The adsorption of trimesic acid (TMA) on Cu(110) has been studied in the temperature range between 130 and 550 K and for coverages up to one monolayer. We combine scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), reflection absor ...
In this work the development of a low-temperature scanning probe microscope and the investigation of thin insulating films at the atomic limit is presented. The scanning probe microscope has been designed in a modular way to provide large flexibility for t ...
Organic–inorganic hybrid materials were prepared using the sol–gel process in order to improve the scratch resistance of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) substrates. Sol–gel solutions based on tetraethoxysilane and α,ω-triethoxysilane terminated polycaprol ...
Sub-ppm (HCl) and (H2O) monitoring using photoacoustic spectroscopy is reported in optical fibre manufacturing for the production of low-water-peak fibres. Contamination sources of the carrier gas used for fibre preforms manufacturing were identified and d ...
This thesis reports on the design and construction of a novel experimental setup for the study of surface magnetic systems. This setup consists of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) designed for ultra high vacuum (UHV) operating at T ≲ 1 K and str ...
The repetitive discoloration kinetics of the azo-dye Methyl Orange (taken as a model organic compound) was followed under solar simulated radiation (90 mW/cm2) to assess the performance of the TiO2/Tedlar® composite photocatalyst. The influence of solution ...
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 ...
The Wien2k code is widely used for the calculation of electron energy loss spectra. Low loss spectra can be calculated with the OPTIC package while core loss spectra are calculated with the TELNES program. A new version, TELNES.2, takes into account the ef ...
The importance of molecular relaxation in photoacoustic spectroscopy is discussed. The particular case of methane monitoring in dry oxygen using a 1.65-μm laser-based photoacoustic sensor is reported. The slow vibration-to-translation energy transfer occur ...
This thesis reports measurements at the single atom scale by using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). Different sample systems where analyzed with normal conducting and superconducting tips. Chapter 2 presents the t ...
