Documental “40 años viendo átomos”
Con motivo de los 40 años de la invención del microscopio de efecto túnel, STM, que permitió visualizar átomos por primera vez en la historia, desde el Instituto de Micro y Nanoelectrónica y el Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Madrid hemos preparado un documental con una duración aproximada de 24 min. En él se describe la invención y se cuenta la creación de la escuela española de STM, haciendo un homenaje a dos de sus miembros más destacados, Juan José Sáenz y José María Gómez Rodríguez, que lamentablemente nos dejaron el año pasado. También se hace una semblanza del lado más humano de la actividad científica.
Nanocolumnar films: applications in medicine, energy and aerospace
This webinar will start with showing that nanocolumnar films can be manufactured by magnetron sputtering using the glancing angle deposition configuration. Then, various applications of these nanocolumnar films in several fields will be presented, namely in medicine (antibacterial coatings, bioelectrodes for electric stimulation, SERS substrates), energy (black metal coatings, nanostructured layers for perovskite solar cells, photo-induced self-cleaning surfaces) and aerospace industry (anti-multipactor coatings).

Attosecond state-resolved carrier motion in quantum materials probed by soft x-ray XANES
Author:
Applied Physics Reviews 8, 011408 (2021)
Abstract:
Recent developments in attosecond technology led to table-top x-ray spectroscopy in the soft x-ray range, thus uniting the element- and state-specificity of core-level x-ray absorption spectroscopy with the time resolution to follow electronic dynamics…
A three-shell supramolecular complex enables the symmetry-mismatched chemo- and regioselective bis-functionalization of C60
Author: Ernest Ubasart, Oleg Borodin, Carles Fuertes-Espinosa, Youzhi Xu, Cristina García-Simón, Laura Gómez, Judith Juanhuix, Felipe Gándara, Inhar Imaz, Daniel Maspoch, Max von Delius & Xavi Ribas
Nature Chemistry volume 13, pages420–427 (2021)
Abstract:
Molecular Russian dolls (matryoshkas) have proven useful for testing the limits of preparative supramolecular chemistry but applications of these architectures to problems in other fields are elusive. Here we report a three-shell…
Al2O3 and HfO2 Atomic Layers Deposited in Single and Multilayer Configurations on Titanium and on Stainless Steel for Biomedical Applications
Author: Ivan Spajić, Ehsan Rahimi, Maria Lekka, Ruben Offoiach, Lorenzo Fedrizzi and Ingrid Milošev
, ,
Abstract:
Thin films of alumina and hafnia were prepared by atomic layer deposition, with the aim of investigating the use of such films in biomedical applications. Films were deposited on commercially pure titanium and on medical stainless steel…
Gigahertz Frame Rate Imaging of Charge-Injection Dynamics in a Molecular Light Source
Author: Anna Rosławska, Pablo Merino, Christopher C. Leon, Abhishek Grewal, Markus Etzkorn, Klaus Kuhnke, and Klaus Kern
Nano Lett. 2021, 21, 11, 4577–4583
Abstract:
Light sources on the scale of single molecules can be addressed and characterized at their proper sub-nanometer scale by scanning tunneling microscopy-induced luminescence (STML). Such a source can be driven by defined short charge…
1D charge density wave in the hidden order state of URu2Si2
Author: Edwin Herrera, Víctor Barrena, Isabel Guillamón, José Augusto Galvis, William J. Herrera, José Castilla, Dai Aoki, Jacques Flouquet & Hermann Suderow
Communications Physics. volume 4, Article number: 98 (2021)
Abstract:
Single crystals of URu2Si2 show below 17.5 K a transition into an ordered state with a significantly reduced entropy. The low temperature phase is called the hidden order (HO) state, because its microscopic origin is still unknown—there are no charge….
Selective anodes for seawater splitting via functionalization of manganese oxides by a plasma-assisted process
Author: Lorenzo Bigiani, Davide Barreca, Alberto Gasparotto, Teresa Andreu, Johan Verbeeck, Cinzia Sada, Evgeny Modin, Oleg I. Lebedev, Juan Ramón Morante, Chiara Maccato
Applied Catalysis B: Environmental. Volume 284, 5 May 2021
Abstract:
The electrolysis of seawater, a significantly more abundant natural reservoir than freshwater, stands as a promising alternative for sustainable hydrogen production, provided that the competitive chloride electrooxidation is minimized…
