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.
We explored degradation in electron-beam-pumped Zn1-xCdxSe/ZnSe laser structures by combining cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements in a scanning electron microscope with transmission electron microscopy. The rate of degradation, measured as the decrease o ...
The influence of neutron irradiation on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of mono- and polycrystalline molybdenum and its alloys has been investigated. Tensile specimens and 3 mm diameter discs of monocrystals of pure molybdenum and Mo-5% ...
Recently electrically conducting SPM probes were used as read/write sensor of magneto-resistive nanopillars and ferroelectric domains in the development of >1 Tb/inch2 data storage. Since metal coated (platinum (Pt) or Pt/iridium) silicon (Si) probes are n ...
During nanoindentation measurements of thin films the formation of cracks within the film as well as of pile-up or sink-in around the indent are known to affect significantly the precision of hardness and Young's modulus values. The crack pattern in brittl ...
A method for preparing and observing clay platelets for size and shape analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was developed. Samples of the clay platelets were prepared by polyelectrolyte-assisted adsorption onto a pyrolytic graphite surface. Th ...
Titanium aluminium nitride (TiAlN)-based coatings are designed specially for applications where oxidation and wear resistance are primary demands, as in the case of cutting tools. Moreover the coatings are required to be thermally stable as well as have go ...
In this paper we present our latest developments in high precision positioning and handling systems operating inside an SEM. The Laboratory in Scanning Electron Microscope concept (LAB-in-SEM) is proposed along with a description of our piezodriven manipul ...
Oriented films of tetracene and pentacene have been obtained by high vacuum sublimation onto oriented poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) substrates. Polymorphism, orientation, and morphology of the pentacene and tetracene films are studied as a function of d ...
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is used in situ to study threading dislocation terminations at the surface of GaN grown by molecular beam epitaxy on a Si(111) surface. The associated surface depressions are imaged at the nanometer scale, giving a new i ...
We present an automation technique for the growth of electron beam deposited tips on whole wafers of atomic force microscope cantilevers. This technique uses pattern recognition on scanning electron microscope images of successive magnifications to precise ...
