The particles grew by a hot-filament CVD process preferentially on the very ends of the tips. An explanation is given for the preferential deposition based on the idea that the real temperature of the ends is markedly, about 200 $\,^{\circ}$C, greater than the average temperature of the tips. Field-emission measurements showed that diamond-coated silicon tips can give currents as large as 500 μA before they are destroyed, at least one order of magnitude larger than uncoated silicon tips. The temporal stability of the emission current was high.}, Author = {E.I. Givargizov and L.L. Aksenova and A.V. Kuznetsov and P.S. Plekhanov and E.V. Rakova and A.N. Stepanova and V.V.

Depending upon growth conditions and gases, these fibers were either flexible (elastic), brittle (thickened) or graphitic (strong). The elastic carbon fibers were uniform and appear to represent a novel form of carbon. The reactants were acetylene, ethylene or methane, and the reaction pressures ranged from 1.9 to 7.5 bar. The highest fiber growth rate was 0.33 mrn/s, and the lowest fiber diameter was 10 μm. }, Author = {Wallenberger,Frederick T. and Diefendorf,R.

The boron, carbon and silicon nitride fibers were amorphous, the silicon carbide fibers polycrystalline, and the silicon fibers either glassy, polycrystalline or single crystals. The latter were formed by a vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism. The process speeds, and most likely the first-order process economics, are about the same as those reported for the commercial manufacture of single crystal sapphire fibers (which are, however, made by a different process). A commercial LCVD multifilament process is being developed. LCVD was also used to grow free-standing, three-dimensional microstructures (grids, springs, solenoids) directly from the vapor phase. Related microstructures (microwafers with VLS silicon bristles) are also becoming commercially available.}, Author = {Frederick T. Wallenberger and Paul C.
