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 ...
Epitaxial Laser Metal Forming (E-LMF) consists in impinging a jet of metallic powder onto a molten pool formed by controlled laser heating and thereby, generating epitaxially a single crystal deposit onto a single crystal substrate. It is a near net-shape ...
Some of the most important potential applications of carbon nanotubes are related to their mechanical properties. Stiff sp(2) bonds result in a Young's modulus close to that of diamond, while the relatively weak van der Waals interaction between the graphi ...
Catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CCVD) is currently the most promising technique to produce carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on a specific site as well as on a large-scale. Here, we review our recent experimental studies on CNTs grown by CCVD. The yield as wel ...
This thesis describes the synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and the evaluation of them as tips of atomic force microscope (AFM) probes. Both arc-discharge and CVD grown nanotubes were investigated as AFM tips. Two meth ...
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 ...
This thesis reports on the investigations performed on electrochemical functionalization and photoelectronic transport properties of individual single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The first part of the thesis is concerned with the controlled modificatio ...
Femtosecond laser irradiation has various noticeable effects on fused silica. It can locally increase the index of refraction and modify the material chemical selectivity. Regions that have been exposed to the laser are etched hundred fold faster than unex ...
Epitaxial Laser Metal Forming (E-LMF) consists in impinging a jet of metallic powder onto a molten pool formed by controlled laser heating and thereby, generating epitaxially a single crystal deposit onto the damaged component. This new technique aims to b ...
Low energy femtosecond laser pulses locally increase the refractive index and the hydro-fluoric acid etching rate of fused silica. These phenomena form the basis of a direct-write method to fabricate integrated glass devices that are of particular interest ...
