Effect of Subphase Ions on Multilayer Deposition of an Anionic Gemini Surfactant on Solid Substrates
Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.Multilayer formation in Gemini surfactant films with subphase ions. ABSTRACT A recently reported anionic Gemini surfactant belonging to the “minimal linker” family has been shown to form closely packed crystalline monolayers at the air–water interface, like a simple fatty acid, but its ability to deposit onto solid substrates as multilayer films ...

Strain-mediated metal-insulator transition in epitaxial ultra-thin films of NdNiO3
, 2010 We have synthesized epitaxial NdNiO$_{3}$ ultra-thin films in a layer-by-layer growth mode under tensile and compressive strain on SrTiO$_{3}$ (001) and LaAlO$_3$ (001), respectively. A combination of X-ray diffraction, temperature dependent resistivity,

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.In randomly distributed Cu2O octahedron particles on a glass substrate, the absence of particles in certain areas generates a distinct “void‐particle induced interference” phenomenon. This effect results in notable reflection and transmission dichroism, characterized by two reflection peaks within the visible spectrum, but only a single transmission ...

Superimposed Sacrificial Texturing to Enhance the Optical Performance in Thin‐Film Solar Cells
Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.Sacrificial texturing method using controlled etching of undoped zinc oxide and indium‐doped tin oxide generates microscale and nanoscale textures on glass. Roughness on two different scales is superimposed to create a new texture capable of broad‐spectrum scattering, which is utilised in thin‐film silicon solar cells to enhance optical performance ...
