We present the first experimental study of time-resolved fluorescence from laser-excited Cs(6P(1/2)) atoms isolated in a solid He-4 matrix. The results are compared to the predictions of the bubble model including the interaction of the atomic dipole with ...
While studies of solidification microstructures have focused mainly on the tips of the dendrites, the last stage solidification is equally important from the point of view of defect formation (porosity, hot tearing), mechanical strength build-up and precip ...
Water is arguably the most important constituent of microbial microhabitats due to its control of physical and physiological processes critical to microbial activity. In natural environments, bacteria often live on unsaturated surfaces, in thin (micrometri ...
The application of a novel voltammetric probe, based on an individually addressable gel-integrated microelectrode array (IA-GIME), for real-time, high-spatial resolution concentration profile measurements at interfaces is described. Reliability and validit ...
The charge "belonging" to a given atom in a condensed system is not a measurable quantity, and can be defined only by means of some arbitrary model and/or theory: the static dipole (or multipole) associated with a given molecule in a molecular solid or liq ...
A 2D phase-field model has been developed in order to describe the morphology of a pore forming within interdendritic liquid channels and the geometrical effect of mechanical contacts with neighboring solid. The distribution of the solid, liquid and gas ph ...
In this paper, a new and simple silicon straight tube is tested as a fluid density sensor. The tube structure has a hexagonal cross section. The fabrication process consists of anisotropic silicon etching and silicon fusion bonding. A tube structure with a ...
A numerical model for the three-dimensional simulation of liquid-gas flows with free surfaces is presented. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are assumed to hold in the liquid domain. In the gas domain, the velocity is disregarded, the pressure is ...
Various 1D and 2D scanning probe arrays with integrated piezoresistive sensors have been developed in view of nanobiology and life science applications. For such applications, the experiments need usually to be performed under liquid conditions. The probe ...
