydation en milieu riparian (soumis à des oscillations redox), la distribution spatiale des éléments a été effectuée par cartographie isotopique nanoSIMS (i.e. 75As-, 56Fe16O-, le soufre (32S-) et la matière organique (12C14N-), alors que la spéciation du soufre a été évaluée par adsorption des rayons X au seuil K du soufre (S) (XANES). Ces analyses ont permis de mettre en évidences les interactions entre les oxydes de fer naturels, la matière organique naturelle (MON) et un métalloïde toxique, l’arsenic. Nos résultats suggèrent, par colocalisation statistique des images nanoSIMS, l’existence de deux types d’interaction : (1) 12C14N-, 32S-, 56Fe16O- et 75As-, et (2) 12C14N-, 32S- et 75As-. La coexistence des formes de S oxydées et réduites, confirmées par les analyses XANES, pourrait être attribuée à la lente cinétique d’oxydation de la MON. Ainsi, ce premier volet montre qu’en plus des interactions MON, oxydes de fer et As, de possibles interactions directes entre As et NOM à travers des groupements fonctionnels soufrés (e.g. thiols) sont aussi possibles en milieu oxydé. Dans un second volet, l’effet des nano-Fe3O4 (~ 10 nm) sur la mobilité des éléments traces (ETs) et des colloïdes, dans l'horizon organominéral d’un sol naturel de ZHR, a été évaluée à l’aide de colonnes de sol. Nos résultats montrent que l’enrobage des nanoparticules semble influencer la mobilité de la MON et des ETs du sol. En effet, la mobilité des ETs semble augmenter en présence de nano-Fe3O4 nus, suggérant des associations où la MON stabiliserait les nanoparticules et augmenterait leur mobilité ainsi que celle des ETs associés
Nanoscience is based on changes in particle properties when their diameter is below 100 nm (ie nanoparticles, NPs). Considering the increasing use of such NPs and their discharge into the environment, the assessment of their risks to human health and the environment is a major issue. Underneath the protection of waters and soils, the surface water assessment quality is particularly important, especially in wetlands, where the toxic metals dynamic (e.g. As, Pb, Ni, Cr , Hg) is complex and depends on the redox conditions of the environment. As magnetite (nano-Fe3O4), a natural or manufactured NP, is known for its significant adsorption capacity with heavy metals, their interactions in riparian wetlands with trace metals (TMs) remain critical concerning their direct of indirect impact on trace metals (TMs) mobility. The objective of this thesis was to study the role of manufactured nano-Fe3O4 (~ 10nm) and natural iron oxides on the TMs dynamics in wetland surface waters and soils. Therefore, in a first part considering natural colloidal precipitates from reoxidation products from riparian areas (subject to redox oscillations), a spatial distribution of elements was performed using nanoSIMS isotope mapping (i.e. 75As-, 56Fe16O-, sulfur (32S-) and organic matter (12C14N-), while the sulfur speciation was evaluated X-ray adsorption at K edge of the sulfur (S) (XANES). These analyzes allowed to highlight the interactions between natural iron oxides, natural organic matter (NOM) and a toxic metalloid, As. Our results suggest, with a statistical colocalization of nanoSIMS images, the existence of two interaction types: (1) 12C14N-, 32S-, 56Fe16O- and 75As-, and (2) 12C14N-, 32S- and 75As-. The coexistence of the oxidized and reduced forms of S, confirmed by the XANES analyses might be attributed to the slow oxidation kinetic of MON. Thus, this first part shows that in addition to the known interactions between MON, iron oxides and As, a possible direct interaction between As and NOM through sulfur functional groups (e.g. thiols) are also possible in oxidized environment. In a second part, the effect of nano-Fe3O4 (~ 10 nm) on trace elements (TEs) and colloids mobility in the organomineral horizon of a natural wetland soil was assessed using soil columns. Our results show that the nanoparticles coating influences the mobility of NOM and TMs. Indeed, the TMs mobility increases in presence of naked nano-Fe3O4, suggesting associations where NOM stabilizes the nanoparticles and increase the nanoparticles and associated TMs mobility. This mechanism seems less possible with coated nano-Fe3O4 where MON blocks the coating adsorption sites and therefore the adsorption of metals

