The aim of our experiments was the production of helically coiled carbon nanotubes selectively. The influence of catalytic particles prepared by ball milling (dry and wet method) was investigated on the growth. of coiled carbon nanotubes under conditions. ...
Since the end of the last century, Cu damascene integration scheme has been the favoured choice for advanced interconnect technologies. Indeed, due to the lowest Cu bulk resistivity and to it higher resistance to electromigration, performances enhancement ...
In the quest of materials for the first wall of the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic / martensitic (F/M) steels appear to be promising candidates. The inherent good mechanical properties supported b ...
Syntheses of ZSM-5 coatings on stainless steel plates were carried out via the substrate heating method. The reaction mixture was kept at temperatures below 100 °C, while the metal plates were heated to temperatures above 100 °C. It was demonstrated that c ...
Degradation observed on long term stack tests may be explained in part by microstructural changes of the electrodes. Particularly at the anode side, the coarsening of nickel particles will affect its performances. Increasing the metal particle size will fi ...
Intergranular penetration of liquid bismuth has been analysed in two pure metals, Cu at 500°C and Ni at 700°C, used either as polycrystals or as oriented bicrystals. At the liquid/solid interface, large grooves have developed in Cu-Bi, while micrometer-thi ...
We report on an annealing-induced "gate sinking" effect in a 2-nm-thin In0.17Al0.83N/AlN barrier high electron mobility transistor with Ir gate. Investigations by transmission electron microscopy linked the effect to an oxygen containing interlayer between ...
The goal of the present study was to assess the possibility to change the composition of a calcium phosphate scaffold from a high-temperature phase to a phase only stable at or close to room temperature without macrostructural changes. For that purpose, ma ...
Focused electron- and ion-beam induced processing are well established techniques for local deposition and etching that rely on decomposition of precursor molecules by irradiation. These high-resolution nanostructuring techniques have various applications ...
Be has a tendency to form particularly brittle intermetallics with Cu and a lot of other elements. Insertion of interlayers may be a solution to increase bond quality. Ion Beam Analysis (IBA) methods have been considered together with scanning electron mic ...
