We report on the fabrication and testing of a chip-scale plasma light source. The device consists of a stack of three anodically bonded Pyrex wafers, which hermetically enclose a gas-filled cavity in which electrodes are used to ignite a low power (≪500 mW ...
We report on the temperature stability of N@C-60 peapods using electron spin resonance. The atomic nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the peapod than in the crystalline form. We also report on the synthesis of novel magnetic fullerene peapod, a ful ...
This article is part of the project to model the kinetics of high-temperature combustions, occurring behind shock waves and in detonation waves. The "conventional" semi-empirical correlations of ignition delays have been reformulated, by keeping the Arrhen ...
This thesis addresses the link between capillarity parameters, i.e. surface tension and contact angle, and the infiltration of porous preforms with molten metal by pressure infiltration The method used is to conduct pressure infiltration experiments of sel ...
