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.
Due to the importance of scanning tunneling microscopy for atomic scale research the anomalously high corrugation values on close packed metal surfaces have been the subject of debate and extensive theoretical work in the past two decades. To date it remai ...
Electron Beam Induced Deposition (EBID) allows deposition of three-dimensional micro- and nano-structures of conductive and insulating materials on a wide range of substrates. The process is based on the decomposition of molecules of a pre-selected precurs ...
Development of selective oxidation catalysts is a major concern of modern chemical industry. Among several systems, VTi-oxide based catalysts showed the most promising and versatile, able to catalyse key reactions like oxidation of o-xylene to phtalic anhy ...
We have studied systems of asymmetric coupled GaAs V-groove quantum wires, in which the electrons and holes are injected into different wires. Our experimental results indicate efficient electron and hole tunneling, despite a 7 nm thick AlGaAs tunnel barri ...
The phase behavior of a DPPC monolayer on water was studied using vibrational sum-frequency spectroscopy (VSFG) in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy. A very sharp transition from a phase with curled alkyl chains to a phase with spatially extended ch ...
Novel efficient structured combustion catalysts based on sintered metal fiber filters (MFF) were developed. To increase sp. surface area (SSA), metal fibers were coated by crack-free porous oxide films of SiO2, Al2O3, porous glass, and mesoporous SBA-15 si ...
Halogenated organic compounds are common pollutants in groundwater. Consequently, there is widespread interest in understanding the reactions of these compounds in the environment and developing remediation strategies. One area of ongoing research involves ...
Bacterial surface layers (S-layers) are extracellular protein networks that act as molecular sieves and protect a large variety of archaea and bacteria from hostile environments. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to asses the S-layer of Corynebacteriu ...
High-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy was used to study the room-temperature adsorption of CO on a Pt(111) single-crystal surface in equilibrium with the gas phase. The coverage was found to vary continuously, and over the entire range from 10(-6)-76 ...
The advent of scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) has augmented at a microscopic level the usefulness of optical spectroscopy in the region between 300 nm and 10 mum. Two-dimensional imaging of chemical constituents makes this a very attractive a ...
