Nonlinear Optical Spectroscopy of Soft Matter Interfaces
ChemPhysChem, 2009AbstractMolecular interfacial properties of colloidal soft matter systems (for example vesicle fusion, or particle synthesis) can be investigated without the need of planar model systems or fluorescent labelling. Exclusively observing chemical properties and changes in a molecular layer of a few molecular dimensions thick around a small particle adds a

Soft Matter Composites Interfacing with Biomolecules, Cells, and Tissues
2014The parameters that affect and optimize the interactions at bio/non-biointerfaces are revised and analyzed in this chapter. We focus on soft polymeric materials starting with their critical properties that determine the viability of biological systems in contact with them.

Organic Matter at the Sediment-Water Interface
1993This chapter will consider the term “sediment-water interface” as a double entendre and discuss the interface both as the horizontal zone where the water column meets the sediment column and as the wetted surface of mineral grains which occur in this horizontal zone. Hereafter, the first definition will be termed the “sediment-water interface,” and the

Interfaces in nanostructures: optical investigations on cluster-matter
Nanostructured Materials, 1999Abstract The importance of the internal interfaces between structural elements and their surroundings for the electronic properties of nanostructured materials is stressed by giving a brief overview of recent optical experiments on several different kinds of cluster-matter: (1) The Mie-absorption of silver nanoparticles embedded in various solid ...

2d Quantum Light-Matter Interfaces
2018The first two experimental chapters of this report have focused on the design and exploration of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenide-based quantum dots (TMD-QDs) as single-photon sources. This chapter presents the first efforts in using TMD-QDs as matter qubits, by electrically capturing a single charge inside the QDs.

Thermodynamics of Interfaces in Soft-Matter Systems
2015Thermodynamics of interfaces provides a framework to relate measurable quantities to other important yet not directly accessible equilibrium properties of interfacial systems. For liquid/gas and liquid/liquid interfaces (fluid interfaces) the interfacial tension and its dependence on temperature and composition can be measured, while the adsorbed ...

Interface tension at Tc in hot Gluon matter
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1990Abstract In hot QCD matter with a colour confining - non-confining phase transition two phases can coexist at T c with a stable interface in between. We have studied how the structure and tension of the interface can be determined using Monte Carlo methods. On an N t = 2 lattice with a 8 ∗ 8 ∗ 40 spatial size the result is α / T c 3 =

What Matters in Developing Interfaces for Hyperdocument Presentation?
1995For the last few years, interface design in the domain of hypertext has mainly focused on the solution of the navigation problem. Moreover, browsing has been regarded as the most central user activity. While this claim may hold for hypertexts that do not demand a reader’s full attention, such as information kiosks or electronic advertisements, its ...

Interface Matters: Postphenomenological Perspectives on Service Design
2012One of the fundamental questions facing the emerging discipline of service design concerns the definition of its object. In this thesis, I posit that the practice of service design, as a recent development within the tradition of industrial design, may be approached primarily as the design of interfaces between service providers and clients. In chapter
