In the present work, we study the effects that aggregation of humic acids in seawater, and its adsorption to surfaces, can have on the determination of Cu and Pb accumulation by phytoplankton within the context of metal bioavailability studies, using the d ...
The increasing demand for highly precise, yet compact and low power timing devices pushes the research in the field of chip scale atomic clocks (CSACs). At the heart of a CSAC, there is a vapor cell containing a few micrograms of alkali metal, such as rubi ...
Formation energies and charge transition levels of amphoteric defects in GaAs giving rise to Fermi-level pinning are calculated with hybrid functionals. The hybrid functional results indicate that previously identified defects involving the bistable nature ...
Heavy metal compounds have toxic and medicinal potential through capacity to form strong specific bonds with macromolecules, and the interaction of platinum drugs at the major groove nitrogen atom of guanine bases primarily underlies their therapeutic acti ...
The goal of this project was to develop low-firing thick-film materials systems for the fabrication of piezoresistive sensors on special steels, for the fabrication of instrumented medical devices. To this end, a series of individual thick-film materials a ...
We use the multiscale simulation approach, which combines the first-principles calculations and grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations, to comprehensively study the doping of a series of alkali (Li, Na, and K), alkaline-earth (Be, Mg, and Ca), and transit ...
Au-Ge-based alloys are potential substitutes for Pb-rich solders currently used for high-temperature applications. In the present work, the wetting behavior of two Au-Ge-X (X = Sb, Sn) ternary alloys, i.e., Au-15Ge-17Sb and Au-13.7 Ge-15.3Sn (at.%), in con ...
The present work critically reviews the scientific and patent literature on low-melting bismuth-based oxide glass frits in materials for electronics, sensors and related applications such as sealing glasses, solar cells, architectural and automotive glass, ...
Living bacteria offer an ecological and cost-effective alternative to the classical physical and chemical techniques for the treatment of environmental contaminations. Although their increasing use in toxic metal removal, systematic studies on the influenc ...
Recent developments in thick-film technology have seen the widespread introduction of lead- free alternative to traditional conductive, dielectric and overglaze compositions. Resistors, however, have lagged behind this trend, as developing balanced and wel ...
