The epitaxial growth of graphene on transition metal surfaces by ex situ deposition of liquid precursors (LPD, liquid phase deposition) is compared to the standard method of chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The performance of LPD strongly depends on the particular transition metal surface. For Pt(111), Ir(111) and Rh(…

The in situ chlorination of graphene on Ir(111) has been achieved by depositing FeCl(3) followed by its thermal decomposition on the surface into FeCl(2) and Cl. This process is accompanied by an intercalation of Cl under graphene and formation of an epitaxial FeCl(2) film on top, which can be removed upon further ann…

We study dynamically highly asymmetric binary mixtures comprised of small methyl tetrahydrofuran (MTHF) molecules and polystyrene. Combined use of dielectric spectroscopy, 2H nuclear magnetic resonance, incoherent quasielastic neutron scattering, and depolarized dynamic light scattering allows us to selectively probe…

G-phase precipitation and ferrite-phase decomposition in a cast duplex stainless steel (DSS) aged at 623–723 K for up to 8000 h were investigated using atom probe tomography (APT). Large sample volume was observed in every APT experiment, which yielded significantly statistical results. The number density of G-phase p…

To fully utilize their optical absorption and polarizing abilities, the dispersion of Au nanorods (NRs) in a matrix, such as a polymer film, must be controlled. By functionalizing NRs with a polymer brush chemically similar to the matrix, NR dispersion and aggregation can be controlled by varying the ratio of brush (…

Porous layers were produced on a p-type (100) Si wafer by electrochemical anodic etching. The morphological, nanostructural and optical features of the porous Si were investigated as functions of the etching conditions. As the wafer resistivity was increased from 0.005 to 15 Ω·cm, the etched region exhibited 'sponge',…
