  2. 26. Nanofluidics as a tool for parallelized single nanoparticle characterization: Fluorescence single nanoparticle catalysis and size determination through 1D Brownian motion

    Author : Sune Levin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dark field microscopy; single nanoparticle catalysis; heterogenous catalysis; particle tracking; Brownian motion; fluorescence microscopy; nanofluidics;

    Abstract : Nanoparticles exist widely in nature and are objects of study in many scientific disciplines due to their high performance in a wide range of applications. With modern techniques that facilitate creating and shaping of nanoparticles into ever more complex shapes and compositions, characterization of particle properties is essential. READ MORE

  4. 27. Ultrafast Probing of CO Reactions on Metal Surfaces : Changes in the molecular orbitals during the catalysis process

    Author : Jörgen Gladh; Henrik Öström; Nils Mårtensson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hetrogenous catalysis; CO; transition metals; Ultrafast probing; oxidation; desorption; dissociation; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis presents experimental studies of three different chemical reaction steps relevant for heterogeneous catalysis: dissociation, desorption, and oxidation. CO on single-crystal metal surfaces was chosen as the model systems. READ MORE

  5. 28. Nanofluidic Scattering Microscopy for Single Particle Catalysis

    Author : Björn Altenburger; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; label-free methods; Platinum; Nanofluidics; Single nanoparticle catalysis; Particle trapping; Hydrogen Peroxide decomposition; Colloidal particles; Dark field microscopy;

    Abstract : Heterogeneous catalysis concerns material formulations – catalysts – that can assist a chemical reaction by improving its rate or selectivity, by lowering activation barriers and altering the energy landscape. The core of catalysts are often tiny metal particles that provide a large reaction surface at a small volume, as well as low coordination sites whose type and abundance depends on particle size and shape.

  6. 29. Imine/azo-linked microporous organic polymers : Design, synthesis and applications

    Author : Chao Xu; Niklas Hedin; Dave Adams; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microporous organic polymers; CO2 capture and separation; post-modification; chemisorption; heterogeneous catalysis; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Microporous organic polymers (MOPs) are porous materials. Owing to their high surface area, tunable pore sizes and high physicochemical stability, they are studied for applications including gas capture and separation and heterogeneous catalysis. In this thesis, a series of imine/azo-linked MOPs were synthesized. READ MORE

  7. 30. Alloy Plasmonics - Fundamentals and Applications

    Abstract : Alloys have for a long time been important in the development of our society; from the Bronze Age, where man learned how to alloy copper with tin, to today, where many products are made of steel and aluminum alloys. Similarly, but maybe not as generally well known, alloys have lately been proposed as a new paradigm in nanophotonics, to tailor optical properties of nanomaterials that find applications within telecommunication, sensing, or biotechnology.
