Impact of geometry on chemical analysis exemplified for photoelectron spectroscopy of black silicon
Jens U. Neurohr, Anton Wittig, Hendrik Hähl +6
For smooth surfaces, chemical composition can be readily analyzed using various spectroscopic techniques, a prominent example is X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), where the r…
Unwanted electroless zinc plating on current collectors in zinc air batteries
Vinoba Vijayaratnam, Harald Natter, Samuel Grandthyll +4
The occurrence of metallic film deposition without external power supply on the copper current collector of a zinc air battery half-cell containing zinc slurry is investigated. The…
Nucleated dewetting in supported ultra-thin liquid films with hydrodynamic slip
Matthias Lessel, Joshua D. McGraw, Oliver Bäumchen +1
This study reveals the influence of the surface energy and solid/liquid boundary condition on the breakup mechanism of dewetting ultra-thin polymer films. Using silane self-assembl…
Influence of bidisperse self-assembled monolayer structure on the slip boundary condition of thin polymer films
Joshua D. McGraw, Mischa Klos, Antoine Bridet +5
Alkylsilane self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are often used as model substrates for their ease of preparation and hydrophobic properties. We have observed that these atomically smo…
Enhanced Adhesion of S. Mutans to Hydroxyapatite after Inoculation in Saliva
Christian Spengler, Nicolas Thewes, Friederike Nolle +5
Streptococcus mutans cells form robust biofilms on human teeth and are strongly related to caries incidents. Hence, understanding the adhesion of S. mutans in the human oral cavity…
Slip-Mediated Dewetting of Polymer Microdroplets
Joshua D. McGraw, Tak Shing Chan, Simon Maurer +5
Classical hydrodynamic models predict that infinite work is required to move a three-phase contact line, defined here as the line where a liquid/vapor interface intersects a solid…
