Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Action Plan B3 of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) focuses on the integrated care of chronic diseases. Area 5 (Care Pathways) was initiated using chronic respiratory diseases as a model. The chronic respiratory disease action plan includes (1) AIRWAYS integrated care pathways (ICPs), (2) the joint initiative between the Reference site MACVIA-LR (Contre les MAladies Chroniques pour un VIeillissement Actif) and ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma), (3) Commitments for Action to the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing and the AIRWAYS ICPs network. It is deployed in collaboration with the World Health Organization Global Alliance against Chronic Respiratory Diseases (GARD). The European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing has proposed a 5-step framework for developing an individual scaling up strategy: (1) what to scale up: (1-a) databases of good practices, (1-b) assessment of viability of the scaling up of good practices, (1-c) classification of good practices for local replication and (2) how to scale up: (2-a) facilitating partnerships for scaling up, (2-b) implementation of key success factors and lessons learnt, including emerging technologies for individualised and predictive medicine. This strategy has already been applied to the chronic respiratory disease action plan of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing.

- Highly ordered, several nanometers thick films of alkylated large planar, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules have been grown on semi-metallic molybdenum disulfide substrates. The films are characterized by a two-dimensional lateral arrangement of columns standing at the surface on a macroscopic scale. The self-assembly of such insulated columns of face-to-face disks with surface-induced vertical alignment has been achieved directly from solution processing. Angle-resolved photoelectron spectra revealed a highly anisotropic quasi-one-dimensional electronic structure with an extended π-electronic wave function. An intermolecular dispersion of the highest occupied band of at least 0.15 eV along the stacking direction has been measured. A partial breakdown of the concept of quasimomentum due to the finite size of the nano-objects perpendicular to the stacks is observed.

- The results of the doping of molecular solid films of the medium-sized aromatic hydrocarbon hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC), using lithium or sodium atoms were presented. The evolution of the valence band electronic structure was monitored by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and studied by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. Results indicated that n-doping depended on the type of alkali-metal atom employed and on the molecular order of the film. The smaller Li ion was found to have a stronger influence on the electronic structure than Na ions. These results revealed the potential use of the graphene materials in lithium-ion batteries with a high charge-storage capacity.

- We used ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) to investigate the energy level alignment at contacts between pentacene and Ag(1 1 1) in the presence of interfacial 6,13-pentacenequinone (PQ). Depending on the metal pre-coverage with PQ, we found evidence for three distinctly different interface morphologies and molecular orientations, accompanied by significant changes of the energy level alignment. Consequently, the hole injection barrier between pentacene and Ag(1 1 1) varied between 1.1 eV (pristine Ag) and 0.45 eV (5.4 nm PQ pre-coverage on Ag). In addition, our UPS results suggest that PQ can act as deep trap for electrons in a pentacene matrix. Depending on the exact mutual orientation of PQ and pentacene, the depth of these traps can be in the range of 0.2-0.75 eV. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

- Ultrathin gallium oxide layers with a thickness of 2.8 ± 0.2 nm were transferred from the surface of liquid gallium onto solid substrates, including conjugated polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). The gallium oxide exhibits high mechanical stability, withstanding normal pressures of up to 1 GPa in contact mode scanning force microscopy imaging. Moreover, it lowers the rate of photodegradation of P3HT by 4 orders of magnitude, as compared to uncovered P3HT. This allows us to estimate the upper limits for oxygen and water vapor transmission rates of 0.08 cm3 m-2 day-1 and 0.06 mg m-2 day-1, respectively. Hence, similar to other highly functional coatings such as graphene, ultrathin gallium oxide layers can be regarded as promising candidates for protective layers in flexible organic (opto-)electronics and photovoltaics because they offer permeation barrier functionalities in conjunction with high optical transparency.

Growth of ordered hexakis-dodecyl-hexabenzocoronene layers from solution : A SFM and ARUPS study

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The layer growth of a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon moiety, hexakis-dodecyl-hexabenzocoronene (HBC-C12), from solution onto a conductive flat solid substrate has been studied. Scanning Force Microscopy (SFM), together with the analysis of the intensities of p-structures in spectra of Angle-Resolved Ultraviolet Photoelectron Spectroscopy (ARUPS) measurements, revealed that the HBC-C12 molecules can self-assemble as dry layers with the conjugated disklike molecules lying flat on the (0001) plane of highly oriented pyrolitic graphite (HOPG). By varying the rate of the molecular physisorption it was possible to orient these molecular architectures along preferential directions according to the symmetry of the substrate. Additionally, the film morphology is affected by the concentration of the solution. This indicates that the growth of these organic layers on HOPG is a kinetically governed process which, if carried out sufficiently slowly, leads to the growth of hetero-epitaxial crystallites.
