Characterization and Electrochemical Properties of Oxygenated Amorphous Carbon (a-C) Films
2016
Amorphous carbon (a-C) films with varying oxygen content were deposited by closed-field unbalanced magnetron sputtering with the aim to understand the effect of oxygen on the structural and physical properties of the films and subsequently correlate these changes with electrochemical properties. The a-C films were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, helium-ion microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis. The electrochemical properties were studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry with several redox systems (Ru(NH3)62+/3+, Fe(CN)64−/3−, dopamine an…
Chemical characterization and ultrastructure study of pulp fibers
2020
Abstract Understanding the ultrastructure and chemical characterization of pulp fibers is highly important in utilizing wood as a raw material in a wide scope of applications, such as forest biomass-based biorefineries and low-cost renewable materials. The observation of the ultrastructure is not possible without advanced microscopy and spectroscopy techniques. Therefore, this study focuses on exploring the ultrastructure of pulp fibers with helium ion microscopy (HIM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). For the analysis of chemical characterization in the pulp fibers, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were pe…
