In this thesis, we present Scanning Tunneling Microscopy investigations of two-dimensional supramolecular architectures and metallic nanostructures on pre-structured surfaces. We studied different self-assembled supramolecular architectures formed by linea ...
Submonolayer epitaxial growth is obtained by the deposition of less than a complete layer of atoms on a single crystal surface. It is of fundamental interest for industrial applications (e.g. in the semiconductor industry) as well as from the point of view ...
The main objectives of this work are 2-fold : The development of a novel type of composite material based on carbon nanofibers supported on sintered metal fibers filters (CNF/SMF) and to explore the use of this material as a catalytic support for a model r ...
In light of the already proven applications of transition-metal (TM) oxide clusters, including catalysis, selective sorption, sepns., mol. recognition, environmental decontamination, and nanotechnol., one can imagine that the development of framework mater ...
Self-assembly of organic molecules represents an efficient and convenient bottom-up approach for the structural functionalization of surfaces at the nanometer scale. The great potential of assembling supramolecular architectures from organic molecules lies ...
Using first-principles calculations, we model the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on nanoparticles of late-transition (Ni, Pd, Pt) and coinage (Cu, Ag, Au) metals. The process is analyzed in terms of the binding of mono- an ...
This thesis deals with the self-organization of individual building blocks, specifically organic molecules and metal atoms, into supramolecular structures on metal surfaces under ultra high vacuum conditions (UHV). Self-organization of supramolecular syste ...
The temperature dependence of the conductivity is investigated as a function of boron doping in large-grained, degenerate polycrystalline ZnO films prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition. Carrier transport in undoped and lightly doped films is ...
Metal-organic coordination interactions are prime candidates for the formation of self-assembled, nanometer-scale periodic networks with room-temperature structural stability. We present X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements of such networks at the ...
Patterns of noble-metal structures on top of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au and SiO2 substrates have been prepared following two approaches. The first approach consists of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of Pt, Pd, Au, or Cu through nano- and microst ...
