Electrochemistry and biochemistry have always been ideal applications for diamond due to its chemical inertness and stability, sensitivity and biocompatibility. Several diamond ChemFET concepts have been proposed to date, however further improvements are s ...
We have investigated some anodic and cathodic transformations using boron doped diamond (BDD) electrodes. The oxidn. of a propargylic alc. as well as the arom. side chain oxidn. in water as electrolyte did not yield the desired products in high yield and s ...
This paper deals with the electrochem. reactivity of B doped diamond (BDD) electrodes. A comparative study was carried out to show the influence of the presence of graphitic micro-domains upon the surface of these films. Those graphitic domains are sometim ...
We study by means of ab initio calculations the ideal tensile and shear strengths of the C-46 clathrate phase. While its bulk modulus and elastic constants are smaller than in diamond, its strength is found to be in all directions larger than the critical ...
The occurrence of heterostructures of cubic silicon/hexagonal silicon as disks defined along the nanowire < 111 > growth direction is reviewed in detail for Si nanowires obtained using Cu as catalyst. Detailed measurements on the structural properties of b ...
Two methods were used for the deposition of Pt particles on synthetic B-doped diamond (BDD) surfaces: chem. deposition and electrodeposition under potentiostatic conditions. However, electrodeposition leads much higher Pt dispersion than chem. deposition. ...
A heat sink that is particularly suitable for semiconductor components is made from a diamond-containing composite material. In addition to a diamond fraction amounting to 40-90% by volume, the composite material also contains 7 to 59% by volume copper or ...
We give a process calculus model that formalizes a well known algorithm (introduced by Chandra and Toueg) solving consensus in the presence of a particular class of failure detectors (Diamond S); we use our model to formally prove that the algorithm satisf ...
The concept of non-diamond sp2 impurity states as charge transfer mediators on boron-doped diamond (BDD) surface was suggested as an explanation for the electrochem. behavior of synthetic diamond-based electrodes. To verify this concept, graphite particles ...
Diamond films with different levels of doping have been the subject of applications and fundamental research in electrochemistry, opening up a new branch known as the electrochemistry of diamond. The electrochemical properties of diamond mostly depend on t ...
