Tunable MEMS capacitors using vertical carbon nanotube arrays grown on metal lines

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Montserrat Fernandez-Bolanos Badia, Anupama Arun, Donatello Acquaviva

In this work, tunable MEMS capacitors are realized using a vertically grown carbon nanotube array. The vertical CNT array forms an effective CNT membrane, which can be electrostatically actuated like the conventional metal plates used in MEMS capacitors. T ...

Uniaxial deformation of microcellular metals: model systems and simplified analysis

Andreas Mortensen, Etienne Combaz, Sébastien Philippe Soubielle, Frédéric Diologent, Yves Conde, Randoald Müller, Jean-François Despois

Microcellular aluminium can be produced by a process known as replication; this involves the infiltration of a packed bed of NaCl particles which are subsequently leached after metal solidification. The resulting material features a uniform distribution of ...

Influence of the Arene Ligand, the Number and Type of Metal Centers, and the Leaving Group on the in Vitro Antitumor Activity of Polynuclear Organometallic Compounds

Kay Severin, Christian Hartinger, Alexey Nazarov

Dinuclear ruthenium complexes were shown to exhibit strong antiproliferative properties in human tumor cell lines. In order to extend the structure−activity relationships (SARs), a series of new RuII(arene)X complexes (X = Cl, Br, I) linked by pyridinone-b ...

Micro-, meso- and macrostructures in replicated microcellular aluminium

Yves Conde

This thesis is focused on the properties of microcellular aluminium, produced by replication processing, at the micro, meso and macrostructural level. The replication process is based on the infiltration of a porous sodium chloride (NaCl) perform with molt ...

Micro-electro-mechanical capacitors based on vertical carbon nanotube arrays

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Montserrat Fernandez-Bolanos Badia, Rita Smajda, Anupama Arun, Donatello Acquaviva

This paper explores the design and fabrication of Micro-Electro-Mechanical capacitors based on vertical carbon nanotube arrays. The devices are realized in vertically single-clamped parallel plate configurations using a dense array of vertically grown MWCN ...

Rational Design of an Organometallic Glutathione Transferase Inhibitor

Paul Joseph Dyson, Wee Han Ang

Double trouble: A hybrid org.-inorg. (organometallic) inhibitor was designed to target glutathione transferases. The metal center is used to direct protein binding, while the org. moiety acts as the active-site inhibitor (see picture). The mechanism of inh ...

Age-Hardening Response of Replicated Microcellular Al-4.5%Cu

Andreas Mortensen, Yves Conde

We study the response to age hardening of Al-4.5%Cu replicated foams with 75 and 400 pm cell sizes and with varying relative densities. The 400 mu m cell size foams have a similar behavior to the bulk alloy, whereas the 75 pm cell size foams with relative ...

Linked Metal-cluster Systems: Isolation and Characterization of {anti-[(p-cymene)RuCl]-m-[k 2-P,P';k 1-P''-(PPh2CH2)3CMe]-[AuPt3(CO)3(PCy3)3]}(PF6)2

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Christian Hartinger, Andrew Douglas Phillips, Hisham Ben Hamidane, Zoltan Beni

The new mixed-metal complex {anti-[(p-cymene)RuCl]-m-[k 2-P,P';k 1-P''-(PPh2CH2)3CMe]-[AuCl]}PF6 and its cluster deriv. {anti-[(p-cymene)RuCl]-m-[k 2-P,P';k 1-P''-(PPh2CH2)3CMe]-[AuPt3(CO)3(PCy3)3]}(PF6)2 have been prepd. and characterized. Notably, NMR sp ...

Enantiopure, supramolecular helices containing three-dimensional tetranuclear lanthanide(III) arrays: Synthesis, structure, properties, and solvent-driven Trinuclear/Tetranuclear interconversion

Marco Antonio Lama

The enantiomerically pure pinene-bipyridine-based receptor, (-) or (+) L-, diastereoselectively self-assembles in dry acetonitrile in the presence of Ln(III) ions (Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, and Tb) to give a C-3-symmetrical, pyramidal architecture with ...

Emerging Protein Targets for Anticancer Metallodrugs: Inhibition of Thioredoxin Reductase and Cathepsin B by Antitumor Ruthenium(II)-Arene Compounds

Paul Joseph Dyson, Christian Hartinger, Angela Casini

A series of ruthenium(II)-arene (RAPTA) compds. were evaluated for their ability to inhibit thioredoxin reductase (either cytosolic or mitochondrial) and cathepsin B, two possible targets for anticancer metallodrugs. In general, inhibition of the thioredox ...
