The morphology of titanium, zirconium, and hafnium nanofilms deposited onto zirconia after annealing in vacuum at 1400, 1500, and 1600°C was studied. Nanofilms show a tendency to fragmentation; for titanium it begins at...

A change in the morphology of titanium films on the surface of sapphire was investigated when heated in a vacuum. The coatings interact with the substrate, forming two phases with different adhesion to sapphire. Probably...

We present a molecular theory to study the adsorption of different species within pH-sensitive hydrogel nanofilms. The theoretical framework allows for a molecular-level description of all the components of the system, a...

Using the elastic continuum approach, an energy spectrum and spectral dependences of a group velocities of confined acoustic phonons in planar quasi-two-dimensional nanostructures (nanofilms) of hexagonal symmetry of the...

The results are presented of the study of kinetics of fragmentation of titanium nanofilms 100 nm thick deposited onto the surface of samples made from single crystals of Al2O3(leucosapphire), ZrO2, SiC, and AlN ceramics ...

The formation conditions of gold nanofilms on a silicon (Si) substrate by galvanic replacement in a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent and their subsequent use for the fabrication of Si nanostructures by metal-assisted ch...

The influence of sol-gel dip-coating and anodic oxidation process parameters in producing thin TiO2 films is studied. As the size of the films is in the order of nanometres (20-140 nm), to obtain a precise measurement of...

Molecular design and preparation of redox active films displaying mesoscopic levels of organization represents one of the most actively pursued research areas in nanochemistry. These mesostructured materials are not only...

The results presented here show for the first time the experimental demonstration of the fabrication of lossy mode resonance (LMR) devices based on perovskite coatings deposited on planar waveguides. Perovskite thin film...

We present the covalent modification of a Pani-like conducting polymer (polyaminobenzylamine, PABA) by grafting of a polyelectrolyte brush (poly [2-(methacryloyloxy)-ethyl-trimethylammonium chloride], PMETAC). As PABA ha...

Spintronic terahertz (THz) emission via spin-to-charge conversion (SCC) has been widely studied in ferromagnets (FM)/nonmagnets (NM) structures, in which various mechanisms of SCC have been confirmed in different NM mate...

Dependences of the concentration of intrinsic current carriers, electron and hole mobilities and specific conductivity for strained germanium nanofilms grown on the Si, Ge(0,64)Si(0,36) and Ge(0,9)Si(0,1) substrates wit...
