Recent work in text to speech synthesis has pointed to the benefit of using a continuous pitch estimate; that is, one that records pitch even when voicing is not present. Such an approach typically requires interpolation. The purpose of this paper is to sh ...
At present, organic molecules are among the best candidate "building blocks" for the construction of self-assembling nanoscale devices based on metal substrates. Control of the formation of specific patterns In the submonolayer regime is usually achieved b ...
Dense non-Brownian suspension flows of hard particles display mystifying properties: As the jamming threshold is approached, the viscosity diverges, as well as a length scale that can be identified from velocity correlations. To unravel the microscopic mec ...
The treatment of dispersion interactions is ubiquitous but computationally demanding for seamless ab initio approaches. A highly popular and simple remedy consists in correcting for the missing interactions a posteriori by adding an attractive energy term ...
We investigate the phase behavior of surface-functionalized silica colloids at both the molecular and macroscopic levels. This investigation allows us to relate collective properties such as aggregation, gelation, and aging directly to molecular interfacia ...
In this thesis, we proposed to study polymer-based thick-film resistors (TFRs) made of graphite particles dispersed in an epoxy matrix. Three main axes were investigated: formulation of the composites, characterization with the determination of electrical, ...
We study the phase diagram of an effective ion model of fully ionized hydrogen at ultra-high pressure. We assume that the protons interact with a screened Coulomb potential derived from a static linear response theory. This model accurately reproduces the ...
The use of nanomaterials has been shown to be promising in potential applications such as magnetic storage devices, nano-optical devices and sensors, amongst others. Such applications require the disposition of nanoparticles, of a wide variety of materials ...
This paper presents the experimental and numerical study of hydrophobic interaction forces at nanometer scale in the scope of engineering micron-sized building blocks for self-assembly in liquid. The hydrophobic force distance relation of carbon, Teflon an ...
This thesis deals with the self-organization of individual building blocks, specifically organic molecules and metal atoms, into supramolecular structures on metal surfaces under ultra high vacuum conditions (UHV). Self-organization of supramolecular syste ...
