Interference of engineered nanomaterials in flow cytometry: A case study

Aurélie Walter

Nanotechnology is regarded as the enabling technology of the 21st century. However, only a relatively small number of nano-enabled medical and healthcare products finally made their way to the market. There are several reasons why such innovative approache ...

Atomistic simulation of bio-relevant ionic and organic species interacting with rutile - Towards the understanding of apatite formation

Azade Yazdan Yar

Atomistic simulation methods, namely molecular dynamics and well-tempered metadynamics, are used in this thesis to investigate apatite formation from different aspects. First, ions which are more abundant in SBFs under physiological conditions were identif ...

Deactivation Aspects of Methane Oxidation Catalysts Based on Palladium and ZSM-5

Davide Ferri, Mohamed Tarik

Catalytic methane oxidation is used in exhaust gas after treatment to reduce methane emissions in stationary combustion processes as well as in natural gas vehicles. Pd/zeolite catalysts provide higher activity than the commonly used Pd/Al2O3, but suffer f ...

Membrane electrode assembly fabricated with the combination of Pt/C and hollow shell structured-Pt-SiO2@ZrO2 sphere for self-humidifying proton exchange membrane fuel cell

Andreas Züttel, Heena Yang, Youngdon Ko

The Pt-supported hollow structured Pt-HZrO2 with the shell thickness of 27 nm is successfully synthesized. The water retention ability of Pt-HZrO2 is significantly enhanced compared with that of SiO2@ZrO2 due to the hydrophilic hollow structured HZrO2 with ...

Structured Non-Noble Metal Catalysts for the Liquid-Phase Reduction of Nitroaromatics

Oliver Anthony Beswick

The industrial production of aromatic amines, essential intermediates for the synthesis of several drugs, dyes, pigments and agrochemicals, requires the use of heterogeneous catalysis. These molecules were formerly produced by the Béchamp reduction, a non- ...

Quantum State–Resolved Studies of Chemisorption Reactions

Rainer Beck, Helen Jane Chadwick

Chemical reactions at the gas–surface interface are ubiquitous in the chemical industry as well as in nature. Investigating these processes at a microscopic, quantum state–resolved level helps develop a predictive understanding of this important class of r ...

4 f occupancy and magnetism of rare-earth atoms adsorbed on metal substrates

Harald Brune, Stefano Rusponi, Jan Gui-Hyon Dreiser, Christian Wäckerlin, Pietro Gambardella, Fabio Donati, Aparajita Singha, Romana Baltic, Sebastian Stepanow

We report x-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements as well as multiplet calculations for Dy, Ho, Er, and Tm atoms adsorbed on Pt(111), Cu(111), Ag(100), and Ag(111). In the gas phase, all four elements are divalent a ...

Atomic Scale Observation of Chemical and Electronic Properties of Metal-Oxide Surfaces

Christian Alexander Stephan Dette

To meet the future global energy demand - an estimated additional 10 terawatts (TWs) per year in 2050 - a diversification of energy sources and fuels is needed. Solar energy represents a prominent alternative energy source. An important material for these ...

Influence of TiO2 phase composition on the photocatalytic activity of TiO2/MWCNT composites prepared by combined sol-gel/hydrothermal method

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Endre Horvath, Klara Hernadi

Titanium dioxide/multiwall carbon nanotube (TiO2/MWCNT) composites were prepared by sol-gel method with hydrolysis of titanium alkoxide precursor followed by crystallization via hydrothermal treatment at different acid concentrations. Transmission electron ...

Hydrogen Storage in the Expanded Pore Metal-Organic Frameworks M-2(dobpdc) (M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn)

Wendy Lee Queen, Miguel Gonzalez

The hydrogen storage properties of a new family of isostructural metal organic frameworks are reported. The frameworks M-2(dobpdc) (M = Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn; dobpdc(4-) = 4,4'-dioxidobiphenyl-3,3'-dicarboxylate) are analogous to the widely studied M-2(do ...
