MEMS-based Porous Silicon Preconcentrators Filled with Carbopack-B for Explosives Detection

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, El Hadji Malick Camara

In this paper we report the detection of explosive compounds using a miniaturized gas preconcentrator (μGP) made of porous silicon (PS) filled in with Carbopack B as an adsorbent material. The μGP includes also a platinum heater patterned at the backside a ...

Silica-surface reorganization during organotin grafting evidenced by Sn-119 DNP SENS: a tandem reaction of gem-silanols and strained siloxane bridges

David Lyndon Emsley, Aaron James Rossini

Grafting reactive molecular complexes on dehydroxylated amorphous silica is a strategy to develop ``single-site'' heterogeneous catalysts. In general, only the reactivity of isolated silanols is invoked for silica dehydroxylated at 700 degrees C ([SiO2-700 ...

Chalcopyrite thin-film solar cells by industry-compatible ink-based process

Cyril Cayron

We developed a new industry-compatible ink-based process to produce efficient chalcopyrite CuIn1-xGaxSe2 thin-film solar cells. Metallic In and Ga nanoparticles were produced by purely physical methods, using a low-cost and non-explosive solvent. The solve ...

Analysis of N-nitrosamines and other nitro(so) compounds in water by high-performance liquid chromatography with post-column UV photolysis/Griess reaction

Urs von Gunten, Minju Lee, Yun Ho Lee

Despite their potential carcinogenicity and probable formation during water disinfection processes, little is known about the occurrence of other nitro(so) compounds than a few specific N-nitroso compounds such as N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). An analytic ...

Investigation of fast ion transport in TORPEX

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Kyle Gustafson, Alexandre Dominique Bovet

Basic aspects of fast ion transport in ideal interchange-mode unstable plasmas are investigated in the simple toroidal plasma device TORPEX. Fast ions are generated by a miniaturized lithium 6+ ion source with energies up to 1 keV, and are detected using a ...
