Nano‐sculptured thin films (nSTFs) is a group of meterials prepared by the oblique or the
glancing angle deposition technique. They take the form of rods having different shapes …

The aim of this study was to reproduce the physico-mechanical antibacterial effect of the
nanocolumnar cicada wing surface for metallic biomaterials by fabrication of titanium (Ti) …

A biosensor chip is developed for the detection of a protein biomarker of endocrine
disrupting compounds, vitellogenin (Vg) in aquatic environment. The sensor chip is …

Surface-enhanced fluorescence from porous, metallic sculptured thin films (STFs) was
demonstrated for sensing of bacteria in water. Enhancement factors larger than 15 were …

Metallic thin films consisting of separated nanostructures are fabricated by evaporative
glancing angle deposition at room temperature. The columnar microstructure of the Ti and …

Ordered arrays of Si nanorods and nanospirals have been produced by ion beam sputter
glancing angle deposition of Si on rotating substrates. The substrates were prepatterned …

The interaction of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) with Ti and TiO 2 nano-
columnar surfaces fabricated using glancing angle sputter deposition was investigated. The …

Ion beam etching based ultra precision surface finishing is a versatile technology with a high
degree of predictability due to the high stability of state of the art ion sources and the …

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from silver nanosculptured thin films (STF) was
studied in detail for biosensing. The influences of the nanostructures' sizes, topology, the …

A route for the fabrication of magnetic nanotubes is established by combining glancing
angle deposition (GLAD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD). In a first step, arrays of inclined …
