In this work a prototype of micro force sensor of range μN...mN is presented. Instead of the traditional piezoresistive strain sensing through thick-film resistors used for higher forces, a more effective principle is used: measurement of beam displacement ...
Antioxidant redox sensors based on DNA modified carbon screen-printed electrodes were developed. The carbon ink was doped with TiO2 nanoparticles, onto which double- strand DNA was adsorbed. A redox mediator, namely, tris- 2,2′-bipyridine ruthenium(II) [Ru ...
In this work, the voltammetric charge and work function of Rh catalyst were studied to clarify the origin of electrochem. promotion. The measures were carried on at 375 Deg, either in a non-reactive oxygen/helium gas mixt. or under complete oxidn. of propy ...
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 describes the characterization and application of electrically insulated conductive tips mounted on a cantilever for use in an atomic force microscope and operated in liquid. These multifunctional probes were microfabricated and designed for mea ...
Dimensionally Stable Anodes (DSA®) are electrodes composed of a metal support and an oxide coating (catalyst). Particularly in this thesis, the Ti/IrO2 electrode was used for the study of the fraction of the surface which participates effectively in the in ...
A complexing gel integrated microelectrode (CGIME) for direct measurements of free metal ion concentrations in natural waters has been developed. It is prepared by the successive deposition of microlayers of a chelating resin, an antifouling agarose gel an ...
Electro-oxidn. of platinum film electrode deposited on yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is examd. in situ using potential programmed voltammetry at 450 DegC in oxygen contg. atm. Under prolonged anodic oxidn. different sorts of oxidized species are formed ...
We report the first experimental demonstration of pulse advancement with gain in optical fibers based on stimulated Brillouin scattering. Two experimental configurations are investigated and compared. One is to make the pulse propagate in a region slightly ...
The electrochem. properties of IrO2 nanoparticles deposited on a synthetic boron-doped diamond surface (BDD/IrO2) were investigated. After a description of the prepn. procedure by thermal decompn. technique, the morphol. characterization of the samples by ...
