Optical Thin-film Structures for Color Analog, and Digital, Long-term Information Archiving
We have demonstrated the use of selective, reproducible, milling of sub-micron feature sizes by focused ion beam of optical thin film structures made from robust materials for color and B&W, analog and digital image and [...]
Structure Induced Ion Recognition of Self-Assembled Monolayers on Gold
The construction and characteristics of self-assembled monolayers(SAMs) anthraquinone-polyether compounds on gold were described. Surprisingly and in contrast to the behavior of the in solution, the SAMs show very high affinity towards alkali metal ions, as [...]
Synthesis and Characterization of Ferrite Thin Films Obtained by Soft Chemical Methods
Highly uniform transition metal ferrite films with controllable thickness and composition can be obtained by finely tuning the reaction conditions through soft chemical synthetic approaches. We report here our initial, successful attempts in developing the [...]
Morphology of Nanostructured Films Synthesized via Electrodeposition
In this study we perform Brownian dynamics simulations to investigate the influence of surface reaction rate on the development of size dispersion of interfacial nanostructures that form by electrodeposition of non-interacting ions (particles) onto surfaces [...]
Coating Growth on Nanofibers: Multi-Scale Modeling, Simulations and Experiments
Theoretical and experimental investigations on nanoscale deposition technology are critical for nanoscale materials research and for future nanodevice applications. Moreover, because of the varied and coupled physical phenomena involved (mechanical, electromagnetic, chemical, thermal, etc.), the [...]
Properties of Self-Assembled Monolayer as an Anti-adhesion Layer on Metallic Nano Stamper
The increasing demand for micro/nano optical components in the fields of optical data storage, optical communication, and digital display has required mass replication of polymeric micro/nano patterns. In nano replication process, surface quality can be [...]
Metrology Development for the Nanoelectronics Industry at the National Institute of Standards and Technology
The National Institute of Standards and Technology has provided and continues to provide critical metrology development for the semiconductor manufacturing industry as it moves from the microelectronic era into the nanoelectronic era. This presentation will [...]
