AbdolahZadeh, M. (author), Esteves, A.C.C. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author), Garcia Espallargas, S.J. (author)Sol-gel technology is increasingly being used in coatings for corrosion protection and adhesion improvement. So far, the self-healing concept in sol-gel coatings has only been approached from extrinsic healing perspective (i.e. use of nano and micro carriers of corrosion inhibitors) [1]. Despite the benefits of this approach, the damaged area...conference paper 2013

Ramesha, Raghutham (author), Vollebregt, S. (author), Sarro, Pasqualina M (author)Graphene is an attractive material to be used for pressure sensors due to its thinness, electrical conductivity, and potential high gauge factor. One of the issues with processing graphene is the scalability, which is largely limited by the transfer process that is required for graphene deposited by chemical vapour deposition (CVD). In this...conference paper 2019

The Feasibility of In Situ Vibrational Spectroscopy in Liquid-phase Heterogeneous Catalysis ResearchHamminga, G.M. (author)The use of on-line spectroscopic monitoring techniques for performing kinetic and mechanistic studies of heterogeneously catalysed liquid-phase reactions have several advantages over the conventional 'off-line' analysis methods, such as GC, HPLC, NMR or MS. In general, the conventional 'off-line' analysis is based on withdrawal of samples from...doctoral thesis 2006

Vollebregt, S. (author)Interconnects in integrated circuits (IC) are the major cause of power dissipation and delay. 3D integration has been proposed as a method to reduce these issues. For this 3D integration, fabrication of high aspect ratio reliable vertical interconnects (vias) are required. For this new materials, like carbon nanotubes (CNT), are being considered...doctoral thesis 2014

Komen, I. (author)In this thesis we describe three results of the interaction between WS2 and light: photoluminescence, the formation of exciton-polaritons and Raman scattering. The chirality of the photoluminescence interaction between WS2 and light opens the way for applictions in nanophotonics and specifically valleytronics, the field of interacting with and...doctoral thesis 2021

(author)We present a new approach to the dual-beam geometry for on-chip optical trapping and Raman spectroscopy, using waveguides microfabricated in TripleX technology. Such waveguides are box shaped and consist of SiO2 and Si3N4, so as to provide a low index contrast with respect to the SiO2 claddings and low loss, while retaining the advantages of...journal article 2014
