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.
The atomic force microscopy in ultrahigh vacuum and at low temperature demonstrated its excellent capability to reach atomic resolution. Nevertheless in the case of biological samples high resolution has been achieved only in very few cases. We demonstrate ...
Silicon and silicon nitride surfaces have been successfully terminated with carboxylic acid monolayers and investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM). On clean Si surface, AFM showed topographical variat ...
Phase contrast radiology using unmonochromatic synchrotron X-ray successfully imaged the grain boundaries of Al and AlZn alloy without contrast agent. Combining the high penetration of X-ray and the possibility of 3D reconstruction by tomorgraphy or stereo ...
SU-8 is a photoplastic polymer with a wide range of applications in microtechnology. Cantilevers designed for a commercial Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) were fabricated in SU-8. The mechanical properties of these cantilevers were investigated using two mic ...
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 ...
Polymeric precursor solution (Pechini method) was used to deposit LiNbO3 thin films by spin-coating on (100) silicon substrates. X-ray diffraction data of thin films showed that the increase of oxygen flow promotes a preferred orientation of (001) LiNbO3 p ...
In this work, a low-temperature thick-film dielectric consisting of a high-lead low-temperature glass with a reactive nanoscale filler is characterised to enable deposition of thick-film electronics onto substrates such as glass and metals (steel, aluminiu ...
Gradual clogging of the apertures of nanostencils used as miniature shadow masks in metal evaporations can be reduced by coating the stencil with self-assembled monolayers (SAM). This is quantified by the dimensions (height and volume) of gold features obt ...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the barrier efficiency of a thick thermal spray deposit on the alpha-titanium alloy, Ti-5Al-2.4Sn against hydrogen penetration. Therefore, a duplex coating has been applied by plasma spraying using a Sulzer Metc ...
Hot tear formation has been observed during the solidification of a succinonitrile–acetone (SCN-acetone) alloy by pulling the columnar dendrites in the transverse direction with a stick. It is observed that the cracking of the mushy zone (hot tears) always ...
