Embodiment

[0082] In order to demonstrate the principles and operation of the present invention, we provide examples of the present invention in a chemical vapor deposition environment. These examples are illustrative only, and should not limit the scope of the claims. Those of ordinary skill in the art would recognize many variations, improvements, and substitutions. As background information, we provide information on conventional chemical vapor deposition and its applications in relation to the methods and systems of the present invention. One of the goals of this CVD study is to achieve local control of nanostructures. Ferroelectric materials are ideal for non-volatile memory applications. However, challenges exist in fabricating uniform nanoscale arrays of ferroelectric materials. Conventional CVD is limited by only providing a random deposition process.

[0083] In this example, the localized heating of metallic nanostructures (such as particles, wires, or arrays thereof on a s...

Abstract

The present disclosure methods and systems that provide heat, via at least Photon-Electron resonance, also known as excitation, of at least a particle utilized, at least in part, to initiate and / or drive at least one catalytic chemical reaction. In some implementations, the particles are structures or metallic structures, such as nanostructures. The one or more metallic structures are heat at least as a result of interaction of incident electromagnetic radiation, having particular frequencies and / or frequency ranges, with delocalized surface electrons of the one or more particles. This provides a control of catalytic chemical reactions, via spatial and temporal control of generated heat, on the scale of nanometers as well as a method by which catalytic chemical reaction temperatures are provided.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to commonly assigned US Provisional Application No. 60 / 529869, filed December 15, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Background of the invention [0003] The present invention relates to the processing of materials, in particular microstructures or nanostructures, and their use. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and resulting structures for forming nanostructures and microstructures using deposition techniques for a wide variety of applications. By way of example only, such deposition techniques may be used to form one or more films in the fabrication of electronic devices such as integrated circuits. It should be recognized, however, that the invention has broader utility. The invention can be used for etching, enhancing chemical reactions, and the like. Furthermore, the present invention can be used in various fields including life sciences, chem...
