Metal oxide interfaces, metal coatings or dispersed metals on oxide supports play an
important part in many technological areas. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of fundamental …

We present results from measurements of the native oxide film thickness on four different
industrial aluminum alloys and three different aluminum single crystals. The thicknesses …

Small aluminum nanoparticles have the potential to exhibit localized surface plasmon
resonances in the deep ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum, however …

In order to investigate how metal growth and metal-oxide interaction depend on the
chemical properties of oxide surfaces, we describe a modification procedure which allows …

The initial oxidation of Rh (100) has been studied using high resolution core level
spectroscopy, low energy electron diffraction, surface x-ray diffraction, scanning tunneling …

The localized surface plasmon resonance of metal nanoparticles allows confining the
eletromagnetic field in nanosized volumes, creating high-field “hot spots”, most useful for …

Unwanted processes in metal anode batteries, eg, non-uniform metal electrodeposition,
electrolyte decomposition, and/or short-circuiting, are not fully captured by the electrolyte …

We present photoemission and C 1s photoabsorption data for an annealed monolayer C
60/Al (111), which show that a strong covalent bond is formed between the C 60 molecules …

Nanostructured metals and especially unsupported nanoporous gold (np-Au) have attracted
considerable attention in a variety of fields because of their special surface chemical …

Aluminium batteries (AlBs) have gathered considerable attention, primarily due to the high
capacity, the low cost, the large abundance in the Earth's crust, and the recyclability of the Al …