Abstract:
Cette étude de la fonctionnalisation de graphène se base principalement sur la monocouche de graphène épitaxiée sur SiC. Les propriétés électroniques, structurales et les compositions chimiques du graphène fonctionnalisé sont étudiées. L'incorporation d'azote dans le graphène réalisée par les procédures à base de plasma montre un décalage de niveaux inoccupés du graphène vers EF , obtenue par les analyses spectroscopie de photoémission inverse en résolution angulaire. Ce dopage-n est attribué à la présence de graphitique-N. De plus, la configuration des espèces de N substitués dans le graphène peut être contrôlée efficacement par l'énergie, les espèces d'azote incidentes, et l'épaisseur du graphène de départ. L'hydrogénation de la couche tampon de graphène (BLG) à température variante sature les liaisons pendantes de Si de l'interface différemment, soit par la formation de nouvelles liaisons C-Si à température ambiente, soit par les hydrogènes intercalés. Le BLG devient fortement-isolant dans le premier cas, et devient une monocouche de graphène quasi-autoportante (QFSG) dans le second, permettant un nouveau concept de fabrication des dispositifs à base de graphène sur SiC. La réaction/couplage entre des molécules pi-conjugué et les graphène vierge ou fonctionnalisé est aussi étudiée. Les états inoccupés des molécules à base de perylene sont légèrement modiffiées sur le graphène dopé N à cause d'un renforcement de transfert de charge. Des réactions chimiques entre les molécules perylenes et le graphène sont observées aprés l'exposition aux électrons de basse énergie. En résumé, cette étude permettra une meilleure maîtrise des propriétés des matériaux 2D comme le graphène
In order to promote 2D materials like graphene to their numerous applications, new methodsaltering their electronic and chemical properties have to be mastered. In this thesis, theprocesses of chemical doping and hydrogenation of monolayer graphene grown on SiC are investigated. Nitrogen atoms are successfully substituted in the graphene lattice using plasma-basedmethods. The bonding configurations of the incorporated N can be controlled via the nature and energy of exposing species and the thickness of the pristine graphene. An n-type doping, revealed by angle-resolved inverse photoemission spectroscopy (ARIPES), is found in most N-doped graphene and is assigned to the presence of graphitic-N. Hydrogenations of the buffer layer of graphene (BLG) on SiC at ambient or high temperatures saturate the remaining Si dangling bonds at BLG/SiC interface in two different ways, either by inducing additional C-Si bonds or by H intercalation. This results in 2D materials with distinct characters, an insulating, graphane-like H-BLG or a quasi-free-standing graphene, which may be used as a new concept for the engineering of graphene-based devices. The interactions between pi-conjugated molecules and the functionalized graphene are also investigated. The unoccupied states of molecules are altered by the presence of incorporated N, but the degradation of molecules due to low-energy electron exposure seems not enhanced by the doping nitrogen under the studied conditions. Nevertheless, the functionalization of graphene is demonstrated and its electronic and chemical properties are carefully studied, which should help to faster further applications employing functionalized graphene

