DEVELOPMENTS ON SRF COATINGS AT CERN

The thin films techniques applied to Superconducting RF (SRF) have a long history at CERN. A large panel of cavities has been coated from LEP, to LHC. For the current and future projects (HIE-ISOLDE, HL-LHC, FCC) there is a need offurther higher RF-perform ...

2D zeolite coatings: Langmuir-Schaefer deposition of 3 nm thick MFI zeolite nanosheets

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Prashant Kumar

Stable suspensions of zeolite nanosheets (3 nm thick MFI layers) were prepared in ethanol following acid treatment, which partially removed the associated organic structure-directing agent. Nanosheets from these suspensions could then be dispersed at the a ...

Coating nanocarriers with hyaluronic acid facilitates intravitreal drug delivery for retinal gene therapy

Hendrik Georges Deschout

Retinal gene therapy could potentially affect the lives of millions of people suffering from blinding disorders. Yet, one of the major hurdles remains the delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids to the retinal target cells. Due to the different barriers that ...

In Situ Hall Effect Monitoring of Vacuum Annealing of In2O3:H Thin Films

Monica Morales Masis

Hydrogen doped In2O3 thin films were prepared by room temperature sputter deposition with the addition of H2O to the sputter gas. By subsequent vacuum annealing, the films obtain high mobility up to 90 cm(2)/Vs. The films were analyzed in situ by X-ray pho ...

Simultaneous realization of light distribution and trapping in micromorph tandem solar cells using novel double-layered antireflection coatings

Christophe Ballif, Franz-Josef Haug, Etienne Antoine Julien Moulin

Implementing antireflection (AR) coatings in micromorph tandem solar cells is a challenging process in which not only more sunlight should get conducted into the cells, but also the current matching between subcells should either be maintained or get impro ...
