Chemical reactions and phase transformations in nanometer-size objects may happen at very short timescales, so conventional characterization tools are not applicable. A new technique combining high spatial and temporal resolution is ultrafast (or dynamic) ...
In the present paper, calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (Ca-def OHAP) has been examined in a transmission electron microscope. During the observation, the initial Ca-def OHAP was seen to transform first into a transient intermediate phase, then to a final, ...
Effects of chromium (Cr) content on types and morphologies of various phases of a newly developed Co-Ni-Al-W superalloy (Co-30Ni-6W-9Al-3Ti-1Ta) have been investigated in this study. Microstructural examinations were carried out by field-emission scanning ...
The objective of this project is to optimize the fabrication of suspended microchannels with thin walls and design the fluidic network communicating with the channels, for fluidic delivery and experiments. The project comprise the design of the channel, th ...
Compacted scaly clays are complex geomaterials widely used for the realization of dam cores and waste dump liners. This research aims to investigate the swelling/shrinkage behavior of these geomaterials subjected in an oedometric cell to complex hydromecha ...
Colicins are bacterial toxins targeting Gram-negative bacteria, including E. coli and related Enterobacteriaceae strains. Some colicins form ion-gated pores in the inner membrane of attacked bacteria that are lethal to their target. Colicin Ia was the firs ...
Four medicament delivery formulations based on 5-fluorouracil in a chitosan substantial matrix were realized in situ via 3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal element hydrogelation. Representative samples of the final realized compounds were investigated from an ana ...
The limitations and potential complications correlated with autogenous bone grafts have raised interest in the development of synthetic bone graft substitutes. ß-tricalcium phosphate (ß-TCP) is one of the most promising materials for synthetic bone graft s ...
In recent decades, in situ electron microscopy has attracted considerable attention. The method enables real time observations of the transformations of nanoparticles under various stimuli with atomic spatial resolution. Time-resolved electron microscopy ...
Conventional electron microscopy operates with flat electron wave fronts. Employing attenuative or electrostatic phase plates allows transversally modulating the wave front, enhancing cross-sections of particular scattering channels. Utilization of light f ...
