In this paper a nano-molding process using a nature-created master is demonstrated. The eye of night moth Agotis Exclamationis having 100 nm-scale structures on a curved surface is used as biomimetic master mold from which nanostructures are replicated ont ...
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 ...
This paper presents the state-of-the-art of nanostencil as a direct and local patterning method. Stencil lithography is a high-resolution shadow mask technique that allows structuring surfaces without using the harsh process steps typically associated with ...
The authors use glucose-binding protein (GBP) to mech. actuate a fluorescent single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT), resulting in reversible exciton quenching in response to glucose. The GBP is covalently conjugated with carboxylated poly(vinyl alc.)-wrapped ...
Nanocomposites based on an organic polymer and inorganic nanocrystals (NCs) represent a class of high impact functional materials able to convey the unique size and shape dependent properties of nano-objects to highly processable resists.[1] In this work, ...
We describe and demonstrate a new oscillator topology, the parametric feedback oscillator (PFO). The PFO paradigm is applicable to a wide variety of nanoscale devices and opens the possibility of new classes of oscillators employing innovative frequencydet ...
The topic of this dissertation is embedded into the new-born field of inorganic nanowires. The research was focused on zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires, in particular, which besides posing fundamental questions in physics, promise broad range of applications. Zn ...
In recent work, the authors have shown that d(AT)15 DNA-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are able to detect the adsorption and desorption of single mols. of nitric oxide (NO) from the surface by quenching of the near-IR fluorescence. A centra ...

The shape and dimensions of an atomic force microscope tip are crucial factors to obtain high resolution images at the nanoscale. When measuring samples with narrow trenches, inclined sidewalls near 90 or nanoscaled structures, standard silicon atomic forc ...
