Superior Electrocatalytic Activity of MoS2-Graphene as Superlattice
2020
[EN] Evidence by selected area diffraction patterns shows the successful preparation of large area (cm x cm) MoS2/graphene heterojunctions in coincidence of the MoS2 and graphene hexagons (superlattice). The electrodes of MoS2/graphene in superlattice configuration show improved catalytic activity for H-2 and O-2 evolution with smaller overpotential of +0.34 V for the overall water splitting when compared with analogous MoS2/graphene heterojunction with random stacking.
<title>Amorphous chalcogenide thin films as a media for holographic recording</title>
2004
The amorphous As2S3 and As40S15Se45 films as a recording media for optical holography and lithography were studied. The results on research of the transmission, surface-relief and Bragg reflection grating holographic recording and readout conditions are presented. The recording of transmission holographic gratings in As40S15Se45 films was performed by He-Ne (0.6328 μm) laser beam, while the redout of the diffraction efficiency was made at Bragg agle using diode (0.805 μm) laser lines. The Bragg reflection gratings in As2S3 films were recorded and studied by Ar+ laser line 0.5145 μm. The surface-relief modulated gratings with a period of 0.15 μm - 1 μm were recorded.© (2004) COPYRIGHT SPIE--…
A magnetostrictive sensor interrogated by fiber gratings for DC-current and temperature discrimination
2000
A magnetostrictive sensor head with temperature compensation has been developed for measurement of static magnetic fields. The device consists on two different alloys with similar thermal expansion coefficient one of which has a giant magnetostriction, the expansion of both materials produced by heat and magnetism is detected by two fiber gratings. One of the gratings measures the temperature of the sensor and the difference between the wavelengths reflected by the gratings is a measurement of the magnetically induced strain.
Thermally induced emission of light from a metallic diffraction grating, mediated by surface plasmons
1999
The angular emission of light of wavelength 710 and 810 nm from a gold diffraction grating was studied at about 700°C. A peak in the emission was found for defined angles. This contribution is purely TM-polarised and is attributed to thermally excited surface plasmons, coupled to light waves by the diffraction grating.
Broadband asymmetric transmission of THz radiation through double metallic gratings
2013
We analyse numerically and experimentally the asymmetric transmission through sub-wavelength double metallic gratings. The possibility of achieving a broadband unidirectional transmission of THz waves through the grating is confirmed. The proposed gratings allow for efficient one-way transmission in the wavelength range from 2.5 to 3.5 mm.

Insights into the formation of metal carbon nanocomposites for energy storage using hybrid NiFe layered double hydroxides as precursors
2020
[EN] NiFe-carbon magnetic nanocomposites prepared using hybrid sebacate intercalated layered double hydroxides (LDHs) as precursors are shown to be of interest as supercapacitors. Here, the low-temperature formation mechanism of these materials has been deciphered by means of a combined study using complementaryin situ(temperature-dependent) techniques. Specifically, studies involving X-ray powder diffraction, thermogravimetry coupled to mass spectrometry (TG-MS), statistical Raman spectroscopy (SRS), aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) have been carried out. The experimental results confirm the early formation o…
An epitaxial hexagonal tungsten bronze as precursor for WO3 nanorods on mica.
2008
International audience; Tungsten oxide nanorods are grown at atmospheric pressure and low temperature (360 1C), by sublimation of WO3 and condensation on mica substrates. The nanorods are characterized by atomic force microscopy, high-resolution electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and high energy electron diffraction. The experimental results evidence the formation of a hexagonal tungsten bronze at the nanorod–substrate interface. The epitaxial relationships of the nanorods on mica are determined and the role of epitaxial orientation of the interfacial bronze in the nanorod growth and morphology are discussed.
Two-component self-assembly with solvent leading to "wet" and microcrystalline organogel fibers
2014
Abstract Hypothesis The microcrystalline fibers of N -(2-aminoethyl)-3α-hydroxy-5β-cholan-24-amide 1 provided a useful model system for studying the complex relationship between morphology, experimental parameters, solvent, and the phenomenon of organogelation. The presence of solvents in the solid forms of 1 along with crystallization behavior suggested solvate formation and polymorphic behavior. Experiments Forty solid state- and xerogel samples of 1 formed in organic solvents and in three categories of experimental conditions were analyzed with single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman microscopy, and attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infr…
Small angle neutron scattering on periodically deformed polymers
1984
Small angle neutron scattering from periodically deformed samples is a useful extension of the methods presently available for the study of molecular dynamics of polymers. In this paper we describe apparatus that has been used to produce large cyclic deformations at frequencies upto 10 Hz and the principles by which data is collected to give spectra corresponding to different states of strain of the sample. Some data on model polydimethylsiloxane networks is given as an illustration of the value of this technique.
