The present study synthesized a poly (glycerol-sebacate-lactic acid) (PGSL) with 1:1:0.5 mole ratio of glycerol, sebacate and lactic acid and investigated the degradation characteristics of the polymer in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at 37 °C in vitro by means of mass loss tests, geometry, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) measurements, tensile analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The maintained geometry, linear mass loss, and minor crack formation on the surface during degradation characterized both the bulk degradation and surface erosion of the polymer. By day 30 of degradation, the mass lost reached 16%. The elastic modulus, tensile strength and elongation at breakage of PGSL were correlative to the period of degradation. 相似文献

We report the miscibility and molecular orientation of carbazole (CA) molecules in the mixed Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of CA in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and stearic acid (SA) matrices. The lr-A isotherm confirms the formation of stable Langmuir films of CA mixed with either PMMA or SA at airwater interface. 'Characteristics of area per molecule versus molefraction and collapse pressure versus molefraction reveal complete demixing of CA and the matrix PMMA/SA molecules in the mixed films. Absorption spectroscopy certainly confirms the fact that CA molecules have preferred orientation on the substrate of the LB films. 相似文献

Cd1−xMnxS nano-crystalline films (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) were formed on glass substrates by thermal evaporation technique at room temperature (300 K). AFM studies showed that all the films were in nano-crystalline form with the grain size varying in the range between 36 and 58 nm and exhibited hexagonal structure of the host material. The lattice parameters varied linearly with composition, following Vegard's law in the entire composition range. The nanohardness and Young's modulus decreased sharply with ‘Mn’ content upto x = 0.3 and increased with high Mn content. 相似文献

We employ a layer-by-layer adsorption technique for deposition on solid substrates of polyionic films of Chicago Sky Blue. Film growth was significant with the increasing number of layers. Photochemical properties of these films are investigated for different ionic concentrations. A significant blue shift is observed with the increasing ionic strength of the solution, suggesting the formation of aggregation. Temperature effect studies show some preferable reorientation of molecules in the film during cooling process. Most remarkable observation is that the absorption intensity is the highest for a particular degree of inclination. Deposition time is fixed at 15rain because adsorption kinetics results show saturation after 15 min. 相似文献

Adsorption of octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) on mesoporous SBA-15 has been studied by using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. BET surface area analysis shows decrease of surface area from 930 to 416 m2/g after OTS adsorption. SEM pictures show close attachment of SBA-15 particles. EDAX measurements show increase of carbon weight percentage and decrease of oxygen and silicon weight percentage. XPS results closely support EDAX analysis. FTIR spectra shows presence of methyl (-CH3) and methylene (-CH2) bands and oriented OTS monolayer on SBA-15. Thermo-gravimetric analysis shows that the OTS adsorbed on SBA-15 are stable up to a temperature of 230 °C and that the OTS monolayers decompose between 230 and 400 °C. 相似文献

Self-aggregates formation of 3,4,9,10-tetra-(n-alkoxy-carbonyl)-perylenes in Langmuir-Blodgett films
Robert Hertmanowski 《Journal of luminescence》2007,126(2):323-332
Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films formed of some 3,4,9,10-tetra-(n-alkoxy-carbonyl)-perylenes and of their binary mixtures with the liquid crystal 4-octyl-4′-cyanobiphenyl (8CB) have been studied. Absorption and fluorescence studies were carried out. Both absorption and fluorescence spectra have revealed the formation of self-aggregates of dye molecules in monomolecular layers. Moreover, information about the molecular organization at the air-solid substrate interface has been obtained. 相似文献

The effect of the surface characteristics of Ni catalyst films on the growth behavior of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were investigated using Ni catalyst films prepared by different physical vapor deposition methods, electron-beam evaporation and sputtering. The growth behavior of MWCNTs was dependent upon the surface roughness of the Ni films. After a pretreatment process with NH3, the root mean squares of surface roughness of e-beam evaporated and sputtered Ni catalyst films increased to 16.6 and 3.2 nm, respectively. Curled-MWCNTs and carbon-encapsulated Ni nanoparticles were formed on the Ni film deposited by e-beam evaporation while vertically aligned-MWCNTs were grown on the sputter-deposited film. In addition, the surface roughness of the Ni films affected the field emission properties of the MWCNTs. This was considered to originate from the specific growth behavior of the MWCNTs which was primarily caused by the initial surface roughness of the Ni films. 相似文献

In this paper a comparative study of different wet-chemical etching procedures of vicinal Si(1 1 1) surface passivation is presented. The stability against oxidation under ambient atmosphere was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. The best results were achieved by the buffered HF etching and the final smoothing of the surface by hot (72 °C) NH4F. The procedures consisting of a large number of etching steps were unsatisfactory, since the probability of contamination during each step was increasing. The passivated surface was stable against oxidation for at least 3 h under ambient atmosphere. 相似文献

