The electrochemical oxidation of acidic solutions of phenol on a Ti/IrO2 anode has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and bulk electrolysis in a single-compartment cell. In the potential region of oxygen evolution, anodic oxidation resulted in electro ...
We propose a simple microfluidic device for protein preconcentration based on the electrokinetic trapping principle. It comprises a narrow Nafion strip that is simply cut from a commercial membrane and is integrated into a molded poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PD ...
Interfacing artificial functional materials and living neuronal tissues is at the forefront of bio-nanotechnology. Attempts so far have been based on microscope processing of metals, inorganic semiconductors as electrodes or photoactive layers in biased de ...
Topographic nanostructuring of surfaces is a promising concept, in particular to improve the bio-integration of titanium orthopedic implants. In this context, a new method for the nanostructuring of anodised titanium surfaces was developed. Ordered topogra ...
A method to create an array of sub-5 nm nanogaps with self-aligned holes in a protective polymer overlayer is presented. The parallel formation of the nanogaps, intended for electrical sensing of biomolecules in an aqueous environment, is achieved by elect ...
Alumina nanopores seem to be very promising concerning many applications, such as DNA analysis 1‐2, separation of molecules 3‐4 or fabrication of nanopillars 5‐6. The nanopores are made by anodization, which is a really simple fabrication process requiring ...
Copper-b-amyloid 16 (Aβ16) complexes were investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Copper(I) and (II) complexes were formed on-line in a microchip electrospray emitter by using a sacrificial copper electrode as the anode in posit ...
Interfacing artificial functional materials and living neuronal tissues is at the forefront of bio-nanotechnology. Attempts so far have been based on micro scale processing of metals, inorganic semiconductors as electrodes or photoactive layers in biased d ...
Structural reliability is a hurdle for the large-scale commercialisation of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The cells are prone to cracking, due to the brittleness of their constitutive materials. In operation, the failure of one of them can arise from the n ...
Microstructural evolution of anode supported solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) during medium-term stack testing has been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Low acceleration voltage SEM imaging is used to separate the three anode phases (nicke ...
