Purpose-built metal oxide nanomaterials. The emergence of a new generation of smart materials

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

A review with 28 refs. A new concept has been developed in order to achieve a new generation of smart materials, namely purpose-built materials, modeled and designed to match the phys. and structural requirements of their applications. A model based on the ...

OH radical-initiated oxidation of organic compounds in atmospheric water phases: part 2. Reactions of peroxyl radicals with transition metals

Urs von Gunten

The aim of this series of two publications is to characterise radical reactions of organic molecules, occurring in atmospheric water phases. In this second study, the reactions occurring in a mixed peroxyl radical system generated from the OH radical attac ...

Bacteria in the Tatahouine meteorite: nanometric-scale life in rocks

Philippe Gillet

We present a study of the textural signature of terrestrial weathering and related biological activity in the Tatahouine meteorite. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy images obtained on the weathered samples of the Tatahouine meteorite and surro ...

Oxygen transport and nonstoichiometry in SrFeO3-delta

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Alexandre Closset

Chemical diffusion (D) and surface exchange (k) coefficients for SrFeO3-delta were measured using an electrochemical cell combined with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potential step technique (PS) in the temperature range of 850-915°C. A ...

Dielectric response of oxides in the weighted density approximation

Nicola Marzari

Calculations of the static dielectric response epsilon (infinity) of some simple oxide and mixed transition-metal oxide insulators using the weighted density approximation are reported, including in particular the perovskites KNbO3, KTaO3, and BaTiO3. The ...

Surface Second Harmonic generation in the Characterization of Anodic Sulphide and Oxide Films on Hg1-xCdxTe (MCT)

Pierre-François Marie Brevet

Rotation anisotropy by second harmonic generation (SHG) is carried out on epitaxial Hg1−xCdxTe (MCT) and oxide- and sulphide-covered MCT surfaces and shows the fourfold symmetry pattern expected from the {100} surface (C4v symmetry). The uneven nature of t ...

Process for producing nanostructured metal oxide thin films on substrates

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

A process for producing at least one epitaxial, nanostructured thin film of metal oxide and/or a hydrated metal oxide on at least one substrate placed in a container and a substrate/thin film thereof, comprises placing the substrate at any location in the ...

Effect of annealing in two-center holographic recording

Demetri Psaltis

Persistent holograms are recorded with red light in lithium niobate crystals doped with manganese and iron. We find that the oxidation/reduction state of the crystal has a profound impact on the recording and readout performance. The underlying physical pr ...

Synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydropyran-2-carbaldehyde derivatives

Pierre Vogel

Cycloaddition of 1,3-dibromo-2-oxyallyl cation to 2-(benzyloxymethyl)furan provided a 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]hept-6-en-3-one derivative that was transformed into (2RS,3SR,4SR,5SR,6SR)-3,4-dibromo-2-benzyloxymethyl-2,6-bis(hydroxymethy l)-4- (methoxymethyloxy)t ...

Pulsed laser deposition for in-situ photoemission studies on YBa2Cu3O7-delta and related oxide films

Giorgio Margaritondo, Marco Grioni, Davor Pavuna

We describe a new pulsed laser deposition (PLD) system that is linked to an angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) chamber at the Synchrotron Radiation Center (SRC) in Wisconsin, USA. We also discuss our first results on epitaxially grown YBa2Cu3O7-delta (YB ...
