Formation of nacre (mother-of-pearl) is a biomineralization process of fundamental scientific as well as industrial importance. However, the dynamics of the formation process is still not understood. Here, we use scanning electron microscopy and high spati ...
The template method was used for preparing Zn1-xCoxO nanowires with x ranging from 0.01 to 0.05. Thus, electrochemical deposition was employed for filling up the pores of polycarbonate ion track nanoporous membranes with the desired material. The method al ...

Local tuning of the optical response of GaAs-based two dimensional photonic crystals (PhCs) is reported. A selective polymer infiltration technique was developed. Scanning electron microscopy and optical measurements were used to characterize the filled Ph ...
In a recent contribution, we have reported that dendrites in the aluminum-zinc binary system can change their growth direction continuously from {100} to {110} as the concentration of zinc CZn increases from 5 to 90 wt pct.[1] This was interpreted as an in ...
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 ...
In this work the effect of mixing on a sol-gel process is quantitatively investigated. Titanium dioxide synthesis from titanium tetra-isopropoxide is used as a test reaction. Solutions of titanium alkoxide in isopropyl alcohol and water in isopropyl alcoho ...
Titanium oxide (Ti(O)) xerogel films functionalized by protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) and ferrocene carboxylic acid (FCA) were deposited on indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes following a sol–gel synthesis. PPIX and FCA were first complexed to titanium oxide precu ...
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 ...
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 ...
