Journal ArticleDOI
Au nanoparticle-functionalised WO3 nanoneedles and their application in high sensitivity gas sensor devices
Stella Vallejos,Toni Stoycheva,Polona Umek,Cristina Navío,Rony Snyders,Carla Bittencourt,Eduard Llobet,Christopher S. Blackman,Savio J. A. Moniz,Xavier Correig +9 more
TL;DR: Co-deposition of Au nanoparticles with WO(3) nanoneedles has been used to deposit a sensing layer directly onto gas sensor substrates providing devices with a six-fold increase in response to low concentrations of a test analyte (ethanol).
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical characterization of a microwave pulsed discharge used for dissociation of CO2
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the conversion of CO2 into CO and O in a flowing gas surfaguide pulsed microwave discharge operating with CO2 and CO2 + N2 gas mixtures under different conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free-Radical-Induced Grafting from Plasma Polymer Surfaces
TL;DR: The goal of this review is to illustrate the increasing application of plasma-based technologies for tuning the surface properties of polymers, principally through free-radical chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Room temperature responses of visible-light illuminated WO3 sensors to NO2 in sub-ppm range
Chao Zhang,Abdelhamid Boudiba,Patrizia De Marco,Rony Snyders,Marie-Georges Olivier,Marc Debliquy +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of visible-light illumination on sensing properties of tungsten trioxide (WO3) sensors have been investigated, and the results show that visible light can effectively activate the WO3 sensors and blue light is a good choice to produce room-temperature devices which are suited for NO2 sensing applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma diagnostics for understanding the plasma?surface interaction in HiPIMS discharges: a review
TL;DR: The physical and chemical aspects of plasma surface interaction in high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) discharges are overviewed in this article, where the data obtained by various plasma diagnostic methods representing the important sputtering discharge regions, namely the cathode vicinity, plasma bulk, and substrate vicinity, are reported.
