Alloying and structural rearrangements in Fe-Au, Co-Au and Ni-Au core- shell nanoparticles Bimetallic nanoparticles formed by a combination of magnetic and noble metals have recently received increased attention as the combination of inter-metallic interactions and surface size effects can trigger unexpected physical behaviour and new phenomena. Understanding the featu ... more |

New synthesis of Vanadium oxide cluster We present a new approach for the synthesis of neutral V2O5 nanoparticles. This is achieved by sublimation from bulk, in combination with a pickup by superfluid helium droplets. Time-of-Flight mass spectroscopy measurements clearly demonstrates the preservation of the bulk stoich ... more |

Impact of collective electrostatic effects on core-level excitations Investigating the influence of collective electrostatic effects is of vital importance when studying hybrid organic-inorganic systems. These are especially crucial when dealing with organic self-assembled monolayers on metal substrates.[1] In this contribution we discuss the appl ... more |

Why is electronic transport in conjugated organic materials rather inefficient? Already several years ago it has been shown that for molecular dimers the electronic coupling between neighboring molecules strongly depends on their relative arrangement.[1,2] When considering semiconducting molecular crystals this relative arrangement of neighboring molecules t ... more |
