FROM OUR JOINT RESEARCH

Platinum Forms Nano-Bubbles

Technologically important noble metal oxidises more readily than expected

FROM OUR JOINT RESEARCH

GISAXS alignment aids based on mesoporous silica thin films available for users

Mesoporous silica films, having ordered structure, can be employed as reference samples to align GISAXS stages. They could also be used as sample supports to deliver fluids through porosity. The activity has been conducted at the TUG facility in Trieste.
