We identified the nature of the chemical reaction between silver and the cleaved surface of BiCaSrCuO at room temperature as a Bi-Ag reaction with Bi segregation, accompanied by interaction with the Sr atoms. Our synchrotron-radiation photoemission spectra ...
In this work, for the first time, a dynamic electrical control of the wetting behavior of liquids on nanostructured surfaces, which spans the entire possible range from the superhydrophobic behavior to nearly complete wetting, has been demonstrated. Moreov ...
Shore protection in confined water bodies is of major importance in Switzerland where many lakes suffer severe shore erosion. It occurs mainly in shallow zones due to several reasons such as: the fluctuations of the water level , the wind-wave impact durin ...
This study has characterized the energetics of both the liquid state and the solid state of two commercially available epoxy resins: a DGEBA- and a TGMDA-based epoxy system. The surface properties of the liquid epoxies were evaluated by wetting measurement ...
The dynamic of a cavitation bubble inside a water drop is investigated in microgravity in order to analyze the interaction between the collapsing bubble and a quasispherical free surface. Tests are carried in the frame of the 42nd parabolic flight campaign ...
The voltage-induced assembly of mercaptosuccinic acid-stabilized Au nanoparticles of 1.5 ± 0.4 nm diameter is investigated at the polarizable water|1,2-dichloroethane interface. Admittance measurements and quasi-elastic laser scattering (QELS) studies reve ...
