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.
Solid-liquid interfaces play a fundamental role in surface electrochemistry(1), catalysis(2), wetting(3), self-assembly(4) and biomolecular functions(5). The interfacial energy determines many of the properties of such interfaces, including the arrangement ...
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 ...
Si3N4 nanopores functionalized with 4–4’ bipyridyl, 3.2–6.5 nm in diameter and 30–50 nm in length, are shown to interact with single, negatively charged, coated gold nanoparticles from 2.4 to 8.9 nm diameter. It is possible to detect the interactions throu ...
In this work, molecular simulations were performed to evaluate the separation performance of two typical zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), ZIF-68 and ZIF-69, for CO2/N2, CO2/CH 4, and CH4/N2 mixtures. To do this, we first identified a suitable force ...
Control of silver nanoparticles characteristics using a dedicated nano-clusters source and wavelength tuning of Plasmon resonance generated by small nanoparticles using different matrices. The results have been validated by advanced surface Plasmon modelin ...
Well-defined and perfectly dispersed [(square SiO)Au(1)] surface species supported on silica have been obtained via surface organometallic chemistry and transformed upon mild reduction (H(2), 300 degrees C) into small (1.8 +/- 0.6 nm) Au particles supporte ...
Capillarity is pivotal to many important technologies, including capillary self-alignment and self-assembly for heterogeneous microsystem integration and packaging. Lateral capillary forces ensuing from perturbed fluid menisci were the object of substantia ...
We here report improved synthesis and in vitro interactions of amphiphilic hydrogel nanoparticles with the macrophage cell line J774A.1. Nanoparticles comprising dispersed hydrophobic nanodomains of poly(propylene glycol) within a continuous phase of hydro ...
Nanoparticles working together. Thermoresponsive polymer-coated nanoparticles are shown to display size dependent, cooperative, lower critical solution temperature behavior. This is exploited to direct the assembly of appropriate nanoparticles onto complem ...
Molecular dynamics simulations were used to investigate possible explanations for experimentally observed differences in the growth modification of calcite particles by two organic additives, polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyaspartic acid (p-ASP). The more r ...
