Block Copolymer Thin Films: Self-Assembly of Large Molecular Weight Systems and the Fabrication of Novel Metal/Metal Oxide Nanomaterials
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2021)The self-assembly of block copolymers (BCPs) is considered an excellent candidate to further the development and progression of nanoscale technologies. While lithographic applications remain a primary topic of focus for ... -
Development of novel porous materials via polymer self-assembly and phase separation
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2023)Polymer self-assembly is an ever-growing field that is attracting interest from a diverse range of research topics, which include the production of functional devices and membranes for electronic, optical and energy ... -
Epitaxial growth and magnetic properties of Fe nanowedge islands on Mo(110)
(2005)Fe films with a nominal thickness greater than or equal to 2 Angstrom grown on Mo(1 10) at 500 less than or equal to Tless than or equal to 750 K self-assemble into nanowedge islands supported on a pseudomorphic Fe wetting ... -
Fe Nanoclusters on the Ge(001) Surface Studied by Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy, Density Functional Theory Calculations and X-Ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism
(2011)The growth of Fe nanoclusters on the Ge(001) surface has been studied using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. STM results indicate that Fe nucleates on ... -
Highly emissive CdTe nanowires grown in a phosphate buffer solution: FLIM imaging and spectroscopic studies
(2007)We present details on the formation and optical peroperties of CdTe nanowires, which were found to grow in a standard phosphate-buffered solution, including micro-photoluminescence and fluorescence lifetime imaging. -
Highly emissive nanowires grown from CdTe nanocrystals in a phosphate buffer solution
(2005)We present details on the CdTe nanowires formation, which were found to grow in a standard physiological phosphate-buffered solution, including in-situ observation of growth with a confocal microscope. The choice of ... -
Initial nucleation of Au on the (root2 x root2) R45 circle reconstructed Fe3O4 (001) surface
(2006)The initial nucleation of Au onto the (root 2 x root 2-)R45 degrees reconstructed Fe3O4(001) surface has been studied using scanning tunnelling microscopy. Au clusters are formed, with a typical lateral dimension of similar ... -
Oxide template for self-assembling arrays of metal nanoclusters
(2006)We demonstrate that ordered arrays of metal clusters of a few nanometers in size can be fabricated by self-assembly on a range of oxide nanotemplates. Two systems were chosen, FeO/Pt(111) and Fe3O4, having in common a ... -
Self-assembled Fe nanodots on Ge (001)
(2006)The initial nucleation of Fe onto the (2x1) reconstructed Ge(001) surface is studied. Uniformly sized two-dimensional Fe dots are shown to nucleate. They have an apparent corrugation height similar to 1.1 A and lateral ... -
Self-Assembly and Ordering of C-60 on the WO2/W(110) Surface
(2011)The growth and ordering of C60 molecules on the WO2/W(110) surface have been studied by low-temperature scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM and STS), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) and density ...
