The Institute of Micro-and Nanotechnology MacroNano® at Technische Universität Ilmenau was founded in 2005 to provide a structural base for interdisciplinary research ranging from basic to applied and application-oriented research with a strong focus on nano- and microsystems. It comprises the competences of several engineering and natural science groups of the university. The paper will cover current...
Regularly faceted copper (Cu) particles ranging from tens of nanometers to submicron were obtained by annealing Cu-Zr films on polyimide and single Si (100) substrates. XRD, TEM, SEM and EDS were used to characterize their microstructural properties. The results show that these particles are pure Cu element and single crystals with [111] preferred orientation. Systematical analysis demonstrates that...
In this study, we are focusing on the detailed control of the size and density of nanoparticles on the substrate by employing the gas-phase catalyst. To fabricate iron (Fe) nanoparticles as catalyst, Fe(CO)5 gas was used. Size and density of the nanoparticles can be controlled by varying the experimental parameters, such as the molar flow rate, the decomposition temperature and the flow time. Quartz...
This study was designed to develop and evaluate a chitosan-collagen-soybean phosphatidylcholine (SPC) complex film impregnated with mitomycin C (MMC)-PLA- nanoparticles for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma in mice. MMC-PLA-nanoparticles were prepared by a reverse micelle-solvent evaporation method. PLA-MMC-nanoparticles were dispersed throughout the film. SEM, ATR-FTIR were used to character...
Conventional solid state memory technologies such as flash memory, DRAM, and SRAM are facing scaling challenges due to fundamental limitations. Therefore, various new memory technologies are being widely researched and evaluated to continue the cost/performance improvement trend of solid state memory devices. To assess the potential scalability of emerging nanoscale memory beyond conventional limits,...
A 1 GHz surface transverse wave resonator on 36?? Y-cut quartz plate coated with organothiol-functionalized gold nanoparticle film has been studied as a chemical gas sensor. Considerable sensitivity of the resonant frequency to vapors of ethanol, methanol, chloroform, and acetic acid has been found. Owing to the high short-term stability of the oscillator built, the detection limit is in the low ppm...
In this paper, using a polyfluorene derivative, increased fluorescence quantum efficiency and reduced red-shift in the film form of polymer nanoparticle luminophors is achieved, when compared to directly spin coated polymer thin films.
Nano-sized powders of transparent conductive aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) have been successfully prepared by electrolysis-modified co-precipitation method. By adding ammonium hydroxide into the precursor solution prepared by electrolytic dissolution of zinc metal in a buffered electrolyte solution of nitric acid and ammonium nitrate with adequate addition of aluminum nitrate, co-precipitate precursors...
Well aligned Si nanowires (SiNWs) by Vapor-Liquid-Solid growth process are presented. Instead of using H2, the current work uses N2 as carrier gas. The growth conditions of SiNWs are controlled by the ratio of nitrogen versus silane gas. Tapering of nanowires was found at T=620degC and P=333 m torr, and the tapering parameter was reduced by increasing the N2 gas. Tapering of nanowires is attributed...
