Only a small fraction of all available metals has been used as electrode materials for carbon-based devices due to metal-graphene interface debonding problems. We report an enhancement of the bonding energy of weakly interacting metals by using a metal-graphene-metal sandwich geometry, without sacrificing the intrinsi…

The complex admittance of metal/oxide/pentacene thin film junctions is investigated under ambient conditions. At low frequencies, a contribution attributed to proton diffusion through the oxide is seen. This diffusion is shown to be anomalous and is believed to be also at the origin of the bias stress effect observed…

The image fractal analysis is actively used in all science branches. In particular in materials science the fractal analysis is applied to study microstructure of deformed metals because its structure can be interpreted as the fractal image. It is well known that such images can be described by fractal dimension. In t…

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a promising dielectric material for graphene-based electronic devices. Here we investigate the potential of h-BN gate dielectrics, grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), for integration with quasi-freestanding epitaxial graphene (QFEG). We discuss the large scale growth of h-BN on…

In 2011, a survey conducted all over the world says that more than 7 million humans around the world died of cancer. One in three women and one in two men developed cancer during their lifetime. About 15 percent of all deaths worldwide, was attributed to cancer. In some nations, cancer will surpass heart disease to be…

The performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is often determined by the polarization resistance of the electrodes. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) enables a deconvolution of individual electrochemical processes. In case of mixed ionic-electronic conducting (MIEC-) cathodes the impedance spectra resul…

Nacre is composed of about 95 vol.% aragonite and 5 vol.% biopolymer and famous for its “brick and mortar” microstructure. The phase transition temperature of aragonite in nacre is lower than the pure aragonite. In situ XRD was used to identify the phase transition temperature from aragonite to calcite in nacre, based…
