Herein, we present a simple microelectrode preparation methodology consisting in coating a platinum wire or a carbon fiber with a thin insulating Parylene C film (e.g. 1–10 μm), to produce SECM probes with a small and constant probe RG (i.e. ratio between ...
The aim of the present PhD thesis is the elaboration of new, home-made Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM or NSOM), and the demonstration of its great potential for high-resolution topography and fluorescence investigations of soft and solid samp ...
The great achievement of nanotechnology is the controlled synthesis of a large variety of nanometer-size materials like needle-formed nanotubes, nanowires and two-dimensional graphene flakes. Due to their unique physico-chemical properties, these nanostruc ...
Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, exhibits excellent charge transport properties. However, due to the absence of a band gap in this two-dimensional carbon nanostructure, graphene-based field effect transistors cannot be turned off. One strategy to ...
This thesis studies the optical and electro-mechanical properties of novel atomically thin crystals. It deals with the carbon based material, graphene, and with layered transition metal dichalcogenides with the common formula MX2. The first part describes ...
We report a novel approach to the fabrication of self-aligned nanoscale trench structures in a thin polymer layer covering on conductive materials. By passing AC current through a polymer-coated nanowire in the presence of an appropriate solvent, a self-al ...
Endoscopy can be used to obtain high-resolution images at large depths in biological tissues. Usually endoscopic devices have a diameter ranging from 1 to few millimeters. Using digital phase conjugation, it is possible to adapt ultrathin multimode fibers ...
We report on the growth of palladium nanoparticles on the basal plane of as-cleaved highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) samples, and on CO2 ion sputtered nanostructured HOPG surfaces. The morphology of Pd nanostructures grown at room temperature is i ...
Topographic nanostructuring of surfaces is a promising concept, in particular to improve the bio-integration of titanium orthopedic implants. In this context, a new method for the nanostructuring of anodised titanium surfaces was developed. Ordered topogra ...
Interest in high resolution imaging techniques has recently multiplied due to their importance in bio-medical research. Quantitative phase measurements by holographic microscopy is an extraordinary tool to gain new understanding of transparent biological s ...
