A novel mechanism for ramified island growth in the initial stages of metal heteroepitaxy is reported. Scanning tunneling microscopy measurements reveal that copper islands on Ni(100), as they grow in size, undergo a shape transition. Below a critical size ...
A simple method has been developed for the prodn. of Au surfaces which are uniformly flat over large areas. Si wafers serve as substrates for the evapn. of thin Au layers. A glass slide glued onto the Au film allows successful sepn. of the Au layer from th ...
Lateral force microscopy in the wearless regime was used to study the friction behavior of a lipid monolayer on mica. In the monolayer, condensed domains with long-range orientational order of the lipid molecules were present. The domains revealed unexpect ...

Surface chemical composition and topography of Pt-SnO2 thin films grown by radiofrequency (rf) reactive sputtering on two different Al2O3 substrates (rough and mechanically polished) were investigated by x-ray photoemission spectromicroscopy (XPSM) and ato ...
We performed lateral force microscopy on thiolipid Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films physisorbed on mica substrates with a silicon tip of an at. force microscope. The structure of condensed domains, reflecting their sym. morphol., was obsd. The lateral (frictio ...
The aim of this work was to investigate the degradation of the anti-adhesive properties of protective PTFE films during the hot embossing of thermoplasts, and to identify possible failure causes which reduce the lifetime of these films. A comparative XPS s ...
We present the results of mol. dynamics calcns. carried out on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) formed from alkyl thiols chemisorbed on a gold (111) substrate. The alkyl tails are functionalized by polar groups (-NH2) with the potential of forming hydrogen ...
We used the novel experimental technique of photoemission spectromicroscopy to investigate the active area of SnO(x) thin films for gas sensors, deposited by dc sputtering. First, we analyzed the degree of oxidation and the homogeneity of as-deposited film ...
Single crystals of layered semiconductors such as WS2 and MoS2 have already proven their efficiency as active elements in photovoltaic cells. Due to their high optical absorption coefficient in the visible range, these materials could be used in the form o ...
Direct writing of metal features narrower than 100 nm is accomplished by scanning a focused ion beam over a substrate covered with a thin solid metalorg. film. A metalorg. cluster coordination compd. [Ir4(CO)11Br] [N(C2H5)4] is spun on an oxidized Si wafer ...