Abstract:
En 1920, le moteur Diesel marque l'histoire en se faisant une place dans le milieu de l'automobile. Toutefois, malgré la révolution que représente le moteur Diesel notamment en terme de technologie (moteur à combustion interne dont l'allumage n'est pas commandé mais spontané par phénomène d'auto-inflammation (absence de bougie d'allumage)), des inconvénients majeurs subsistent, tout particulièrement au niveau environnemental et sanitaire (émission de gaz à effet de serre, prélèvement accru d'énergie fossile, impact direct sur la santé). Afin de lutter contre ces émissions, l'Union Européen à mit en place les normes EURO (depuis 1993) incitant les constructeurs automobiles à concevoir des procédés d'élimination des particules carbonées et à apporter des évolutions au niveau des motorisations. C'est dans ce contexte qu'a vu le jour la technologie Filtre à Particules initié par Peugeot en 1999 pour évoluer d'années en années jusqu'à être considérées aujourd'hui comme une avancée majeur en terme de traitement des particules Diesel. Encore aujourd'hui les problèmes d'émanations demeurent en raison des imbrûlés générés par le moteur diesel (suies, HC aromatiques polycycliques, d'oxyde de soufre, d'oxyde d'azote…). Les dégagements de particules de suies fines demeurant un problème particulièrement important au niveau de la santé. Cette thèse s'inscrit dans l'optique d'optimisation du procédé FàP en proposant l'élaboration de membrane à base de SiC supportée. Plus généralement, notre étude concerne l'élaboration de céramiques poreuses (membranes supportées et mousses) à base de silicium pour application environnementale et sanitaire (Filtration des particules fines, dépollution et séquestration de CO2).Le Chapitre I traite du contexte général de l'étude. La problématique des émissions de particules est abordée d'un point de vue sanitaire et environnemental en précisant les normes en vigueurs pour leur contrôle. La technologie FàP est décrite avant d'introduire le SiC et la voie dite des « polymères précéramiques » (PDCs). L'aspect catalytique est ensuite abordé avant de développer le principe d'élaboration de membrane SiC et leur intérêt pour une application de dépollution automobile.Le Chapitre II traite de l'élaboration de membranes SiC supportées. L'étude concerne l'élaboration d'un procédé optimale pour déposer une membrane au sein de la porosité du FàP qui modifierait les caractéristiques de porosité de ce dernier sans pour autant engendrer des répercussions néfastes sur la filtration. Le polymère précéramique, précurseur de SiC, sera alors décrit et nous étudierons sa mise en forme par la technique dite de « trempage-tirage » (dip-coating) afin d'élaborer, après pyrolyse, une membrane SiC. Cette dernière sera caractérisée par de nombreux outils expérimentaux.Le Chapitre III reprend le procédé d'élaboration des membranes de SiC élaboré dans le Chapitre II mais il proposera d'aller plus loin avec la réalisation et l'étude de catalyseurs pour la combustion des suies, et leur intégration au sein d'une microémulsion de type SiC-MxOy utilisée pour revêtir les FàP.Le Chapitre IV propose une étude sur la préparation de mousses à base de SiC. Ce chapitre d'aspect plus fondamental consistera à développer des mousses cellulaires et à porosité hiérarchisée à base des éléments silicium (Si), bore (B), carbone (C) et azote (N). Cette phase de carbonitrure de silicium et de bore (Si/B/C/N) sera élaborée par couplage de la voie PDCs avec soit des agents sacrificiels soit par réplication. Une étude préliminaire sur la séquestration de CO2 sera alors décrite pour finir
Since the 90's, Diesel engines are widely used though they are criticized because of the pollution emitted. The constant updates of the Europeans norms (since 1993) concerning the diesel emissions imply a perpetual improvement of filtration techniques. The Diesel Particles Filter (DPF) technology used by the car manufacturer PSA Peugeot Citroën is one of the best ways to fulfill the limitation for diesel emissions. However, particles emission issue is still a problem and future legislations more and stricter, so an improvement of the DPF process is required to respect them. In this context, we have considered the elaboration of two different types of porous membranes on the DPF channels. The first one was in SiC, and had the aim to enhance the filtration efficiency. In this way, the smallest particles matter could be locked in the filter. The second kind of membrane integrates a catalytic phase inside the ceramic matrix, so in addition to the filtration aspect, it could improve soot combustion during the regeneration step of the DPF.The first chapter of my thesis deals with the literature corresponding to the subject, i.e. the DPF technology, non-oxides Si-based ceramics, and in particular those obtained through polymer-derived ceramics route (also called PDCs route). Then, ceramic coatings and catalytic phases are also treated. In the second chapter, we have considered the PDCs route and preceramic polymers to elaborate a SiC coating inside the DPF channels. We employed the dip-coating technique to overlay the channel surface with the AHPCS precursor of SiC (allylhydridopolycarbosilane), then, a pyrolysis under argon allows obtaining a SiC coating, in order to decrease the average pore diameter of the DPF (keeping an efficient filtration while avoiding overpressure) to catch soot nanoparticles evolving from Diesel engine.The third part of my PhD deals with the elaboration of another kind of coating for the DPF channels including a catalytic phase in the ceramic membrane. For this purpose, the microemulsion synthesis has been considered to prepare SiC-MxOy membrane. Further, we incorporated various catalytic phases based on Ce, Fe and Pt as activators of soot combustion. By employing the dip-coating technique, we successfully covered the DPF channels of our monoliths with the aforementioned microemulsion and after a heat treatment under controlled atmosphere; a porous coating consisting of the catalytic phase and the ceramic matrix was obtained. From this film, the porosity has been modified by lowering the diameter of the initial pores, but also by getting an additional porosity due to the polymer conversion and the surfactant decomposition. Catalytic sites in the ceramic have improved the soot combustion by lowering the temperature of the combustion.The fourth chapter introduces the elaboration of porous SiBCN materials through two approaches, replication and warm-pressing with sacrificial template (polymethylmethacrylate, PMMA). The SiBCN ceramic is a promising material due to its high mechanical properties and its stability at high temperature (1700-1800°C). By coupling the PDCs way with those two techniques, we are able to elaborate SiBCN porous materials which features can be tuned according to the technological application envisaged

