Cubic Boron Nitride Cone-Microstructures

总结

Cubic boron nitride (cBN) is the second highest in terms of hardness, elastic modulus, thermal conductivity, next to diamond, and it even has some superior properties surpassing those of diamond. cBN structures are incredibly durable materials that could have even better electronic qualities than their carbon counterparts. This novel method enables the formation of cBN cone arrays over large areas with great uniformity and high reproducibility. Because of the extreme properties, the invented conical structures with high aspect ratio and a large surface area or individual cones are applicable in probe analytical and testing techniques including scanning probe microscopy (SPM) and nanoindentation, nanomechanics and nanomachining in progressing microelectromechanical system (MEMS) devices, field electron emission, vacuum microelectronic devices, sensors and different electrode systems including those used in electrochemistry.
