Co-Adsorption of Alcohols and Water in JUK-8 Studied Using Quasi-Equilibrated Thermodesorption

JUK-8 ([Zn(oba)(pip)]n, oba2- = 4,4 '-oxybis(benzenedicarboxylate), pip = 4-pyridyl-functionalized benzene-1,3-dicarbohydrazide) is a hydrolytically stable flexible metal-organic framework. Owing to its unusual adsorptive properties, JUK-8 can be considere ...

Selective area epitaxy of GaAs: the unintuitive role of feature size and pitch

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Lucas Güniat, Didem Dede, Valerio Piazza, Martin George Friedl, Elif Nur Dayi, Nicholas Paul Morgan, Akshay Balgarkashi, Vladimir Dubrovskii

Selective area epitaxy (SAE) provides the path for scalable fabrication of semiconductor nanostructures in a device-compatible configuration. In the current paradigm, SAE is understood as localized epitaxy, and is modelled by combining planar and self-asse ...

Bond-selective and surface-site-specific dissociation of methane on platinum

Ana Gutiérrez González

I present a molecular beam study of methane dissociation on differ-ent surface sites of several platinum single crystal surfaces (Pt(111), Pt(211), Pt(210), Pt(110)-(2x1)). The experiments were performed in a molecular beam/surface-science apparatus that c ...

Surface Reaction Kinetics of Titanium Isopropoxide and Water in Atomic Layer Deposition

Patrik Willi Hoffmann, Yury Kuzminykh, Michael Oliver Reinke

In atomic layer deposition processes (ALD), surface reactions of adsorbed precursor species lead to the formation of thin films. In order to achieve a well-controlled, self-limiting process, the substrate is sequentially exposed to different precursor mole ...

Development of Adsorbents for Selective Volatile Organic Compounds Removal from Diluted Gas Streams

Guillaume Bastien Baur

Contamination of the environment by anthropogenic volatile organic compounds (VOC) became of major concern during the last decades. Present in gas streams of many industrial exhausts, they are harmful and detrimental for both human health and environment e ...

Complex trend of magnetic order in Fe clusters on 4d transition-metal surfaces. I. Experimental evidence and Monte Carlo simulations

Klaus Kern, Violetta Sessi

We demonstrate the occurrence of compensated spin configurations in Fe clusters and monolayers on Ru(0001) and Rh(111) by a combination of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism experiments, first-principles calculations, and Monte Carlo simulations. Our result ...

Electronic Transport in Graphene with Aggregated Hydrogen Adatoms

Oleg Yazyev, Gabriel Albert Autes, Fernando Gargiulo, Naunidh Singh Virk

Hydrogen adatoms and other species covalently bound to graphene act as resonant scattering centers affecting the electronic transport properties and inducing Anderson localization. We show that attractive interactions between adatoms on graphene and their ...

Adsorption Properties of the Cu(115) Surface: Basic Interfaces

Amela Groso

The interfaces: K/Cu(115) and CO/Cu(115) have been characterized using surface sensitive techniques, including low energy electron diffraction and photoelectron spectroscopy. K adatoms show tendency to occupy the sites close to the step edges. At low tempe ...
