Abstract Nitrogen‐ion beam pulses emitted from a low‐energy (1.45 kJ) Mather‐type plasma focus device are used for the surface modification of PTFE polymer specimens. The specimens, placed at a fixed position, are implanted using different number of pulses. Raman spectroscopy and XRD are employed to probe the structur…

The improvement of hydrophilicity and hemocompatibility of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film was developed using surface modification of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) deposition. The polysaccharide PEMs included chitosan (CS, as a positive-charged agent) and dextran sulfate (DS, as a negative-charged and an a…

Abstract The photoluminescence of poly[2‐(3‐thienyl)ethyloxy‐4‐butylsulfonate)] (PTE‐BS) in aqueous solution increases threefold on addition of the surfactant tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBA). Furthermore, the luminescence of the PTE‐BS/TBA system is reduced by more than five times by the addition of small amounts…

The molecular organization of a mixed film, containing a water-soluble tetracationic porphyrin (TMPyP) and a p-tert-butyl calix[8]arene octacarboxylic acid derivative (C8A), at the air-water interface and on a solid support (LB film), has been investigated. Although the TMPyP aggregation was not detected at the air-wa…

We developed a technique for the local electrical detection of a plasmon resonance in a single metal nanoparticle. A gold nanoparticle is coupled to a GaAs photodetector placed in the particle's near field. Light scattered by the particle is coupled into the semiconductor cavity of the photodetector, providing efficie…

We study the structure and the dynamics in the formation of irreversible gels by means of molecular dynamics simulation of a model system where the gelation transition is due to the random percolation of permanent bonds between neighboring particles. We analyze the heterogeneities of the dynamics in terms of the fluct…

The formation of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) is investigated using a silicon-on-insulator based thin film resistor which is sensitive to variations of the surface potential. The buildup of the PEMs at the silicon oxide surface of the device can be observed in real time as defined potential shifts. The influence…

We present a theoretical investigation of an electrically controllable spin filter based on multiferroic tunneling junction. This spin filter combines the exchange splitting of ferromagnets and asymmetry in energy potential due to the screening of ferroelectric polarization charges at electrodes. Transfer matrix calcu…
