Measurement results, obtained with a CAMECA IMS 7f-auto, of an as-deposited sample and a sample after 500°C thermal treatment.

The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces by surfactant self-assembly is emerging as an important and more common structural signature associated with a...

The aim of this work is to investigate the residual stresses induced by plasma transferred arc deposition of an iron-based hard-facing alloy (Norem©) on stainless steel (316L)....

Due to the strong influence of interface, layer thickness and film surface quality on the efficiency of multi-layer dielectric thin film based devices, a careful analysis of...

Conjugated organic semiconductors form an exciting class of materials that can be used in a variety of cutting edge technologies including organic light-emitting diodes (OLED),...

Although the preparation of lamellar mesoporous materials (LMMs) is very difficult due to collapsion in removing the templating surfactant, we have successfully synthesized a...

Tuning the colour of electrochromic conducting polymers can be achieved by layer upon layer deposition of multiphase components. This approach can offer advantages over other...

Studying surfactant and mixed surfactant adsorption on model solid surfaces, which mimic real surfaces such as fabrics, hair and skin, is starting to provide a real insight into...

In addition to smoothing and self-affine roughening ion bombardment of solid surfaces can result in ripple and dot structures with nanometer scale dimensions. This method...
