Our work investigates the precipitation mechanism of a seeded calcium carbonate reaction, by using cryogenic TEM to observe the early stages of the reaction. The early precipitation of a hydrated phase is proposed as an intermediate phase before transforma ...
Thermonuclear fusion of light atoms is considered since decades as an unlimited, safe and reliable source of energy that could eventually replace classical sources based on fossile fuel or nuclear fuel. Fusion reactor technology and materials studies are i ...
Crystals with the scheelite structure have been grown by the Czochralski technique from a melt of composition (Na0.5La0.345Ce0.15Er0.005) MoO4 (NLM: Ce, Er) and have been characterized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy and x-ray microanalysi ...
Oxide dispersion strengthened steels based on the ferritic/martensitic steel EUROFER97 are developed. The reinforcing particles dispersed in the matrix of EUROFER97 are made of yttria and yttrium titanium oxides. Microstructure is investigated by transmiss ...
The contractile tail of bacteriophage T4 is a molecular machine that facilitates very high viral infection efficiency. Its major component is a tail sheath, which contracts during infection to less than half of its initial length. The sheath consists of 13 ...
Nanostructure ZnO hollow microspheres with average crystallite size of about 15 nm, and average diameters of about 1 mu m, were successfully fabricated through a novel hydrothermal method. Hollow microspheres were formed due to self-assembly of ZnO oblong ...
The oxygen transmission rate of 48 nm thick SiO2 coatings on a poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) substrate was reduced by a factor of three after applying an 8 nm thick layer of oligomerized gammaaminopropyltriethoxysilane (γ-APS). Increasing the thicknes ...
The possibility of controlling materials properties by tailoring their substructure at the nanometer scale is a current topic of great interest. To do so, a fundamental understanding of the growth mechanism is of key importance and an analytical challenge ...
Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy has been demonstrated as a suitable technique to characterize Si nanocrystal-based non-volatile memory devices (Carrada et al. APL 2005). These are formed by a single plane of Si nanocrystals (NCs) buried in the gate oxi ...
The understanding of material self-assembling and self-organization mechanisms, at mesoscale, is crucial for nanotechnologies development. Such structures, hierarchically organized in superlattices or colloïdal crystals, are observed in inorganic or organo ...
