Resolving the vicinity of supermassive black holes with gravitational microlensing

Upcoming wide-field surveys will discover thousands of new strongly lensed quasars which will be monitored with unprecedented cadence by the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Many of these quasars will undergo caustic-crossing events over the 10-yr L ...

Opportunities, Challenges, and Pitfalls in Making, Characterizing, and Understanding Polymer Brushes

Harm-Anton Klok

Polymer brushes have been theoretically described, their behavior under diverse conditions has been modeled, and their preparation via surface-initiated polymerizations (SIPs) has been progressively refined. However, despite three decades of research endea ...

Coordination-Driven Monolayer-to-Bilayer Transition in Two-Dimensional Metal–Organic Networks

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Mina Moradi

We report on monolayer-to-bilayer transitions in 2D metal–organic networks (MONs) from amphiphiles supported at the water–air interface. Functionalized calix[4]arenes are assembled through the coordination of selected transition metal ions to yield monomol ...

Reliable Langmuir Blodgett colloidal masks for large area nanostructure realization

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Madasamy Thangamuthu

The fabrication of highly ordered nanostructures over large areas is key for many technologies and colloidal lithography using the Langmuir Blodgett technique appears a simple and straightforward way of reaching that goal. While this technique has been wid ...

Carbon Nanomaterials from Oligoyne Surfactants

Enzo Jean Raymond Bomal

Carbonaceous nanocoatings such as diamond-like amorphous carbon or graphene layers exhibit remarkable properties in multiple fields, ranging from corrosion protection to electronics and lubrication. However, they are typically deposited from the vapor phas ...

Out-of-Plane Alignment of Er(trensal) Easy Magnetization Axes Using Graphene

Harald Brune, Stefano Rusponi, Marina Pivetta, Jan Gui-Hyon Dreiser, Fabio Donati, Luca Gragnaniello, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni, Alberto Cavallin

We have studied Er(trensal) single -ion magnets adsorbed on graphene/Ru(0001), on graphene/Ir(111), and on bare Ru(0001) by scanning tunneling microscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. On graphene, the molecules self -assemble into dense and well -orde ...

High aspect ratio nanofibril materials

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

The present invention features linear and three-dimensional supramolecular materials self-assembled from block copolymers comprising oligo(ethylene sulfide) (OES). The block copolymers assemble into fibrils, micelles, or matrices. The fibrillar materials a ...

Fabrication of Functional Silicon Surfaces using Metallic Nanostructures Produced by Block Copolymer Self-Assembly

Self-assembly is the autonomous organization of components into patterns or structures without human intervention. At the molecular level, self-assembly usually involves non-covalent interactions of various natures, such as van der Waals, electrostatic and ...

Wafer-Scale Fabrication of Thin SiN Membranes and Au Films and Membranes with Arrays of Sub-um Holes Using Nanosphere Lithography

In this thesis, the wafer-scale fabrication of SiN membranes, Au films and Au membranes with arrays of sub-µm holes is described. Two conceptually different processes (1) and (2) were developed, both of which are based on nanosphere lithography (NSL) with ...

Growth and characterization of specific self-assembled supramolecular architectures at crystal surfaces

Marta Canas Ventura

In the framework of this thesis self-assembled supramolecular architectures of several molecular species on crystal metal surfaces are characterized. These investigations combine results obtained by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), scanning tu ...

Toward mechanical switching of surface-adsorbed [2]catenane by in situ copper complexation

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Dietmar Payer

Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), we demonstrate that a free (2]catenane consisting of two interlocking 30-membered rings (cat-30) can be deposited on ...
