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…

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…

Is adhesion superficial? Silicon wafers as a model system to study van der Waals interactions

Peter Loskill, Hendrik Hähl, Thomas Faidt +3

Adhesion is a key issue for researchers of various fields, it is therefore of uppermost importance to understand the parameters that are involved. Commonly, only surface parameters…

Slippage and Nanorheology of Thin Liquid Polymer Films

Oliver Bäumchen, Renate Fetzer, Mischa Klos +4

Thin liquid films on surfaces are part of our everyday life, they serve e.g. as coatings or lubricants. The stability of a thin layer is governed by interfacial forces, described b…

Structural evolution of protein-biofilms: Simulations and Experiments

Y. Schmitt, H. Hähl, C. Gilow +5

The control of biofilm formation is a challenging goal that has not been reached yet in many aspects. One is the role of van der Waals forces and another the importance of mutual i…
