Nonlinear Light Scattering and Spectroscopy of Particles and Droplets in Liquids

Sylvie Roke

Nano -and microparticles have optical, structural, and chemical properties that differ from both their building blocks and the bulk materials themselves. These different physical and chemical properties are induced by the high surface-to-volume ratio. As a ...

Reducing recombination in ZnO photoanodes for dye sensitised solar cells through simple chemical synthesis

Michael Graetzel, Vincent Laporte, Lioz Etgar

A method has been developed to synthesise zinc oxide nanowire arrays that demonstrate superior device performance compared to conventional ZnO nanowires within dye sensitised solar cells (DSSCs). This simple yet effective methodology has produced nanowires ...

Polyvalent Side Chain Peptide-Synthetic Polymer Conjugates as HIV-1 Entry Inhibitors

Harm-Anton Klok, Maarten Danial

This report describes the synthesis and properties of a series of polyvalent side chain peptide synthetic polymer conjugates designed to block the CD4 binding site on gp120 and inhibit HIV-1 entry into a host cell. The peptide sequences in the conjugates a ...

IMPEDANCES OF TWO DIMENSIONAL MULTILAYER CYLINDRICAL AND FLAT CHAMBERS IN THE NON-ULTRARELATIVISTIC CASE

Nicolas Frank Mounet

Two dimensional electromagnetic models (i.e. assuming an infinite length) for the vacuum chamber elements in a synchrotron are often quite useful to give a first estimate of the total beam-coupling impedance. In these models, classical approximations can f ...

Electrophoretic deposition of functionalized polystyrene particles for TiO2 multi-scale structured surfaces

Stefano Mischler, Johann Michler

Titanium is an interesting material for biomedical implants thanks to its physical and chemical properties. In particular, TiO2 coatings with a surface characterized by micro-patterning combined with nano-topography are extremely attractive for orthopaedic ...

Influence of Oil Type and Viscosity on Droplet Size in a Flow Focusing Microfluidic Device

Martinus Gijs, Virendra Kumar Parashar, Josias Basil Wacker

We form water-in-oil droplets in a microfluidic channel-nozzle geometry for studying the influence of viscosity of oil and of different oil classes on the droplet size. We find that the chemical structure of oil dominates over its viscosity. Our studies ar ...

VUV-induced radiation ageing processes in CsI photocathodes studied by microscopy and spectroscopy techniques

Pranav Garg

CsI thin film photocathodes of 600 nm thickness deposited on polished Al surfaces by resistive evaporation technique were studied by angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ARXPS), before and after UV-irradiation under vacuum. It is shown that the ...

Compartmentalization of Gold Nanocrystals in Polymer Microparticles using Electrohydrodynamic Co-Jetting

Francesco Stellacci

Polymer particles with micro- and nanoscale anisotropy have received increasing interest for their ability to simultaneously present different physical- and chemical properties. In this communication, we demonstrate that gold nanocrystals (NCs) can be sele ...
