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 ...
Adsorption isotherms of carboxylate type superplasticizers with different architectures have been measured on MgO considered as a non-reactive model powder. This system allowed us to study the influence of pH, electrolyte type, concentration and ionic stre ...
Here we present the detection of ultralow concentrations of biomolecules in a device made from a polycarbonate membrane containing a network of gold nanowires and using a “contactless” impedance tomoscopy technique. The sensor comprises a thin dielectric l ...
A numerical model for the adsorption kinetics of proteins on the walls of a microchannel has been developed using the finite element method (FEM) to address the coupling with diffusion phenomena in the restricted microchannel volume. Time evolutions of the ...
A sensor for measuring adsorption on a substrate has been designed including a contactless detection scheme, called supercapacitive admittance tomoscopy (SCAT). The sensor comprises a thin dielectric layer with two parallel band electrodes on the one side ...
Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) films have attracted immense attention for both fundamental and applied research. A SAM is composed of a large number of molecules with a head group that chemisorbs onto a substrate, a tail group that interacts with the outer ...
An efficient strategy for visualizing human fingerprints on a poly(vinyldene difluoride) membrane (PVDF) by sanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) has been developed. Compared to a classical ink fingerprint image, here the ink is replaced by an aqueous ...
CuO powders with a high specific surface area are shown to be able to produce H2O2 in aqueous solution under simulated light irradiation. The highest rate of peroxide production was observed under mild experimental conditions using O2 and a large surface a ...
A device for monitoring the adsorption of target molecules on a substrate, the device comprising a substrate (1), at least a portion of which is formed as a thin dielectric layer. A first, modified surface (2) of the layer has ionizable groups of the subst ...
Hypothetical hydroxide and proton migration along the linear water chain in Aquaporin GlpF from Escherichia coli are studied by ab initio Car-Parrinello mol. dynamics simulations. It is found that the protein stabilizes a bipolar single file of water. The ...
