Graphene, despite its exceptional electrical properties, is not suitable as a channel material in field-effect transistors due to its zero band gap. Engineered graphene structures, such as graphene nanoribbons, have been proposed to overcome this limitation. However, nanoribbons, ...
Human Civilization is no stranger to infectious diseases, throughout the abundance of time infectious diseases, famine and wars have been a major threat to human existence and progress. These disease are caused by micrometer to nanometer sized microorganisms like bacteria, pathog ...
During the last years, large improvements in the efficiency on the CIGS technology have been achieved, making them excellent candidates as bottom cells for double junction tandem devices. This improvement is a result of the implementation of post deposition treatments (PDT) using ...
Hexavalent chromium has been the industry standard for corrosion protection for many years. Its unsurpassed active corrosion inhibiting capabilities, its incredible versatility and its economic benefits made it a popular all-rounder. Nowadays the widely known toxic and carcinogen ...
For over a decade the use of bio inspired adhesives have been explored to achieve high reversable attachment on a wide range of surfaces. Based on the fibrillar adhesive toepads of geckos, many patterned adhesives have been produced that are able to form and preserve contact with ...

Microstructure-Corrosion Property Correlation

Elucidating the influence of microstructure on the active corrosion behavior of Pure Iron

Microstructure-corrosion property correlation is an open question in the field of materials science. The microstructure of metals and alloys consists of several features with different individual corrosion response. The corrosion behavior of the macroscopic system is an outcome o ...

Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide

Modeling the electrochemical conversion of CO2 to Formic Acid under high pressure

Due to rising concerns about climate change, a lot of research is currently underway with respect to the development of new technologies which can contribute to the decline of atmospheric CO2, and will allow further penetration of renewables into the energy mix. A prom ...
