Filling Kinetics of Liquids in Nanochannels down to 27 nm Deep by Capillary Force

We report the filling kinetics of different liquids in nanofabricated capillaries with rectangular cross-section by capillary force. Three sets of channels with different geometry were employed for the experiments. The smallest dimension of the channel cro ...

Are organic surfactants ubiquitous?

Athanasios Nenes

Quantifying the effect of water soluble organic compounds (WSOC) on cloud droplet activation constitutes a major source of uncertainty in aerosol-cloud climate interaction studies. This study focuses on characterizing the WSOC found in a diverse set of aer ...

Surface modification of PVC endotracheal tubes by oxygen glow discharge to reduce bacterial adhesion

Karine Triandafillu

A d.c. oxygen glow discharge was used to modify medical-grade poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) to study how surface chemistry and hydrophilicity influence Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhesion. The effects of plasma exposure time on the resulting surface, including ch ...

A 5% efficient photoelectrochemical solar cell based on nanostructured ZnO electrodes

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

Nanoporous ZnO electrodes, dye-sensitized with a ruthenium bipyridyl complex, were used as photoanodes in photoelectrochem. solar cells. By improving the interfacial contact between dyes and ZnO particles in the film, overall solar-to-elec. energy conversi ...

Surface modification of polyester films by RF plasma

Christoph Hollenstein, John Christopher Plummer, Nicolas Xanthopoulos

Plasma treatment of PET films was carried out under argon, followed by exposure to an oxygen atmosphere. The films underwent considerable changes in surface composition and morphology, as demonstrated by contact angle measurements, FTIR-ATR, AFM, and XPS. ...

Measurement of interfacial areas in gas-liquid dispersions by ultrasonic pulse transmission

Urs von Stockar

An ultrasound pulse transmission technique was studied as an alternative means of measuring the specific interfacial area (a) in gas-liq. reactors. Characterization of gas-liq. dispersions using ultrasound can be a very valuable alternative in situations i ...
