How (not) to give a talk „Powerpoint poisoning“ is an effect described in the academic literature (Visterin et al., 2012) and refers to the tendency urge to create presentations that overburden the audience with information. This leads to an absent-minded and inattentive audience, and, consequently, ... more |

Development of icephobic coatings based on patterned surfaces Innovative solutions are needed to produce ice-repellant coatings. The challenge of creating an ice-repellant coating is that it should be repellant to ice/water but also well adherent to the subsrate. One of the most novel approaches regards the development of discontinuities, w ... more |

In-situ characterisation of thin film wet-chemical etch processes using Quartz Crystal Microbalance Every year, constraints tighten on processes affecting the critical-dimensions of semiconducting devices. Wet etch & clean processes therefore benefit from continuous characterisation of material etch-rate and etched amount. A Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) is an extremely pr ... more |

Development of an in-situ stage for microCT measurements with controlled humidity and temperature Micro-CT is an excellent tool for non-destructive structural analysis. Its ease of use and sufficiently high resolution make it a prime candidate for observing structural changes in composite or porous materials such as paper. Water uptake in such materials can be a rather comple ... more |

Thin Film Forming Properties and Polymorphism of a Benzothieno Benzothiphene Derivative Organic semiconductors (OSCs) offer distinct advantages over inorganic counterparts for thin-film transistor applications. Among them, benzothieno[3,2-b]benzothiophene (BTBT) core-based small molecules are promising as p-type semiconductors. This study investigated the crystal st ... more |

Monitoring structural changes in paper upon solvent uptake with Xray tomography The incorporation of water and organic volatiles, such as DMSO, by paper is a complex interplay between capillary transport and structural changes within cellulose-lignin-based fibers. Though paper is a convenience product used every day, little is known how swelling affects the ... more |

Pharmaceutical phase equilibria and the polymorphism of pyrazinamide Phase equilibria are considered a thing of the past since "Phase Theory" has been published by J.W. Gibbs 150 years ago. However, the richness in possibilities to control pharmaceutical formulations and on the other hand the delicate task of ensuring the stability of such formula ... more |

Atomic-scale insights into frictional energy dissipation mechanisms during single-molecule manipulation Friction causes significant energy loss in any moving mechanical device. As the miniaturisation of devices reaches the quantum limit, so do dynamical dissipation processes. Fundamentally quantum mechanical mechanisms govern friction at the nanoscale. We account for all relevant q ... more |
