The extension of the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) model to the calculation of the ultrafast transient optical response of metal nanoparticles, whatever their shape, is presented. For this, the DDA is combined with the resolution of the Boltzmann equation for the conduction electrons within the low-perturbation…

The macroscopic mechanical properties of polyaniline (PANI) lie mainly on two factors, the structure of molecular aggregations of polymers and the mechanical properties of a single polymer chain. The former factor is well revealed; however, the latter is rarely studied. In this article, we have employed atomic force m…

The solution of the inverse problem in scatterometry employing deep ultraviolet light (DUV) is discussed, i.e. we consider the determination of periodic surface structures from light diffraction patterns. With decreasing dimensions of the structures on photo lithography masks and wafers, increasing demands on the requ…

We developed an efficient method for the production of unique porous silicon structures, capable of achieving very small (less than 20 nm diameter) and uniform pore sizes, without the need for an external electrochemical cell or precoating of a discontinuous metal film. The method consists of the immersion of Si into…

Electrical interconnects in integrated circuits have shrunk to sizes in the range of 20-100 nm. Accurate measurements of the dimensions of these nanowires are essential for identifying the dominant electron scattering mechanisms affecting wire resistivity as they continue to shrink. We report a systematic study of the…

Abstract Herein we explore the possibility to control the fabrication of non‐equilibrium nano‐patterns of spin‐coated organic‐inorganic hybrid materials based on diblock copolymers and metal nanoparticles in thin films. It is demonstrated that the type of solvent and the initial solution concentration, among other fac…

Influence from surface roughness of a forming tool surface on its ability to pick up work material was investigated by laboratory testing. One powder metallurgical tool steel was given different surface roughnesses and tested in sliding contact against one austenitic stainless steel (SS) and one aluminium alloy (Al).…

The tool steel AISI D2 is usually processed by vacuum hardening followed by multiple tempering cycles. Deep cold treatment in between the hardening and tempering processes could reduce processing time and improve the final properties. Blocks of AISI D2 were vacuum hardened from different austenitizing temperatures. Th…

The improvement in the life of tool and alloy steels, when treated at 88 K for 24 hours has been conclusively established. It is however not clear as to what factors of the Deep Subzero process (DSZ) actually contribute towards improved performance of tools. It is also not clear, whether treatment for 24 hours is appl…
