In situ reduction of nickel oxide (NiO) particles is performed under 1.3 mbar of hydrogen gas (H-2) in an environmental transmission electron microscope (ETEM). Images, diffraction patterns and electron energy-loss spectra (EELS) are acquired to monitor th ...
A lamella of uranium dioxide (similar to 10 x similar to 10 x similar to 0.02-0.20 mu m) was produced by focused ion beam for transmission electron and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) examinations. This sample allows quantitative analysis of the E ...
Although the analogies between the electron energy loss spectra and X-ray absorption spectra were recognized long ago, the possibility to observe the magnetic circular dichroism in the electron microscope was demonstrated only recently. This technique comb ...
The oxidation of nickel particles was studied in situ in an environmental transmission electron microscope in 3.2 mbar of O-2 between ambient temperature and 600 degrees C. Several different transmission electron microscopy imaging techniques, electron dif ...
Electron Energy Loss Spectrometry (EELS) in Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) is a powerful tool for the investigation of the electronic structure of materials. In the low loss regime, one can access the optical properties which are governed by the di ...
The stochastic nature of biological systems makes the study of individual cells a necessity in systems biology. Yet, handling and disruption of single cells and the analysis of the relatively low concentrations of their protein components still challenges ...
The first results on a simple new process for the direct fabrication of one-dimensional superlattices using common CVD chambers are presented. The experiments were carried out in a 200 mm industrial Centura reactor (Applied Materials). Low dimensionality a ...
We propose an original approach called a "stencil-masked ion implantation process" for performing a spatially localized synthesis of a limited number of Si nanocrystals within a thin SiO2 layer. In this process, the SiO2 layer is irradiated with 1 keV sili ...
An innovative SiO2-PO43--TiO2 photocatalyst is presented which is able to bond TiO2 to Raschig rings (RR). Evidence for the formation on the catalyst surface of P = O stretching bands near 1200-1250 cm(-1) is presented by FTIR spectroscopy. The TiO2 Deguss ...
Surface processing of a Ti–6Al–4V alloy led to a complex multilayered microstructure containing several phases of the Ni–Ti–P–Al–O system, which improves the mechanical and tribological surface properties. The microstructure, chemical and phase composition ...
