PLA/PA bio-blends: induced morphology by extrusion [PDF]
, 2019 The effect of processing conditions on the final morphology of Poly(Lactic Acid) (PLA) with bio-based Polyamide 10.10 (PA) 70/30 blends is analyzed in this paper. Two types of PLA were used: Commercial (neat PLA) and a rheologically modified PLA (PLAREx),

Drop-Wise and Film-Wise Water Condensation Processes Occurring on Metallic Micro-Scaled Surfaces
, 2018 Water condensation was studied on silanized (superhydrophobic) and fluorinated (superoleophobic) micro-rough aluminum surfaces of the same topography. Condensation on superhydrophobic surfaces occurred via film-wise mechanism, whereas on superoleophobic ...

Tuning the plasmonic properties of silver nanopatterns fabricated by shadow nanosphere lithography [PDF]
, 2016 Regular silver (Ag) nanopatterns, from disconnected nanotriangles to well coupled triangular clusters of nanoparticles, were prepared by shadow nanosphere lithography at different incident angles θ from 0 degrees to 20 degrees with continuous azimuthal ...

Highly indistinguishable single photons from incoherently and coherently excited GaAs quantum dots
, 2019 Semiconductor quantum dots are converging towards the demanding requirements of photonic quantum technologies. Among different systems, quantum dots with dimensions exceeding the free-exciton Bohr radius are appealing because of their high oscillator ...

The influence of crystallographic orientation on the wetting of silicon on quartz single crystals [PDF]
, 2011 Dynamic hexagonal spreading patterns of small silicon droplets on the basal plane (001) of quartz were observed by video microscopy. A detailed analysis of the hexagonal triple line demonstrates that the patterns show slight chiral distortions that can ...

Generation of micro-droplet arrays by dip-coating of biphilic surfaces; the dependence of entrained droplet volume on withdrawal velocity [PDF]
, 2017 Droplet array chips were realized using an alignment-free fabrication process in silicon. The chips were textured with a homogeneous nano-scale surface roughness but were partially covered with a self-assembled monolayer of perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane (

Bouncing or sticky droplets: impalement transitions on superhydrophobic micropatterned surfaces
, 2005 When a liquid drops impinges a hydrophobic rough surface it can either bounce off the surface (fakir droplets) or be impaled and strongly stuck on it (Wenzel droplets).
