Dielectric relaxation spectroscopy 10^-1 Hz to 10^6 Hz) is employed to study the molecular dynamics of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS, Mw=1.7 10^5 g/mol and Mw=9.6 10^4 g/mol as grafted films with thicknesses d below and above the radius of…
By applying a slow curing process, we show that biomolecules can be incorporated via a simple process as liquid stable phases inside a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. The process is carried out under mild conditions with regards to…
Flexible microfluidics have found extensive utility in the biological and biomedical fields. A leading substrate material for compliant devices is polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Despite its many advantages, PDMS is inherently hydrophobic and…
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films possess different chemical and physical properties based on surface modification. The bond structure of pristine PDMS films and plasma treated PDMS films differ in a particular region of silicate bonds. We…
The process of ageing in rubbers requires monitoring over long periods (days to years). To do so in non-conducting rubbers, small amounts of carbon-black particles were dispersed in a fractal network through the rubber matrix, to make the…
The evolution over time of the non-linear slip behavior of a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymer melt on a weakly adsorbing surface made of short non-entangled PDMS chains densely end-grafted to the surface of a fused silica prism has been…
We fabricated thin-films made from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with embedded high-index (n~1.9-2.2) microspheres for super-resolution imaging applications. To control the position of microspheres, such films can be translated along the…
We report on the delamination of thin ($\approx \mu$m) hydrogel films grafted to silicon substrates under the action of swelling stresses. Poly(dimetylacrylamide) (PDMA) films are synthesized by simultaneously cross-linking and grafting…
Density of the polyacrylamide ultrathin films has been studied using X-ray reflectivity technique. Two sources (one powder and another aqueous solution) of polyacrylamide were used to prepare spin coated films on silicon substrate. Light…
Heat exchangers are made of metals because of their high heat conductivity and mechanical stability. Metal surfaces are inherently hydrophilic, leading to inefficient filmwise condensation. It is still a challenge to coat these metal…
Atactic polystyrene of two different molecular weights (560900 g.mol-1 and 212400 g.mol-1) have been studied as spin-coated films of thickness varying from ~30 nm to ~250 nm, i.e., ~2Rg to ~12Rg where Rg is the unperturbed radius of…
We present a non-destructive, spatially resolved thickness characterization method for rhombohedral (3R) molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates. Unlike broadband spectroscopic approaches, the proposed…
The effect of the adsorption of a polypeptide on the lateral interaction of dimyristoylphosphatidylserine molecules in different phase states on the surface of a 10\,mM KCl aqueous solution has been studied. Changes in the surface pressure…
A molecular dynamics simulation of sublimation of silicene and silicon films of different thikness is performed. It is shown that thiner films sublimate at lower temperatures. The sublimation temperature comes to a saturated value of…
The molecular structure of dimyristoyl phosphatidylserine (DMPS) monolayers on a water substrate in different phase states has been investigated under normal conditions by X-ray reflectometry with a photon energy of ~ 8 keV. According to…
1.8 micrometer-thick magnesium hydride films were synthesized in a single-step process by reactive plasma-assisted sputtering. The MgH2 thin films, which were deposited on two types of flexible surfaces (namely graphite and polyimide foils)…
Dewetting of thin polystyrene films deposited onto silicone wafers at temperatures close to the glass transition exhibits unusual dynamics and front morphologies. Here, we present a new theoretical approach of these phenomena taking into…
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a widely used organosilicon polymer often employed in formulations with fine oxide particles for various high temperature applications. Although PDMS is considered to be thermally stable and chemically inert,…
We present the results of a systematic study of Knudsen s flow of Rb atoms in cylindrical capillary cells coated with a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) compound. The purpose of the investigation is to determine the characterization of the…
Robotic stacking of van der Waals heterostructures has been at the verge thanks to the convergence between artificial intelligence (AI) and two-dimensional (2D) materials research. Key ingredients to fulfill this pursuit often include…
