  2. 6. Insulator charging by contact with metals

    Author : Frank Nordhage; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In spite of the fact that charge transfer is one of the oldest physical phenomena known, the basic mechanisms involved are not yet quite understood. For experimental investigations of the charge transfer to insulators it is still informative to scrutinize electrification systems consisting of as simple components as possible. READ MORE

  4. 7. MECHANISMS OF ENHANCED ACTIVITY OF MODEL TiO2/CARBON and TiO2/METAL NANOCOMPOSITE PHOTOCATALYSTS

    Author : Raja Sellappan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photocatalysis; graphite; solar energy conversion; graphene; localized surface plasmon resonance; photocatalytic mechanisms; nanocomposites; TiO2; carbon;

    Abstract : TiO2 is the most widely used photocatalyst for energy and environmental applications because of its outstanding physical and chemical properties. However, the quantum efficiency of TiO2 is greatly diminished by fast electron-hole pairs recombination and light absorption only in the UV region. READ MORE

  5. 8. Zinc Oxide Bulk and Nanorods

    Author : Peter Klason; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zinc oxide; Schottky contact; buckling; annealing; semiconductor growth; ion implantation; photoluminescence; nanorods;

    Abstract : Zinc Oxide (ZnO) has many promising properties for optoelectronics, sensor applications, transparent electronics etc. To mention a few, ZnO has a large exciton binding energy (60 meV at room temperature) and a direct wide bandgap energy of 3.37 eV. In addition, ZnO is piezoelectric and shows more resistance to radiation damage than Si and GaN. READ MORE

  6. 9. Contact-free surface chemistry with acoustic levitation

    Author : Smaragda Maria Argyri; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; machine learning; surface chemistry; Acoustic levitation;

    Abstract : An ultrasonic acoustic levitator is a device that allows the implementation of contact-free studies by generating an airborne acoustic pressure field, capable of trapping, in mid-air, small volume samples (.... READ MORE