Using two different 25-mer oligonucleotide probes covalently grafted on a silicon substrate, we demonstrate how efficient atomic force microscopy (AFM) can be for monitoring each step of DNA chip preparation: from probe immobilization to hybridization on the molecular scale. We observed the probe-molecule organization on the chip after immobilization, and the target molecules, which hybridized with probes could be individually identified. This article presents a method of straightforwardly identifying not only single and double DNA strands, but also, and more significantly, the hybridized part on them. 相似文献

The surface and interface morphology and magnetization characteristics of Co70Fe30 thin films deposited on bare glass and p-Si/SiO2 substrates and on conjugated polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) thin films on such substrates have been studied by atomic force microscopy and magneto-optic Kerr effect. It was found that the average absolute magnitude of the coercive field of Co70Fe30 correlates with the roughness of the underlayer prior to Co70Fe30 deposition. P3HT deposited on p-Si/SiO2 substrates possesses an increased surface roughness as compared to the p-Si/SiO2 surface, but displays a decreased surface roughness as compared to the one of a bare glass substrate. 相似文献

The (1 0 0) SrTiO3 substrate has emerged as the oxide substrate of choice for the deposition of a wide variety of materials. The substrate's unavoidable miscut leads to a step-terrace morphology when heated to high temperatures. This morphological transition is accompanied by an atomic scale repositioning of the uppermost terrace atoms, the nature of which is strongly dependent on the substrate temperature and ambient atmosphere used. Here, we report the deposition of CdTe films on the as-received and reconstructed surfaces of (1 0 0) SrTiO3. The as-received substrate gives rise to a [1 1 1] CdTe film with four equally distributed in-plane grain orientations. The surface reconstruction, on the other hand, gives rise to an unprecedented reorientation of the film's grain structure. For this case, a [2 1 1] CdTe film emerges having twelve unevenly distributed in-plane orientations. We attribute the film's grain structure to an atomic scale surface reconstruction, with the anisotropic distribution of grain-types arising from a preferential formation due to the step edges. 相似文献

Antiferroelectric PbZrO3 thin films were grown on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates with predominant (111) orientation using a sol-gel process. The Pt/PbZrO3/Pt film capacitor showed well-saturated hysteresis loops at an applied voltage of 5 V with remanent polarisation (Pr) and coercive electric field (Ec) values of 8.97 μC/cm2 and 162 kV/cm, respectively. The leakage current density of the highly (111)-oriented PbZrO3 film was less than 1.0×10−7 A/cm2 over electric field ranges from 0 to 105 kV/cm. The conduction current depended on the voltage polarity. The PbZrO3/Pt interface forms a Schottky barrier at electric fields from 20 to 160 kV/cm. The dielectric relaxation current behaviour of Pt/PbZrO3/Pt capacitor obeys the well-known Curie-Von Schweidler law at electric field of 20-80 kV/cm, the currents have contributions of both dielectric relaxation current and leakage current. 相似文献

The results reported concern the characterization of thin layer SiO2-based matrices with an oxygen sensing component Ru(II)-tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) immobilized, when a sol-gel process along with dip- and spin-coating deposition methods are used.SEM, TEM and AFM study, assisted by X-ray energy dispersive microanalysis reveals the influence of the precursors used, sol treatment and the coating conditions on the films morphology and Ru distribution in the matrices. Uniform and smooth surface is produced from tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). The presence of ormosils (methyltriethoxysilane, MtEOS and octyltriethoxysilane, OtEOS) significantly increases the surface roughness exhibited as dots on the SEM image. Their surface concentration and size depend on the number of immersions and withdrawal speed at the dip coating. Spin deposition leads to rather different morphology of the films, based on TEOS/OtEOS. Following commonly used sol preparation procedure (with 1.25-2.5 g Ru-complex/dm3 sol) microcrystallization of the complex occurs with formation of randomly distributed crystals 100-400 nm in size. The ultrasound treatment of the sol by means of ultrasound disintegrator leads to homogeneous distribution of the complex without observable crystallization and significant improvement of the film sensing properties (increase of Stern-Volmer constant and better linearity of the Stern-Volmer plots both in gaseous and aqueous media). 相似文献

The Ge concentration in a MBE grown SiGe and the depth of the quantum well has been quantitatively analysed by means of low energy Rutherford backscattering (RBS) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The concentrations of Si and Ge were supposed to be constant, except for the quantum well, where the nominal germanium concentration was at 5%. Quantitative information was deduced out of raw data by comparison to SIMNRA simulated spectra. With the knowledge of the response function of the SIMS instrument (germanium delta (δ) layer) and using the model of forward convolution (point to point convolution) it is possible to determine the germanium concentration and the thickness of the analysed quantum well out of raw SIMS data. 相似文献

Poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) was implanted by oxygen ion with energy of 40 keV. The influence of experimental parameters was investigated by varying ion fluence from 1 × 1012 to 1 × 1015 ions/cm2. XPS, SEM, surface roughness, wettability, hardness, and modulus were employed to investigate structure and properties of the as-implanted PPC samples. Eight chemical groups, i.e., carbon, CH, COC, CO, OCO, CO, , and groups were observed on surfaces of the as-implanted samples. The species and relative intensities of the chemical groups changed with increasing ion fluence. SEM images displayed that irradiation damage was related strongly with ion fluence. Both surface-recovering and shrunken behavior were observed on surface of the PPC sample implanted with fluence of 1 × 1015 ions/cm2. As increasing ion fluence, the surface roughness of the as-implanted PPC samples increased firstly, reached the maximum value of 159 nm, and finally decreased down the minimum value. The water droplet contact angle of the as-implanted PPC samples changed gradually with fluence, and reached the minimum value of 70° with fluence of 1 × 1015 ions/cm2. The hardness and modulus of the as-implanted PPC samples increased with increasing ion fluence, and reached their corresponding maximum values with fluence of 1 × 1015 ions/cm2. The experimental results revealed that oxygen ion fluence closely affected surface chemical group, morphology, surface roughness, wettability, and mechanical properties of the as-implanted PPC samples. 相似文献

TiO2 films deposited on unheated substrates of alumina silicate glass by rf. (13.56 MHz) magnetron sputtering in the mixture of O2 and Ar gases have been studied with X-ray diffraction (XRD), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and optical spectroscopy. Structural and optical properties of TiO2 films deposited at different O2 concentrations and total pressures have been analyzed. Photocatalytic properties of TiO2 films were characterized by following the degradation of methylene blue molecules under UV irradiation. It was found that the rate of methylene blue decomposition strongly depends on morphology and crystallinity of the deposited films, namely on the content of the anatase phase and on the size of the anatase grains. The best photocatalytic activity was found on TiO2 films consisting of pure anatase phase with the size of grains of about 450 Å. With the help of those films a thin film reactor for water purification has been designed and tested. 相似文献

Thin gold films were fabricated by vacuum resistive deposition on the n-Ge (1 1 1) wafers. The films were annealed between 300 and 600 °C. These resulting thin films were then characterised using scanning electron microscopy (field emission and back-scattering modes), Rutherford back scattering spectroscopy and time of flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (TOF-SIMS). For temperatures below the eutectic temperature the distribution of both the gold and the germanium on the surface are uniform. Above the eutectic temperature, the formation of gold rich islands on the surface of the Germanium were observed. These changes in the microstructure were found to correspond to changes in the electrical characteristics of the diodes. 相似文献

A free-running Er:YAG laser is used to ablate polyethylene glycol and the ablation yield is studied as a function of molecular weight (1000-10,000 g/mol) and laser fluence (8-25 J/cm2). A steady-state ablation mechanism is proposed which includes recoil-induced expulsion as the primary contributor to the ablation yield. It is also proposed that the formation of a molten layer is a necessary part of the ablation mechanism because the calculated tensile strengths for the solid polymer are too large to permit fracture of the target due to the laser-induced stress transient. The ablation yield is found to depend in a sigmoidal fashion upon laser fluence, thus implying a variable ablation enthalpy. Finally, the current results are compared with that obtained previously with a free electron laser. 相似文献

We study the wetting behaviour of thin polystyrene (PS) films on regularly corrugated silicon substrates. Below a critical
film thickness the PS films are unstable and dewet the substrates. The dewetting process leads to the formation of nanoscopic
PS channels filling the grooves of the corrugated substrates. Films thicker than the critical thickness appear stable and
follow the underlying corrugation pattern. The critical thickness is found to scale with the radius of gyration of the unperturbed
polymer chains.

We report on zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films (d = 55-120 nm) prepared by thermal oxidation, at 623 K, of metallic zinc films, using a flash-heating method. Zinc films were deposited in vacuum by quasi-closed volume technique onto unheated glass substrates in two arrangements: horizontal and vertical positions relative to incident vapour. Depending on the preparation conditions, both quasi-amorphous and (0 0 2) textured polycrystalline ZnO films were obtained. The surface morphologies were characterized by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. By in situ electrical measurements during two heating-cooling cycles up to a temperature of 673 K, an irreversible decrease of electrical conductivity of as flash-oxidized Zn films was revealed. The influence of deposition arrangement and oxidation conditions on the structural, morphological and electrical properties of the ZnO films is discussed. 相似文献