Abstract:
Quenching experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of nanoparticle deposition on boiling heat transfer during rapid quenching in long vertical tubes. SiC and graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles were deposited by boiling 0.01 vol% SiC/water and GO/water nanofluids in the vertical tube for 600 and 900 s to observe the repeatability of the nanoparticle deposition. Reflood tests were performed by passing water through bare tube and nanoparticle-coated tube at a constant flow rate (3 cm/s). Quenching curves (temperature vs. time) and saturated boiling curves were obtained at atmospheric pressure. We observed a more enhanced cooling performance in nanoparticle-coated tubes. The quenching time of tubes coated with SiC nanoparticles for 600 and 900 s were reduced by more than 20 and 25 s, respectively, compared to that of the bare tube. For the tubes boiled with GO nanoparticles for 600 and 900 s, the quenching times decreased by 10 and 12 s, respectively, compared to that of the bare tube. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images were acquired, and the contact angles were measured to observe the effects of surface structures and wettability on the cooling performance.

Abstract:
Abstract Oil recovery in modern fields is challenging due to the reservoir complexity and heterogeneity. The need is to improve the efficacy of additives used in oil mobilization under higher pressure, temperature, and salinity conditions. The nanoparticles provide improved and sustainable solutions for improving oil recovery. Silicon carbide nanoparticle exhibits negligible agglomeration and impart higher thermal stability to the displacing fluid for oil mobilization at higher salinity. The SIC nanoparticles are being used in EOR Applications for the first time owing to their adsorption reduction potential and thermal stability at elevated temperatures. The study estimates this nanoparticle's enhanced oil recovery potential using electrical conductivity, surface tension reduction, and crude oil mobilization. The concentration of SDS was varied from zero-4000 ppm and that of SIC from 100 ppm to 300 ppm. The solution's surface tension and critical micelle concentration (CMC) conductivity were measured at elevated temperatures (30°C, 50°C, and 70°C) with and without nanoparticles. The adsorption studies were performed for 72 hours with 10 wt% of sand added to the solution. The loss of surfactant onto the sand was calculated by studying the variation electrical conductivity before and after adsorption. Surface tension reduces from 70.15 to 28.5 mN/m with increasing SDS and nanoparticles concentrations in the solution. The CMC values of the SDS+SIC solution were lower than that of the independent surfactant system, even at higher temperatures of 70°C. SDS adsorption increased from 0.80 to 6.27 mg/g as the surfactant concentration increased up to 4000 ppm. It was reduced by about 10% and 20% for 100 ppm and 200 ppm of the nanoparticles. However, at 300 ppm, the agglomeration of nanoparticles renders them ineffective in controlling adsorption.

Abstract:
Magnesium, the lightest structural metal, is of significance to improve energy efficiency in various applications. Mg/SiC nanocomposites were successfully fabricated by ultrasonic cavitation based dispersion of SiC nanoparticles in Mg melts. As compared to pure magnesium, the mechanical properties including tensile strength and yield strength of the Mg/SiC nanocomposites were improved significantly, while the good ductility of pure Mg casting was retained. The grain size of the pure magnesium was refined when SiC nanoparticles were added. In the microstructure of Mg/SiC nanocomposites, there are still quite some SiC clusters, but in the areas free of large clusters, the SiC nanoparticles were dispersed very well. TEM study of the interface between SiC nanoparticles and magnesium matrix indicates a good bonding, but no chemical reaction between SiC nanoparticles and magnesium matrix.

