Provided is a method for fabricating a metal oxide thin film in which a metal oxide generated by a chemical reaction between a first reactant and a second reactant is deposited on the surface of a substrate as a thin film. The method involves introducing a first reactant containing a metal-organic compound into a reaction chamber including a substrate; and introducing a second reactant containing alcohol. Direct oxidation of a substrate or a deposition surface is suppressed by a reactant gas during the deposition process, as it uses alcohol vapor including no radical oxygen as a reactant gas for the deposition of a thin film. Also, since the thin film is deposited by the thermal decomposition, which is caused by the chemical reaction between the alcohol vapor and a precursor, the deposition rate is fast. Particularly, the deposition rate is also fast when a metal-organic complex with β-diketone ligands is used as a precursor. Further, a thin film with low leakage current can be obtained as the metal oxide thin film fabrication method using a chemical vapor deposition or atomic layer deposition method grows a thin film with fine microstructure.

Therefore, the electrolyte can solve the problem of electrolyte decomposition occurring when using a eutectic mixture alone as an electrolyte for a battery, and thus can prevent degradation of the quality of a battery.

The addition of Ar in the deposition maintains film thickness uniformity below 2% for a longer period so that PM cleaning operations are less frequent and affords a lower fluorocarbon plasma etch rate to enable improved trench depth control in a damascene scheme. A lower leakage current and higher breakdown voltage in achieved in the resulting metal interconnect.

Catalytic pyrolysis can upcycle waste, e.g., car bumpers, to carbon nanomaterials, preferably using synthetic TiO2 nanoparticles as catalyst during pyrolysis. Analysis of the carbon nanomaterials shows that, while RGO is produced from thermal pyrolysis of car bumper waste absent TiO2, RGO spotted with carbon dots is produced in presence of TiO2 catalyst.
