This communication reports on the growth of highly uniform KNbO3 nanowires exhibiting a narrow diameter distribution around 60 nm and a length-to-width ratio up to 100. The nanowires were prepared by a hydrothermal route, which enables simple, gram-scale p ...
The understanding of material self-assembling and self-organization mechanisms, at mesoscale, is crucial for nanotechnologies development. Such structures, hierarchically organized in superlattices or colloïdal crystals, are observed in inorganic or organo ...
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 ...
This thesis is concerned with supramolecular architectures assembled at metal surfaces. The investigations pursued two objectives. On the one hand, the focus was placed on the fabrication of low-dimensional surface-supported network structures by applying ...
In this thesis, the use of nanotemplates for steering the molecular self-organization at metallic surfaces is investigated. Nanotemplates are surfaces that exhibit a periodic variation of the adhesion energy on the nanometer scale. Preferential adsorption ...
Light Induced Chemical Vapour Deposition (LICVD) of titanium dioxide thin films is studied in this work. It is shown that this technique enables to deposit locally and selectively a chosen crystalline phase with a precise controlled thickness at low substr ...
We investigate the interaction of Ti atoms with thin films made of 3,4,9,10 perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) molecules by means of self-consistent electronic structure calculations within a generalized gradient approximated density-functional th ...
The aim of this work is to understand the interactions and interphase formation mechanisms between a liquid aminosilane oligomer (γ -APS) and glass, steel or gold surfaces as a function of the pH of the liquid aminosilane. When basic liquid γ -APS (pH 11.4 ...
In this thesis we report investigations on supramolecular architectures assembled at well-defined metal surfaces. Supramolecular chemistry is dedicated to the study and use of non-covalent interactions to build highly organized molecular arrangements, aimi ...
Electrodeposition on Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) steps has been proven to be an easy method for the preparation of metal (Pd, Cu, Ag etc) and metal oxide or sulfide (MoO2, MnO2, MoS2) nanowires in recent years. These wires can be transferred ...
