Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
It is well known that the electrostatic repulsions between charges on neighboring sites decrease the effective charge at the surface of a charged nanoparticle (NP). However, the situation is more complex close to a dielec. discontinuity, since charged site ...
Since few decades the search of new catalysts formulations for fuel cell applications has motivated numerous projects especially due to the future lack of fossil fuel, environmental and economical reasons. Consequently, Direct Alcohol Fuel Cell (DAFC) or D ...
Using petrol as a main source of energy, during the 20th century, has caused considerable amounts of damage among which are atmospheric pollution and global warming. At the same time, many geologists and economists expect that the discovery rate of new pet ...
We introduce a new method for performing and miniaturizing many types of heterogeneous catalysis involving nanoparticles. The method makes use of the plasmon resonance present in nanoscale metal catalysts to provide the necessary heat of reaction when illu ...
Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) is composed of 2130 identical coat protein subunits following the right-handed helix of an accompanying RNA strand to produce a 300 nm hollow cylinder with an outer diameter of 18 nm and a 4 nm wide central channel. In this work, ...
The search of new energy sources has motivated during the last few years numerous research projects due to environmental, economical and political reasons. One of the main subjects of these works is the development of fuel cells. Within this framework the ...
Two thermoresponsive polymers, poly(3-ethyl-1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) and poly(3-butyl-1-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone), with very sensitive and reversible temp.-dependent water soly. were described. The application of these polymers as Au nanocatalyst stabilizers lead ...
Au/TiO2 nanocomposite particles were synthesized by a method based on intense X-ray irradiation without adding any reducing agent or stabilizer. The nanocomposite exhibits promising photocatalytic and biological properties at physiologically relevant conce ...
Platinum nanoparticles have here been synthesized via the microemulsion method that isolates the reactive species from the whole medium into compartmentalized nanoreactors. Such synthesized Pt nanoparticles have diam. included in the 2-5 nm range domain wi ...
Poly(maleic anhydride-alt-1-octadecene), a cheap and com. available polymer, was used to water-solubilize colloidal nanocrystals with various compns., morphologies, and sizes. Highly pure nanoparticles with homogeneous distributions of sizes and surface ch ...
