Analytics at the nanometer and nanosecond scales by short electron pulses in an electron microscope

Thomas La Grange

Chemical reactions and phase transformations in nanometer-size objects may happen at very short timescales, so conventional characterization tools are not applicable. A new technique combining high spatial and temporal resolution is ultrafast (or dynamic) ...

Sparse non-negative super-resolution - simplified and stabilised

Armin Eftekhari, Hemant Tyagi

We consider the problem of non-negative super-resolution, which concerns reconstructing a non-negative signal x = Sigma(k )(i=1)a(i)delta(ti) from m samples of its convolution with a window function phi(s - t), of the form y(s(j)) = Sigma(k)(i=1) a(i) phi( ...

Porosity evolution at the brittle-ductile transition in the continental crust: Implications for deep hydro-geothermal circulation

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Mateo Alejandro Acosta, Michael Heap

Recently, projects have been proposed to engineer deep geothermal reservoirs in the ductile crust. To examine their feasibility, we performed high-temperature (up to 1000 degrees C), high-pressure (130 MPa) triaxial experiments on granite (initially-intact ...

Solar-driven reduction of CO₂ : from homogeneous to heterogeneous catalytic systems

Marcel Roland Schreier

Rapidly increasing levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide and their damaging impact on the global climate system raise doubts about the sustainability of the fossil resource based energy system. Meanwhile, raising living standards and increasing global popul ...

Forced Electrocodeposition of Silica Particles into Nickel Matrix by Horizontal Impinging Jet Cell

Hubert Girault, Véronique Amstutz

The improvement of silica particle codeposition into a nickel electrodeposited composite coating (ECC) by a double face horizontal impinging jet cell (IJC) has been studied. The microstructure of coatings was examined by means of scanning electron microsco ...

Oxidation mechanism of nickel particles studied in an environmental transmission electron microscope

Jan Van Herle, Cécile Hébert, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Quentin Thomas Jeangros

The oxidation of nickel particles was studied in situ in an environmental transmission electron microscope in 3.2 mbar of O-2 between ambient temperature and 600 degrees C. Several different transmission electron microscopy imaging techniques, electron dif ...

Pansynaptic Enlargement at Adult Cortical Connections Strengthened by Experience

Graham Knott

Behavioral experience alters the strength of neuronal connections in adult neocortex. These changes in synaptic strength are thought to be central to experience-dependent plasticity, learning, and memory. However, it is not known how changes in synaptic tr ...

Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy and Finite Element Modeling of Structural and Transport Properties of Electrochemical Systems

Dmitry Momotenko

Understanding the fundamental properties of electrochemical systems, especially at the microscopic level, requires advanced tools combining electrochemical microscopy and scanning probe techniques with mathematical modeling for the quantification of the ph ...

Role of hydrogen in giant spin polarization observed on magnetic nanostructures

Harald Brune, Stefano Rusponi

We demonstrate that the giant spin contrast observed by scanning tunneling microscopy for double-layer Coislands on Pt(111) is caused by adsorbates at the apex of the Cr-coated W tip. The most likely candidate, in ab initio simulations, is hydrogen. Here, ...

Orientation selection in dendritic evolution

Michel Rappaz, Frédéric Claude Denis Dreyer

Computational and experimental demonstration of dendritic crystal growth direction and the morphologic diversity of the resulting dendritic structures are discussed. The primary dendrite growth directions can vary continuously between different crystallogr ...

Preparation, stabilization and characterization of TiO2 on thin polyethylene films (LDPE): Photocatalytic applications

Philippe Buffat, Albert Renken, Juan Kiwi, Lioubov Kiwi, Andrzej Kulik, Danièle Laub, Kyumin Lee

An innovative way to fix preformed nanocrystalline TiO2 on low-density polyethylene film (LDPE-TiO2) is presented. The LDPE-TiO2 film was able to mediate the complete photodiscoloration of Orange II using about seven times less catalyst than a TiO2 suspens ...

Compact fast-steering tip/tilt laser scanner for high power material processing applications

Moustapha Hafez

The common configuration for deflecting laser beams in two dimensions is based on two single-axis galvanometric scanners placed perpendicular to each other. Over recent years, these fast scanners have proved to be both very reliable and very accurate. They ...
