Ordered nanocone arrays of the electroactive polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) were fabricated by the simultaneous oxygen plasma etching of an electrodeposited PEDOT thin film coated with a hexagonally closed packed polystyrene bead monolayer. PEDOT nanocone arrays with an intercone spacing of 200 nm and an average nanocone height of 350 nm exhibited a low broadband reflectivity ...

The effect of ion-plasma treatment on the physical properties surface GaTe crystals is investigated. Gallium telluride were grown by vertical zone melting under pressure an inert argon gas 10.0 MPa at a temperature 1000 o C and displacement velocity 9 mm/hr. was carried out in plasma high-density low-pressure radio frequency (RF) inductively coupled reactor ion energy 100-200 eV for 15-120 s. U...

Light reflectance mitigation is the most crucial factor for achieving optimal photodetector performance. In this respect, light-trapping mechanisms based on nanostructures or microstructures such as nanopillars, nanocones and nanopyramids have emerged promising candidate reducing overall light reflectance. This because of their large effective irradiation area, multiple scattering incident incr...

One of the major limitations during titanium (Ti) implant osseointegration is poor cellular interactions at biointerface. In present study, combined effect recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (rhBMP-2) and nanopatterned Ti6Al4V fabricated with Directed irradiation synthesis (DIS) investigated in vitro. This environmentally-friendly plasma uses ions to create self-organized nanostruct...
