A New Method for Manufacturing Nanostructured Electrodes on Plastic Substrates

The present paper describes a new method for manufg. a nanostructured porous layer of a semiconductor material on a conducting plastic substrate for use in an electrochem. or photoelectrochem. cell. The method involves the deposition of a layer of semicond ...

Internal Stresses and Adhesion of Thin Silicon Oxide Coatings on Poly(ethylene terephthalate)

Yves Leterrier

The effect of internal stresses on the cohesion and adhesion of a thin silicon oxide (SiOx) oxygen-barrier coating, evaporated on a poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) film substrate was studied. Internal stresses were generated during annealing in the temp ...

A new method for manufacturing dye-sensitized solar cells on plastic substrates

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

The prevailing prodn. method for dye-sensitized solar cells is based on the screen-printing technique. To find an alternative method, allowing very high throughput, we have looked into the possibility of developing a continuous prodn. process. A prerequisi ...

Surface modification of polyester films by RF plasma

Christoph Hollenstein, John Christopher Plummer, Nicolas Xanthopoulos

Plasma treatment of PET films was carried out under argon, followed by exposure to an oxygen atmosphere. The films underwent considerable changes in surface composition and morphology, as demonstrated by contact angle measurements, FTIR-ATR, AFM, and XPS. ...

Scanning excimer laser ablation of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and its application to rapid prototyping of channels for microfluidics

Frank Rüdiger Wagner

Excimer Laser Ablation is a micro-machining method which has undergone an important breakthrough in the last twenty years. In contrast with most literature studies, dealing with Static Ablation, this PhD work focuses on the study of Scanning Ablation of po ...

Chemical modification and photograft polymerization upon expanded poly(tetrafluoroethylene)

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) films were surface-modified by employing a reaction solution of benzophenone and sodium hydride in anhydrous dimethylformamide at a temperature of 150 degrees C for 12 h. Electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) s ...

Optimising and extending the geometrical modeller of a physics simulation framework

The design of highly complex particle detectors used in High Energy Physics involves both CAD systems and physics simulation packages like GEANT4. GEANT4 is able to exchange detector geometries with CAD systems, conforming to the Standard for the Exchange ...

Fabrication and sintering of fine yttria-doped ceria powder

Jan Van Herle

Yttria-doped ceria powder was prepared from oxalate precursors. The oxalate coprecipitation bath parameters were closely monitored and found to influence the sintering behavior of the subsequently obtained oxide powders strongly. The use of concentrated (C ...

Fibre formation in injection moulded polyethylene-sodium lignosulphonate blends and its relationship to the morphological zones

In injection-moulded parts, the degree of orientation (anisotropy) varies over the cross-section. Normally, such parts exhibit a layered structure, with a biaxially oriented surface layer (stretching of the flow front during mould filling), a highly orient ...