Abstract:
In this study, a brittle epoxy resin has successfully been toughened by very small concentrations of SiC and diamond nanoparticles. The tensile stress-strain response (based on the ASTM tensile tests for polymers) and the fracture energy release rate, GIC, (based on the ASTM Single-Edge-Notched-Bending, SENB, tests for polymers) of neat and nano-reinforced epoxy were characterized over a range of nanoparticle concentrations. The maximum elevation of the fracture toughness, GIC, occurred at a very small particle concentration of about 0.2% by weight, for both diamond and SiC nanoparticles). This was also manifested as higher tensile failure stress and strain. The elevation of fracture toughness is most likely due to crack front trapping of the particles that promoted subsequent local plastic deformation. Scanning electron micrographs of the fracture surfaces for samples tested in tension and fracture showed the transition of epoxy behavior from brittle-to-ductile-to-brittle with increasing weight percentage of nanoparticles. At higher particle concentrations, flaky fracture surface was observed and the fracture toughness dropped, attaining values similar to the unreinforced polymer, which is attributed to agglomeration of the nanoparticles.

Abstract:
We are investigating ballistic impact assembly of nanoparticles to form a new class of materials for superhard coatings and micromolded MEMS parts. Nanoparticles are generated by dissociating vapor-phase reactants injected downstream of a thermal plasma and expanding the resultant flow through a converging nozzle into a low-pressure chamber. The nanoparticle-laden gases achieve hypersonic velocities due to the pressure difference between the reaction region (450 torr) and the low-pressure chamber (∼2 torr). Particles are deposited by one of two processes: (a) by placing a substrate 20mm downstream of the flow, which results in a bow shock at the substrate and high impact velocities (calculated to be over 2000 m/s for a 20 nm SiC particle): termed as high-rate deposition, (b) by focusing the particles into a tight beam (width of ∼35 (μm) using aerodynamic lenses, and subsequent impaction on a translating substrate: termed as focused beam deposition. Thus far, nanoparticle deposits consisting of combinations of Si, Ti, C and N have been explored.

Abstract:
Thermoelectric (TE) properties of Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and Silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticles after treated with sol-gel dopants at elevated temperature. Different combinations of P and N type sol-gels were used. The combinations were Boron-Antimony, Aluminum-Antimony, Aluminum-Phosphorus and Boron–Phosphorus. The nanoparticles were randomly distributed on a nonconductive glass substrate and hot and cold junctions were created using silver epoxy and Alumel (Ni-Al) wire. The carbon nanotubes used were approximately 60% semiconducting and 40% metallic. Voltage (mV), current (μA) and resistance (Ω) were measured across the distributed nanoparticles within 160° C temperature difference. The Seebeck coefficient for pristine SWCNTs was 0.12 mV/oC. When doped with Boron-Antimony the Seebeck coefficient increased to 0.981 mV/°C. On the hand, SiC nanoparticles showed no TE effect at pristine form, but when infused with SWCNTs substantial TE effect was present. Even though the Seebeck coefficient was in a similar range with different SWCNT concentrations (wt%), current, resistance and Power factor (P.F.) changed with wt% of nanotubes. Resistance of the nanotube samples slightly decreased with the increase in temperature. Finally, the SiC+SWCNT composites were prepared using the sintering process at around 1500° C. Thermoelectric and Mechanical properties of the composites were tested. The structure-property relation was analyzed using SEM (scanning electron microscope) and XRD (X-ray diffraction). It was revealed that fiber like SWCNTs created randomly distributed network with Nano contact junctions inside the SiC matrix and enhance thermoelectric and mechanical properties in the combined SiC+SWCNTs material system.

Abstract:
Magnesium Metal Matrix Composites (Mg-MMCs) with nano-sized reinforcements exhibit better mechanical properties comparing to pure Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys. However, it is challenging to improve the machinability of this kind of composites. An analytical cutting force model for the micro-milling process was developed and validated to analyze the micro-machinability of the SiC nanoparticles reinforced Mg-MMCs. This model is different from the previous ones because it encompasses the behaviors of the reinforcement nanoparticles in the three cutting regimes, i.e., shearing, ploughing and elastic recovery. The volume fraction of particles and particle size are considered as two significant factors affecting the cutting forces in this model. The effects of the reinforcement nanoparticles on cutting forces were studied through modeling and experimental validation. The simulated cutting forces show a good agreement with the experimental data. Moreover, it is indicated that the amplitude and profile of cutting forces vary with the reinforcement particle’s volume fraction. This mainly arises from the strengthening effect of SiC nanoparticles.
