In this work we have investigated the functioning of high resistivity amorphous silicon and silicon-rich nitride layers as a protection against discharges in Micro-Patterned Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs). When the anode is protected by a high resistivity layer ...
Continuous hot-dip galvanization is a process during which steel sheets are coated with a layer of Zn-Al alloy to protect them against corrosion. As the name indicates, this is achieved by dipping the preheated sheet into a bath of molten alloy. The sheet ...
Nickel oxide and yttria doped zirconia composite strength is crucial for anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells, especially during transient operation, but also for the initial stacking process, where cell curvature after sintering can cause problems. This ...
This thesis focuses on the degradation pathways occurring in composite solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathodes based on lanthanum-strontium manganite (LSM), combining modeling at the electrode level with experimental data. LSM composite electrodes are one of ...
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 ...
Preparation of homogeneous and stable inorganic coatings on the surface of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was studied. Precursor compounds such as titanium (IV) bromide and titanium (IV) chloride were used to cover the surface of CNTs under either solv ...
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 ...
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 ...
In this paper, the development of a low temperature bonding process focused on indium-based technology for microfabricated alkali cells is presented. The intended application is the use of these cells in chip scale atomic clocks. The existing technology is ...
Iridium dioxide electrodes form part of the dimensionally stable anodes (DSA®) and this electrode material is widely used in many industrial processes namely water electrolysis, metal electro-winning, cathodic protection and electro-organic synthesis due t ...
