Design of manipulator for ultrahigh electron microscope
Caesar, Radek ; Mach, Jindřich (referee) ; Bábor, Petr (advisor)
The main purpose of this thesis is mechanical design of a manipulator for an ultra-high vacuum scanning electron microscope (UHV SEM), being currently developed by TESCAN ORSAY HOLDING a.s. in cooperation with the Institute of physical engineering FME BUT. The manipulator is supposed to be able to handle with specimens in so-called preparation chamber, which the specimens are put in before placing into the analytic chamber. In the preparation chamber the surface finishing and also other operations are made. In the theoretical part some of the technologies used in vacuum engineering, especially various principles of pressure measurement and gas pumping, are described. Besides, the thesis is focused on a brief description of UHV SEM being developed and the methods of specimen preparation. The practical part deals with the concept and the mechanical design of manipulator itself.

Hybrid materials based on magnetically bistable molecular compounds
Vavrečková, Šárka ; Herchel, Radovan (referee) ; Nemec, Ivan (advisor)
Tato diplomová práce se zaobírá depozicí jednomolekulárních magnetů na grafen. Teoretická část se věnuje jednomolekulárním magnetům, vybraným způsobům depozice jednomolekulárních magnetů na dvourozměrné materiály a grafenu. Dále jsou rozebrány fyzikální principy zvolených charakterizačních metod (mikroskopie atomárních sil, elektronová skenovací mikroskopie, Ramanova spektroskopie, rentgenová fotoelektronová spektroskopie a elektronová paramagnetická rezonance). V praktické části byla provedena depozice šesti kobaltových jednomolekulárních magnetů pomocí termální sublimace. U dvou z nich byla provedena také depozice z roztoku metodou „drop-casting“ k ověření jejich vysoké stability. Poté byly vzorky analyzovány pomocí již výše zmíněných metod a diskutovány výsledky. Díky úspěšným depozicím se podařilo identifikovat stabilní jednomolekulární magnety se slibnými magnetickými vlastnosti.

Thin Film Electrodes for Electrochromic Devices
Macalík, Michal ; Kadlec, Jaromír (referee) ; Nováková,, Sabina (referee) ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
The work deals with the deposition of layers for electrochromic device with different methods. Transparent electrically conductive layer of SnO2 was deposited by pyrolytic decomposition of peroxostannate solution. Hydrogen peroxide in starting solution contributes to the oxidation process of growth layers and to increase the electrical conductivity. Active electrochromic layer of WO3 was electrolytic deposited from the peroxotungstic acid solution. Optimal deposition time and the optimal annealing temperature of deposited layers were found. Passive electrochromic layer of V2O5 was deposited using dip-coating method from peroxovanadate solution. A contribution of solution diluted with distilled water was investigated. Found results were used to construct complete electrochromic device with polymer gel electrolyte.

GaN deposition on a tungsten substrate
Pikna, Štěpán ; Piastek, Jakub (referee) ; Čalkovský, Vojtěch (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on deposition of GaN nanocrystals on the etched tungsten tips. Motivation was to prepare these GaN structures on the Schottky cathode made by company ThermoFisher Scientific and measure its field emission. In the theoretical part of the thesis GaN and tungsten field emission properties are introduced. The experimental part begins with tungsten tip etching optimalization, where the right values for best tips are temperature 20 °C, depth of the tip 2,5 mm and solution NaOH used. Further the gallium structures were prepared on these tips using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The right temperature to prepare GaN nanocrystals was determined as 200 °C. The deposition of gallium was set to 2 hours and following nitridation was 3 hours. Finally, the field emission from GaN prepared on copper foil with graphene was measured and compared with other experiments.

A method for the solution of non-spherical (fiber) particles deposition by means of the Fokker-Planck equation for ODF in a laminar flow
Kopečková, Barbora ; Knotek, Stanislav (referee) ; Jícha, Miroslav (advisor)
The Bachelor's thesis deals with a deposition efficiency for a fibers by various mechanisms of a deposition. It explains deposition efficiency by diffusion, by sedimentation and by impaction. The implementation of Peterlin's analytical solution for calculation of the ODF, which is used for individual efficiencies solution, is also mentioned. Afterwards, the thesis summarizes formulas for calculation of particular efficiencies derived for spherical particles and recomputation appropriate parameters for fibers. The purpose of the thesis is to create graphs, which illustrate deposition efficiencies dependence by various mechanisms on the aspect ratio of fibers. Another goal is the graphs creation, which shows juxtaposition for various breathing modes for given deposition mechanisms. The software MATLAB is used for the whole calculation process and graphs plotting.

Deposition of magnetic nanostructures using EBID and optimalization of their chemical composition and morphology
Vyroubal, Ondřej ; Kolíbalová, Eva (referee) ; Kolíbal, Miroslav (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with deposition of cobalt nanostructures using Electron Beam Induced Depositon (EBID). The thesis firstly describes theoretical background regarding EBID. In the following experimental part, the deposition process is optimized via analysis of exposition parameters and their influence on the final shape of nanostructures. These are analyzed via Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Optimized exposure parameters are then applied to the deposition of functional 3-dimensional nanostrucutres. In particular, the deposition of cobalt spheres. The elemental composition is analyzed by the means of element composition using Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) and the nanostructures of desired morphologies are studied with Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM) and Magneto-Optical Kerr Microscope).

SiO2 etching by Si deposition
Pokorný, David ; Bábor, Petr (referee) ; Polčák, Josef (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with one of the most interesting reactions taking place in the solid phase in UHV conditions and that is decomposition of SiO2 according to the equation Si + SiO2 = 2SiO. It was used the previously untested procedure - providing Si atoms not from substrate, but by direct deposition on the surface of the oxide. As a source of silicon atoms was used effusion cell. Deposition of silicon on SiO2 substrate was used at room temperature and at elevated temperature to clarify the principle of this reaction. The activation energy and temperature dependence of the reaction rate was determined. It was also verified the possibility of etching SiO2 by Si deposition in UHV conditions. The prepared samples were examined by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy.

Thin film systems
Rada, Vojtěch ; Sedlaříková, Marie (referee) ; Zatloukal, Miroslav (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis is focused on the problematics of thin-film technology. In the beginning the work deals with a general theory of this problematics, discusses various methods and ways to lay a thin film, where more emphasis is placed on magnetron sputtering, which is used in the practical part of the work, and describes procedures that are performed before and after the application of the thin film. The magnetron sputtering coating machine NP-12 and its control are described in the practical part of the work. Subsequently the selection and adjustment of suitable substrates is made, the thin-film system is deposited using the magnetron sputtering method and the analysis of the properties of deposited thin-film samples is done.
