Optical properties of carbon nanofiber photonic crystals [PDF]
Carbon nanofibers (CNF) are used as components of planar photonic crystals. Square and rectangular lattices and random patterns of vertically aligned CNF were fabricated and their properties studied using ellipsometry.

We discuss the similarities which exist between the reflection of neutrons from ferromagnetic media and the reflection of light from media rendered gyrotropic by the application of a magnetic field, and show that the vector character of the neutron polarisation can be fully exploited in spin-analysed neutron reflection measurements (termed 'neutron ...

Ellipsometric measurements by use of photon pairs generated by spontaneous parametric down-conversion [PDF]
We present a novel interferometric technique for performing ellipsometric measurements. This technique relies on the use of a non-classical optical source, namely, polarization-entangled twin photons generated by spontaneous parametric down-conversion ...

Plasma Polymerized Organosilicon Thin Films for Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) Detection
Plasma polymerized (PP) thin films deposited in a soft or intermediate plasma discharge from hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) were developed as sensors for the detection of volatile organic compound (VOC) vapors.

Fundamentals and applications of spectroscopic ellipsometry
This paper describes the use of ellipsometry as a precise and accurate technique for characterizing substrates and overlayers. A brief historical development of ellipsometry and the basic principles necessary to understand how an ellipsometer works are ...

Argon irradiation effects on the structural and optical properties of reactively sputtered CrN films [PDF]
The present study deals with CrN films irradiated at room temperature (RT) with 200 keV Ar+ ions. The CrN layers were deposited by d.c. reactive sputtering on Si (100) wafers, at nitrogen partial pressure of 5×10-4 mbar, to a total thickness of ...

Ion-implantation induced anomalous surface amorphization in silicon [PDF]
Spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), high-depth-resolution Rutherford backscattering (RBS) and channeling have been used to examine the surface damage formed by room temperature N and B implantation into silicon.

Electrochemical Aptasensor for Detection of Dopamine [PDF]
This work presents a proof of concept of a novel, simple, and sensitive method of detection of dopamine, a neurotransmitter within the human brain. We propose a simple electrochemical method for the detection of dopamine using a dopamine-specific aptamer
