This thesis work focuses on impact and diffusion processes as well as equilibrium positions of a metal deposited on a surface. The metal is deposited in the form of clusters containing n atoms in a controlled way. Gold or silver clusters cations (Au+n and ...
We describe a highly effective method of reducing thermal sensitivity in piezoresistive sensors, in particular silicon cantilevers, by taking advantage of the dependence of the piezoresistive coefficient of silicon on crystallographic orientation. Two simi ...
Strontium barium niobate (SrxBa1-xNb2O6, shortly SBN) is a solid solution system with tetragonal tungsten bronze crystal structure. It exhibits a ferroelectric phase with only one polar axis and a transition temperature depending on the Sr/Ba ratio. This t ...
Titanium aluminium nitride (TiAlN)-based coatings are designed specially for applications where oxidation and wear resistance are primary demands, as in the case of cutting tools. Moreover the coatings are required to be thermally stable as well as have go ...
Objective. Mechanism of calcification of cardiac valves was investigated through a comparative characterization of structure, morphology, and size of hydroxyapatite (HAP) crystals formed in mineral deposit on cardiac valves, bone tissue, and crystals synth ...
The focused electron beam induced deposition process is a promising technique for nano and micro patterning. Electrons can be focused in sub-angström dimensions, which allows atomic-scale resolution imaging, analysis, and processing techniques. Before the ...
This contribution summarizes a number of aspects of the experimental and modelling programme at JET aimed at improving the characterization and understanding of edge localized mode (ELM) transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL). Divertor target energy depos ...
We investigate the presence of secondary phases in La-doped Bi-2201 thin films grown by laser ablation. The cation ratios in the target material, the oxygen pressure, and the substrate temperature during the deposition are the main parameters determining t ...
In the framework of this thesis molecular nanostructures have been engineered on surfaces and are characterized using a variety of techniques. Two types of molecules have been used: carbon nanotubes (CNT) and 4-[trans-2-(pyrid-4-yl-vinyl)] benzoic acid (PV ...
Carbon nanofibers (CNF) were synthesized on sintered metal fibers (SMF) filters of nickel and Ni-containing alloys (Inconel, stainless steel (SS)) by thermal chemical vapor deposition of ethane in the presence of hydrogen at not, vert, similar660 °C. The C ...
