Nanoscience and nanotechnology are tremendously increasing fields of research that aim at
producing, characterizing and understanding nanoobjects and assemblies of nanoobjects …

Due to their unique properties, polymers–typically thermal insulators–can open up
opportunities for advanced thermal management when they are transformed into thermal …

A software package for performing modelling and analysis of GISAXS (grazing-incidence
small-angle X-ray scattering) data within the distorted-wave Born approximation has been …

Thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) of metals on metal oxide surfaces typically suffers
from nucleation delays that result in poor-quality films. The poor nucleation may be caused …

Nanoripple patterns with long-range order have been fabricated on amorphous dielectric
films by Xe+ ion etching. They are used as templates to elaborate organized arrays of …

This paper is devoted to the analysis methodology of grazing-incidence small-angle x-ray
scattering from dense assemblies of islands on a surface. To interpret the experimental data …

The correlation of thin films structure and orientation of small organic molecules with the
physical properties like charge carrier transport is not only important for basic understanding …

Lactobacillus plantarum strain 16 restricts the growth of various food spoilage fungi and has
the potential to be used as a biopreservative to improve the shelf life of foods. The complete …

The self-alignment and optical dichroism of Au nanoparticle chains grown by glancing
incidence deposition on rippled Al 2 O 3 thin films is investigated. Although the nucleation of …

The iridescence of Morpho rhetenor butterfly is known to result from a photonic structure on
wing scales, where multilayer interference and grating diffraction occur simultaneously. We …
