Nanoarchitectures based on graphene and carbon nanotubes: design, synthesis and properties

The general objective of this thesis is the development, characterization and application of solid contact ion selective electrodes (SC-ISEs) based on a layer of carbon

Interestingly, when using carbon nanotubes as the transducer material [7] for the detection of the same microorganism the differences between the covalent and the non-

On standing, further HMF dissolves in oleum as shown by the increase in the absorption bands in the UV (see Figure 6), and the ini- tial featureless long tail absorption starts to

conjugates to the latest works involving the functionalization/exfoliation of graphene with Pcs, a great expertise on the chemical protocols towards the preparation of Pc-carbon

We have deliberately introduced single carbon vacancies on a graphene monolayer grown on a Pt(111) surface and investigated its impact in the electronic, structural, and

We compare the mechanical properties of fibers made of polymers and of composites with pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), mechanically interlocked

An Andreev reflection involves an electron incoming from the normal region into the superconducting one that is reflected as a hole, injecting a Cooper pair into the superconductor..

MD simulations were performed with the LAMMPS software suite [282] and the reactive force field AIREBO [41, 283] was used to describe the interatomic carbon interactions on the
