Theoretically and experimentally we have proved the existence of optimal thickness of the porous layer used as an anti-reflection coating in solar cells. We have taken into account the joint mechanisms of generation and recombination of…
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a semiconductor used in quantum information processing, microelectromechanical systems, photonics, power electronics, and harsh environment sensors. However, its high temperature stability, high breakdown voltage,…
Elastomers swollen with non-polar fluids show potential as anti-adhesive materials. We study the effect of oil fraction and contact time on the adhesion between swollen spherical probes of PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) and flat glass…
Piezoelectricity, the generation of electric charge in response to mechanical stress, is a key property in both natural and synthetic materials. This study significantly boosts the piezoelectric response of chitosan, a biodegradable…
Silicon nanowires are prepared by the method of the two-step metal-assisted wet chemical etching. We have analyzed the structure of solid, rough and porous nanowire surfaces of boron-doped silicon substrates with resistivities of \rho >…
The interface between two immiscible polymers, polystyrene (PS) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), was studied by neutron reflectivity and dewetting by using free PS chains and PDMS brushes. Unexpectedly, we found that the PS chains diffuse…
Wet etching is an essential and complex step in semiconductor device processing. Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching (MacEtch) is fundamentally a wet but anisotropic etching method. In the MacEtch technique, there are still a number of…
Pattern transfer by deep anisotropic etch is a well-established technique for fabrication of nanoscale devices and structures. For this technique to be effective, the resist material plays a key role and must have high resolution,…
We investigate the etching characteristics of PIN-PMN-PT crystals, exploring various wet etching solutions, reactive ion etching gases, and ion beam etching. The etch rate and surface roughness are systematically measured for each method. A…
This paper provides a unique and to the best of our knowledge first-of-a-kind attempt to develop chemical processes that may contribute to the volume reduction of SMR TRISO-based fuels and aims at the eventual ability to reprocess the spent…
Electrochemically mediated selective adsorption is an emerging electrosorption technique that utilizes Faradaically enhanced redox active electrodes, which can adsorb ions not only electrostatically, but also electrochemically. The superb…
In this work, 6 to 12 nm iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized and coated with poly(acrylic acid) chains of molecular weight 2100 g/mol. Based on a quantitative evaluation of the dispersions, the bare and coated particles were…
This paper reports a few-layer black phosphorus thickness pattern fabricated by a top-down nanofabrication approach. This was achieved by a new wet etching process that can etch selected regions of few-layer black phosphorus with an atomic…
The slip behavior of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymer melts flowing on non-adsorbing surfaces made of short non-entangled PDMS chains densely end-grafted to silica has been characterized. For high enough shear rates, constant slip…
In this work negative-ion production on the surface of a sample negatively DC biased in a hydrogen plasma is studied. The negative ions created under the positive ion bombardment are accelerated towards the plasma, self-extracted and…
A method to fabricate GaAs microcavities using only a soft mask with an electrolithographic pattern in an inductively coupled plasma etching is presented. A careful characterization of the fabrication process pinpointing the main routes for…
Adhesion requires molecular contact, and natural adhesives employ mechanical gradients to achieve complete (conformal) contact to maximize adhesion. Intuitively, one expects that the higher the modulus of the top layer, the lower will be…
Composite cathode coatings made of a high energy density layered oxide (Li1.2Ni0.15Mn0.55Co0.1O2, theoretical capacity ~377 mAh/g), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) binder, and electron-conduction additives, were bonded to an elastic…
We performed comparative experimental investigation of superconducting NbN nanowires which were prepared by means of positive-and negative electron-beam lithography with the same positive tone Poly-methyl-methacrylate (PMMA) resist. We show…
The relative efficacy of electrochemical permeation (EP) and isothermal desorption spectroscopy (ITDS) methods for determining the hydrogen diffusivity is investigated using cold-rolled pure iron. The diffusivities determined from 13 first…
