Ion Beam Modification of Surfaces in the Nanoscale Domain
Ion beam sputtering induces morphological as well as compositional changes on the surfaces of ion-sputtered substrates. The surface undergoes kinetic processes, which lead to different morphological details: periodic ripples, substrate-defined etch pits or protuberant structures, roughening and smoothing are some possibilities for surface evolution. The aim of my doctoral dissertation …
Polyelectrolyte multilayer template assisted in-situ synthesis of inorganic nanostructures
Thin film nanocomposites consisting of inorganic matter embedded within a soft polymeric matrix on the nanometer scale have attracted much interest lately due to their unique properties with potential application in optoelectronics and photonics. Polyelectrolyte multilayers formed by the layer-by-layer electrostatic assembly of oppositively charged polyions can be utilized as …
