Biological Activation of Inert Ceramics: Recent Advances Using Tailored Self-Assembled Monolayers on Implant Ceramic Surfaces
High-strength ceramics as materials for medical implants have a long, research-intensive history. Yet, especially on applications where the ceramic components are in direct contact with the surrounding tissue, an unresolved issue is its inherent property of biological inertness. To combat this, several strategies have been investigated over the last couple of years. One promising approach inves...
متن کاملIntegrating structure control over multiple length scales in porous high temperature ceramics with functional platinum nanoparticles.
High temperature ceramics with porosity on multiple length scales offer great promise in high temperature catalytic applications for their high surface area and low flow resistance in combination with thermal and chemical stability. We have developed a bottom-up approach to functional, porous, high-temperature ceramics structured on eight distinct length scales integrating functional Pt nanopar...
متن کاملSelf-assembled ceramics produced by complex-fluid templation.
This review examines the use of self-assembly in the fabrication of ceramic mesostructures, emphasizing the use of amphiphilic surfactants and block copolymers. The association between this area of research and biomimetics is discussed, linking developments in synthetic self-assembly with biomineralization. The fabrication of hierarchical structures through the use of simultaneous processing is...
متن کاملElectronic transport in self-assembled alkanethiol monolayers
Electron tunneling through self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiols is investigated. Temperature-dependent current– voltage measurements are performed to distinguish between di erent conduction mechanisms. Temperature-independent electron transport is observed, proving direct tunneling as the dominant conduction mechanism of alkanethiols. An exponential dependence of tunneling current on molec...
متن کاملPorous and dense Hafnium and Zirconium Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics for solar receivers
The present work reports on the comparative characterization of optical properties of hafnium and zirconium-based ultra-refractory ceramics at room and high temperature, in view of their possible use in novel solar receivers for thermal solar plants operating at higher temperatures. We show how porosity and surface finishing affect both the spectral reflectance and the high-temperature emittanc...
