Anodic coupling of guaiacol derivatives on boron-doped diamond electrodes.
2011
The anodic treatment of guaiacol derivatives on boron-doped diamond electrodes (BDD) provides a direct access to nonsymmetrical biphenols, which would require a multistep sequence by conventional methods. Despite the destructive nature of BDD anodes they can be exploited for chemical synthesis.
Neuroergonomic Assessment of Hot Beverage Preparation and Consumption: An EEG and EDA Study.
2020
Neuroergonomics is an emerging field that investigates the human brain in relation to behavioral performance in natural environments and everyday settings. This study investigated the body and brain activity correlates of a typical daily activity, hot beverage preparation, and consumption in a realistic office environment where participants performed natural daily tasks. Using wearable, battery operated and wireless Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Electrodermal activity (EDA) sensors, neural and physiological responses were measured in untethered, freely moving participants who prepared hot beverages using two different machines (a market leader and follower as determined by annual US sales)…
Growth of immobilized DNA by polymerase: bridging nanoelectrodes with individual dsDNA molecules.
2011
We present a method for controlled connection of gold electrodes with dsDNA molecules (locally on a chip) by utilizing polymerase to elongate single-stranded DNA primers attached to the electrodes. Thiol-modified oligonucleotides are directed and immobilized to nanoscale electrodes by means of dielectrophoretic trapping, and extended in a procedure mimicking PCR, finally forming a complete dsDNA molecule bridging the gap between the electrodes. The technique opens up opportunities for building from the bottom-up, for detection and sensing applications, and also for molecular electronics.
Air stable hybrid organic-inorganic light emitting diodes using ZnO as the cathode
2007
An air stable hybrid organic-inorganic light emitting device is presented. This architecture makes use of metal oxides as charge injecting materials into the light emitting polymer, avoiding the use of air sensitive cathodes commonly employed in organic light emitting diode manufacturing. We report the application of zinc oxide as a cathode in an organic light emitting device. This electroluminescent device shows high brightness levels reaching 6500 cd/m2 at voltages as low as 8 V. Compared to a conventional device using low workfunction metal cathodes, our device shows a lower turn-on voltage and it can operate in air.
Reliability of numerical models for simulating galvanic corrosion processes
2012
International audience; Maturity of numerical simulation represents an important issue in the development of predictive models of galvanic corrosion. As widely used in electrochemical engineering, a coupled electrochemical-transport-reaction (CETR) model is recommended to simulate the current distribution above a galvanic corrosion cell made of the cut-edge of a galvanized steel sheet. Nevertheless, simulating current density distributions obtained experimentally by scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) above such a galvanic cell appears to be more accurate using an electrostatic model considering a homogeneous conductivity. In this case, the absence of concentration gradients next …
Electrochemical deposition of CZTS thin films on flexible substrate
2014
Abstract In this work, we report some preliminary results concerning the fabrication of quaternary semiconductor Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin films on a flexible substrate through the simultaneous electrodeposition of elements having different standard electrochemical potentials. CZTS thin films were obtained by potentiostatic deposition from aqueous baths at room temperature and under N2 atmosphere, varying bath composition. Chemical composition and structure of the electrodeposited films were evaluated by EDS, SEM, RAMAN and XRD. Preliminary results on the photoelectrochemical behaviour of the films will be also presented.
Direct inverse voltammetric determination of Pb, Cu and Cd in some edible oils after solubilization
1995
The direct determination of traces of certain heavy metals in oils is possible after treatment of the methanolic sample solution with Lumatom (tetramethylammoniumhydroxide). For the inverse voltammetric determination, a flow through cell with a mercury film electrode is used. The results for the determination of Cu and Pb in some edible oils after solubilization agree well with those obtained using wet oxidative high pressure ashing.

Water parameters in the 2 years before spawning of F0 (08.02.2016-06.03.2018) and during larval and juvenile phase of F1: Larval period until 17.05.2018 (48 dph, 900 dd) and 01.06.2018 (63 dph, ~900 dd) for warm and cold life condition respectively, for the juveniles until 28.09.2018 (180 dph, ~4000 dd) and 12.02.2019 (319 dph, ~5100 dd) for warm and cold conditioned fish respectively.

Calibration of misonidazole labeling by simultaneous measurement of oxygen tension and labeling density in multicellular spheroids
1995
To correlate misonidazole concentrations and oxygen pressures (Po2) at identical locations within EMT6/Ro multi-cell spheroids (mean diameters +/- SD: 867 +/- 20 microns), Po2 measurements were performed with oxygen-sensitive microelectrodes during incubation of these spheroids with tritiated misonidazole (10 mg/I; 445 microCi/mg). In each individual spheroid, Po2 profiles were correlated with the corresponding spatial distribution of misonidazole as quantified by conventional autoradiography and grain counting. To compare the oxygenation status of spheroids in the measuring chamber with that of spheroids in spinner culture, misonidazole labeling was performed in both environments following…
Rate Theory for Electrocatalytic Systems: Fixed Potential Formulation for General, Electron Transfer, and Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer Reactions
2019
Atomistic modeling of electrocatalytic reactions is most naturally conducted within the grand canonical ensemble (GCE) which enables fixed chemical potential calculations. While GCE has been widely adopted for modeling electrochemical and electrocatalytic thermodynamics, the electrochemical reaction rate theory within GCE is lacking. Molecular and condensed phase rate theories are formulated within microcanonical and canonical ensembles, respectively, but electrocatalytic systems described within the GCE require extension of the conventionally used rate theories for computation reaction rates at fixed electrode potentials. In this work, rate theories from (micro) canonical ensemble are gene…
