Fabrication and Characterization of 2D Titanium Carbide MXene NanosheetsBecker Budwan
Typically, 2D free-standing crystals exhibit different properties from those of 3D counterparts. In this work, 2D nanosheets of Ti3C2 are synthesized by the room temperature exfoliation of Ti3AlC2 in hydrofluoric acid. Al is extracted from Ti3AlC2 and a new 2D material that we call MXene is formed to emphasize its graphene-like morphology. The treated powders can be used in the fabrication of Li-ion batteries and capacitors. A NSEM image of the treated powder shows the influence of HF treatment on the basal planes. Furthermore, XRD results shows the broadening of the peaks and loss of diffraction signal in the out-of-plane direction owing to exfoliation.

Nano Material
Introduction and Synthesis
Nanomaterials describe, in principle, materials of which a single unit is sized (in at least one dimension) between 1 and 1000 nanometres (10−9 meter) but is usually 1—100 nm (the usual definition of nanoscale[1]).
Nanomaterials research takes a materials science-based approach to nanotechnology, leveraging advances in materials metrology and synthesis which have been developed in support of microfabrication research. Materials with structure at the nanoscale often have unique optical, electronic, or mechanical properties.
Nanomaterials are slowly becoming commercialized[2] and beginning to emerge as commodities.[3]

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. CARBON NANOTUBES
• CNT is a tubular form of carbon with diameter
as small as 1nm. Length: few nm to microns.
• CNT is configurationally equivalent to a two
dimensional graphene sheet rolled into a
tube.
3. CARBON NANOTUBES
• A CNT is characterized by its Chiral Vector: Ch
= n â1 + m â2,
Chiral Angle with respect to the zigzag axis.
4. CARBON NANOTUBES
• Their electrical
characteristics
differ depending
on these
variations, and
variations in
diameter acting
either as metals
or as
semiconductors.
5. CARBON NANOTUBES
CARTEGORIES:
• Carbon Nanotubes can be categorized by their
structures:
1. Single-wall Nanotubes (SWNT)
2. Multi-wall Nanotubes (MWNT)
3. Double-wall Nanotubes (DWNT)
7. CARBON NANOTUBES
PROPERTIES:

materials in nature.
• Overall, Carbon Nanotubes show a unique
combination of stiffness, strength, and
tenacity.
• Thermal and electrical conductivity are also
very high, and comparable to other
conductive materials.
8. CARBON NANOTUBES
PROPERTIES:
• CNTs have Very High Tensile Strength
Sheet of graphite form a planar honeycomb
lattice, each atom is connected via a strong
chemical bond to three neighboring atoms.
Because of these strong bonds, the basal-plane
elastic modulus of graphite is one of the largest
of any known material.
9. CARBON NANOTUBES
PROPERTIES:
CNTs have High Electrical Conductivity:
• Their conductivity has been shown to
be a function of their chirality , as
well as their diameter.
• CNTs can be either metallic or semiconducting in their electrical
behavior.
• (a) Armchair NT exhibits metalic
behavior at Fermi energy, while (b)
zigzag NT is a small gap semicinductor
10. CARBON NANOTUBES
PROPERTIES:
CNTs have High Thermal Conductivity
• New research from the University of Pennsylvania
indicates that CNTs may be the best heatconducting material man has ever known.
• Ultra-small SWNTs have even been shown to
exhibit superconductivity below 20oK,
• May someday also find applications as miniature
heat conduits in a host of devices and materials
11. CARBON NANOTUBES

lightweight, making them
excellent replacements for
metallic wires
• Resources required to produce
them are plentiful, and many
can be made with only a small
amount of material
• Are resistant to temperature
changes, meaning they
function almost just as well in
extreme cold as they do in
extreme heat
•
•
•
•
•
Despite all the research, scientists
still don't understand exactly how
they work
Extremely small, so are difficult to
work with.
Currently, the process is relatively
expensive to produce the
nanotubes
Would be expensive to implement
this new technology in and replace
the older technology in all the
places that we could
At the rate our technology has
been becoming obsolete, it may be
a gamble to bet on this technology
13. CARBON NANOTUBES
FABRICATION OF CARBON NANOTUBES:
1. Elecritic Arc Discharge: Most common method of CNT fabrication
1. A current is run through an anode, or
a positively charged piece of carbon.
2. This current jumps through a plasma
material to a cathode, or a negatively
charged piece of carbon, where there
is an evaporation and deposition of
carbon particles in through the
plasma.
3. Finally an outer hard-shell region
made of decomposed graphite is
formed and an inner core region with
loosely packed columns which consist
of straight, stiff multishell carbon
nanotubes and closed polyhedral
particles
14. CARBON NANOTUBES
FABRICATION OF CARBON NANOTUBES:
2. Laser Ablation:
• Uses an intense laser pulse to vaporize a
carbon target, which also contains small
amount of metals such as nickel and
cobalt and is placed in a tube furnace at
1200oC.
• Inert gas is passed through the chamber
carrying the grown nanotubes on a cold
finger for collection.
• This method mainly produces SWCNT in
the form of ropes
15. CARBON NANOTUBES
FABRICATION OF CARBON NANOTUBES:

•
3. Chemical vapor deposition
A mixture of hydrocarbon, metal catalyst
along with inert gas is introduced into the
reaction chamber.
During the reaction, nanotubes form on the
substrate by the decomposition of
hydrocarbon at temperatures 700–900oC
and atmospheric pressure.
The diameters of nanotubes that are to be
grown are related to the size of the metal
particles
This technique offers more control over the
length and structure of the produced
nanotubes compared to arc and laser
methods.
Editor's Notes
compared to other fiber materials which usually lack one or more of these properties.
For this reason, CNTs are expected to be the ultimate high-strength fibers. SWNTs are stiffer than steel, and are very resistant to damage from physical forces. Pressing on the tip of a nanotube will cause it to bend, but without damage to the tip. When the force is removed, the tip returns to its original state. This property makes CNTs very useful as probe tips for very high-resolution scanning probe microscopy.
(a) the armchair nanotube exhibits a metallic behavior (finite value of charge carriers in the density of state (DOS) at the Fermi enegy, located at zero) (b) the zigzag nanotube is a small gap semiconductor (no charge carriers in the DOS at the Fermi energy)
