  1. 1. Formation and Function of Low-Friction Tribofilms

    Author : Harald Skiöld Nyberg; Staffan Jacobson; Allan Matthews; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribology; tribofilm; PVD; coating; low-friction; tungsten disulphide; transition metal dichalcogenide; tribochemistry; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Abstract : The use of low-friction coatings on machine elements is steadily increasing, and they are expected to play an important role in the reduction of fuel consumption of future motorized vehicles. Many low-friction coatings function by transformation of the outermost coating layer into tribofilms, which then cover the coating surface and its counter surface. READ MORE

    Abstract : For sustainable development, it is highly important to limit the loss of energy and materials in machines used for transportation, manufacturing, and other purposes. Large improvements can be achieved by reducing friction and wear in machine elements, for example by the application of coatings. READ MORE

  3. 3. Liquid-Phase Exfoliation of Two-Dimensional Materials : Applications, deposition methods and printed electronics on paper

    Author : Viviane Forsberg; Magnus Norgren; Luis Miguel Pereira Nunes; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : molybdenum disulfide MoS2 ; transition metal dichalcogenide TMD ; thin films; inkjet printing; 2D inks; liquid-phase exfoliation; shear exfoliation; printed electronics; organic electronics; PEDOT:PSS; photoresponse; photocurrent; cathodoluminescence;

    Abstract : After the unprecedented success of graphene research, other materials that can also be exfoliated into thin layers, like Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), have also become the subjects of extensive studies. As one of the most promising methods for large scale production of such materials, liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) has also been the subject of extensive research and is maturing as a field to the point that devices using additive manufacturing and printed nanosheets are often reported.

  4. 4. Time-Resolved Photoemission Electron Microscopy: Development and Applications

    Author : Lukas Wittenbecher; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PEEM; time-resolved PEEM; ultrafast optics; pulse shaping; plasmonics; semiconductor nanowires; hot electrons; ultrafast microscopy; charge carrier relaxation;

    Abstract : Time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy (TR-PEEM) belongs to a class of experimental techniquescombining the spatial resolution of electron-based microscopy with the time resolution of ultrafast opticalspectroscopy. This combination provides insight into fundamental processes on the nanometer spatial andfemto/picosecond time scale, such as charge carrier transport in semiconductors or collective excitations ofconduction band electrons at metal surfaces.
