Quantum state-resolved studies of direct and precursor-mediated dissociative chemisorption of silane on Si(100)

In this work, I present the results of my studies on the state-resolved reactivity of silane (SiH4) on the Si(100)-(2x1) surface. The results demonstrate a co-existence of both a direct and a precursor mediated mechanisms for the dissociative chemisorption ...

Automatic detection of reaction start/endpoints in chemical and biotechnological reaction systems

Simon Crelier, Michael Amrhein

A classification methodology for the automatic detection of start- and endpoints of chemical and biotechnological reaction systems from spectral reaction data is proposed. In the calibration phase, several batch experiments must be conducted covering the e ...

Simplified approaches to mid-infrared spectrometers calibration for bioprocess monitoring applications

Jonas Schenk

This thesis aimed at developing new, simple methods of calibration for on-line monitoring of bioprocesses by Fourier-transform mid-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The conventional calibration approach implies the preparation and measurement of a large number ...

Conformation-specific spectroscopy and photodissociation of cold, protonated tyrosine and phenylalanine

Thomas Rizzo, Monia Guidi, Sébastien Mercier, Caroline Seaiby

We present here ultraviolet and infrared spectra of protonated aromatic amino acids in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. Ultraviolet photofragmentation spectra of protonated tyrosine and phenylalanine show vibronically resolved bands corresponding to different sta ...

Spectroscopic signatures of gas-phase helices: Ac-Phe-(Ala)5-Lys-H+ and Ac-Phe-(Ala)10-Lys-H+

Thomas Rizzo

We apply gas-phase double resonance spectroscopic techniques to two helical peptides, Ac-Phe-(Ala)5-Lys-H+ and Ac-Phe- (Ala)10-Lys-H+, using electrospray ionization combined with photofragmentation in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. Despite the large size of the ...

Model-Based deduction of CMYK Surface Coverages from Visible and Infrared Spectral Measurements of Halftone Prints

Roger Hersch, Thomas Bugnon, Mathieu Brichon

The Yule-Nielsen modified Spectral Neugebauer reflection prediction model enhanced with an ink spreading model provides high accuracy when predicting reflectance spectra from ink surface coverages. In the present contribution, we try to inverse the model, ...

Electrostatically actuated micromirror for resonant cavity enhanced detectors

Niels Quack

This paper presents the design, fabrication and measurement results of a vertically moving, electrostatically actuated micromirror. The single crystalline silicon substrate allows the design of a symmetrical and mechanically stable mirror suspension while ...

Pressure-Induced Chemical Decomposition and Structural Changes of Boric Acid

Philip Pattison, Vladimir Dmitriev

A combined synchrotron X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering, and infrared spectroscopy study of the pressure-induced changes in H3BO3 to 10 GPa revealed a new high-pressure phase transition between 1 and 2 GPa followed by chemical decomposition into cubic H ...

Measurement and modelling of semi-batch reactions using small-scale reaction calorimetry, in-situ spectroscopy and gas consumption/production

Julien Léo Billeter, Konrad Hungerbühler

The rapid and complete characterization of chemical reaction mechanisms is of the utmost importance in terms of chemical understanding, safety and efficiency. In this presentation a new small volume reaction calorimeter (25-45mL) is described. With this re ...

Dielectric and infrared properties of ultrathin SiO2 layers on Si(100)

Alfredo Pasquarello

The occurrence of an ultrathin SiO2 oxide layer at the interface between silicon and high-k dielectrics in metal-oxide-semiconductor devices contributes to degrading the capacitance of the gate stack. In this work, we investigate the dielectric and infrare ...
