A large improvement of the electrochemical capacitive detection of ssDNA and antigens by using ethylene-glycol alkanethiol monolayers has been recently demonstrated. Alkanethiol monolayers without ethylene-glycol functionalization do not show the required ...
This review addresses catalytic/photocatalytic films under visible light inducing fast bacterial inactivation. These films present uniform, stable and adhesive surfaces able to inactivate bacteria within minutes. Uniform sputtered polyethylene-TiO2 (PE-TiO ...
We used pulsed laser deposition, with a Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x target, to grow films ranging from (1/4) to 10 unit cells thick. We studied these films, and reference Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x single crystal samples, using angle-integrated photoemission, core level photoemi ...
The electrodeposition of stainless steel-like FeCrNi alloys for miniaturised devices is appealing as it would allow combining excellent material properties (e.g. corrosion resistance, hardness, biocompatibility) at low-cost. However, conventional baths oft ...
This work aims to understand how nanocellulose (NC) processing can modify the key characteristics of NC films to align with the main requirements for high-performance optoelectronics. The performance of these devices relies heavily on the light transmittan ...

Weak field piezoelectric coefficient and strain were investigated in ferroelectric SrBi2Ta2O9 (SET) thin films by means of optical interferometry. Though the maximum polarization and dielectric constant were small enough (7 mu C/cm(2) and 150, respectively ...

Physisorbed and covalently bound Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) monolayers of sulfur-bearing lipids on mica and on gold substrates, resp., have been studied. Scanning force microscopy, in topog. and friction modes as well as in contact and non-contact modes have b ...
