Silicon-based polymers are outstanding materials for coating applications. These
compounds have excellent properties, such as strong adhesion to most substrates, and high …

Hydrophobic surfaces are often used to reduce wetting of surfaces by water. In particular,
superhydrophobic surfaces are highly desired for several applications due to their …

Atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium (cold) plasma jet technology received enormous
attention in surface processing of materials in the last two decades, and still continues …

Melt-quenched metal–organic framework (MOF) glasses have gained significant interest as
the first new category of glass reported in 50 years. In this work, an amine-functionalized …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings have garnered considerable interest due to their
unique features, which include wear resistance with a low friction coefficient, high hardness …

Recently, medical applications for 3D printing are expanding rapidly and are expected to
revolutionize health care, specifically, manufacturing surgical guides and protective face …

Biofilm-mediated microbial persistence of pathogenic and spoilage bacteria is a serious
problem in food industries. Due to the difficulty of removing mature biofilms, great efforts are …

Biosensors have been extensively developed and applied for biomedical and environmental
studies. Although there are many different types of biosensing techniques, immobilization of …

The purpose of this work is surface characterization of GaAs solar cell using atomic force
microscopy. The surface appearance influences the optical properties of the cells. It impacts …

This work aims at studying the impact of silane-based coatings, generated by atmospheric
pressure plasma spraying (APPS) of a liquid precursor (hexamethydisiloxane–HMDSO), on …
