Book Description
Over the last few years there has been increasing need for systematic and straregically designed experiments of surface morphology evolution resulting form ion bombardment induced sputtering. Although there is an impressive number of investi gations {1} concerned with semiconductor materials as a result of immediate applications, the most systematic investigations have been conducted with fcc metals with particular interest on single crystal Cu {2,3}. Evidence now exists that within certain para meters (i. e ion species (Ar+), ion energy (20-44 KeV), substrate 2 temperature (80-550° K), dose rate (100-500 gA cm- ) , residual x 5 9 pressure (5 10- to 5x10- mm Hg) and polar and azimuthal angle of ion incidence {4} reproducible surface morphology (etch pits and pyramids) is achieved on the (11 3 1) specific crystallographic orientation. The temporal development of individual surface features was alsoobserved in this laterstudy {4}, by employing an in situ ion source in the scanning electron microscope at Salford, a technique also empolyed in studies of the influence of polar angle of ion incidence {5} and surface contaminants {6} on the topographyof Ar+ bombarded Si. Studies have also been made on the variation of incident ion species with the (11 3 1) Cu surface and it was fully recognized {7} that residual surface contaminants when present could playa major role in dictating the morhological evolution.

Surface-modified Nanobiomaterials for Electrochemical and Biomedicine Applications
Author: Alain R. Puente-Santiago
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303055502X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience. Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.

Electro-catalysis At Chemically Modified Solid Surfaces
Author: Jacques Simonet
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 1786342456
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
This book documents Professor Jacques Simonet's contribution to building new electrode materials and their related catalytic reactions. Research includes synthesis of new alloys of palladium, discovery of new composite electrodes (including gold- and silver-graphene) and the creation of new materials through judicious cathodic or anodic doping. Additionally, studies demonstrate the malleability and reactivity of previously unused precious and semi-precious metals for the creation of 2D and 3D catalytic materials. Studies key to innovative research show how transition metals may reversibly cathodically insert small size electro-active molecules such as CO2 and O2, and be applied to methods of depollution brought by carbon and nitrogen oxides.Written for practical use, Simonet has provided both theory and tools needed for those aiming to recreate and develop his experiments in electrochemical catalysis and surface modifications. This full publication of research gives graduate and post-graduate students of chemistry, electrochemistry and catalysis an in-depth insight into key historical and modern developments in the field.

The emerging Sr2FeMoO6-based electrocatalysts for solid oxide electrochemical cell: synthesis, modulation and applications
Author: Yuanfeng Liao
Publisher: OAE Publishing Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 30
Book Description
Solid oxide cells (SOCs) are regarded as a promising energy technology due to their large current density, diverse range of fuels, and high energy conversion efficiency. The double perovskite Sr2FeMoO6 (SFM) has attracted considerable attention for SOCs due to its tunable structure with superior performance of high conductivity, excellent thermal stability, and remarkable carbon deposition resistance in a reducing atmosphere. However, the electrocatalytic activity of SFM is considerably lower than that of commercial Ni-based SOC electrodes. A timely summary of the synthesis, modulation, and application of SFM perovskites is of great significance for its further development for SOCs. In this review, the methods employed in the preparation of SFM electrocatalysts are introduced first. Then, the advancements in the application of different SFM-based electrocatalysts in the field of SOCs are reviewed, and the research progress in the in-situ exsolution of SFM-based electrocatalysts through ion regulation is assessed. Finally, the future issues associated with SFM-based electrocatalysts are addressed in the realm of electrocatalysis, to advance their application.

Biosensors and Their Applications
Author: Victor C. Yang
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461541816
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
A biosensor is a device in which a bioactive layer lies in direct contact with a transducer whose responses to change in the bioactive layer generate eloctronic signals for interpretation. The bioactive layer may consist of membrane-bound enzymes, anti-bodies, or receptors. The potential of this blend of electronics and biotechnology includes the direct assay of clinically important substrates (e.g. blood glucose) and of substances too unstable for storage or whose concentrations fluctuate rapidly. Written by the leading researchers in the field, this book reflects the most current developments in successfully constructing a biosensor. Major applications are in the fields of pharmacology, molecular biology, virology and electronics.
