	Title	In situ transmission electron microscopy study of the silicidation process in Co thin films on patterned (001) Si substrates			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2001	Publication	Journal of materials research	Abbreviated Journal	J Mater Res
	Volume	16	Issue	3	Pages	701-708
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	The results of an in situ transmission electron microscopy study of the formation of Co-silicides on patterned (001) Si substrates are discussed. It is shown that the results of the in situ heating experiments agreed very well with the data based on standard rapid thermal annealing experiments. Fast heating rates resulted in better definition of the silicide lines. Also, better lines were obtained for samples that received already a low-temperature ex situ anneal. A Ti cap layer gave rise to a higher degree of epitaxy in the CoSi2 silicide.

	Title	Mesoseopic ordering in the 0.9 Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-0.1 PbTiO₃ relaxor ferroelectric : a HRTEM study			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2007	Publication	Physica status solidi: C: conferences and critical reviews	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	4	Issue	3	Pages	736-739
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	We report a microstructural and compositional study of a 90% Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 – 10% PbTiO3 ceramic sample. High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) revealed the presence of compositional ordered nano-domains (1 – 4 mn), observable in two specific orientations, [0 (1) over bar 1] and [1 1 (2) over bar]. However, the visibility and the ordering degree of the nano-domains on the HRTEM images are not at all obvious. Fourier filtering of the images clearly revealed the ordered domains. Antiphase boundaries lying in the (111) planes separate them, while (100) and (111) facets separate the ordered domains from the disordered matrix. Their shape is plate-like, not uniformly spread in the disordered matrix. Their average size varies in different regions of the sample, most probably due to a non-uniform distribution of Ti, as observed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.

	Title	The influence of the h-BN morphology and structure on the c-BN growth			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2001	Publication	Diamond and related materials T2 – 11th European Conference on Diamond, Diamond-like Materials, Carbon, Nanotubes, Nitrides and Silicon Carbide (Diamond 2000), SEP 03-08, 2000, OPORTO, PORTUGAL	Abbreviated Journal	Diam Relat Mater

	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	The morphology and structure of hexagonal graphitic BN (h-BN) powders with graphitization indices GI <5, used as precursors for the synthesis of cubic BN (c-BN) crystals, has been investigated by transmission electron microscopy in diffraction contrast and high resolution. We show that besides the GI, which is a general parameter for controlling the structural quality of h-EN ponders, some other microstructural features strongly influence the synthesis of c-BN. In our opinion, the high reactivity of some h-BN powders results from the presence of some nucleation centers for c-BN, observed at the edges of the h-BN particles. They are formed by a rearrangement of the graphitic (0002) planes by bending back, joining in pairs and forming locally nanoarches (half nanotubes). In these particular places, the nature of bonding locally turns towards sp(3), as in the case of c-BN, (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

	Title	The study of a crater forming on the surface of a Ti target submitted to multipulse excimer laser irradiation under low pressure N₂			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	1996	Publication	Journal of modern optics	Abbreviated Journal	J Mod Optic
	Volume	43	Issue	9	Pages	1773-1784
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	A Ti target was submitted to laser ablation in low ambient pressure N-2. Electron microscopy examination of the cross-section of the crater zone forming on the Ti target, and XPS analyses, indicate that there is a small effect on the nitridation processes taking place on and in the vicinity of the target. The studies show a zone influenced by the multipulse laser treatment extending beneath the crater down to a depth of the same order of magnitude as the crater depth (i.e. similar to 10 mu m). In this zone, TiN could be identified as being present only in traces, while the whole zone exhibited a layer structure with differences in morphology and mechanical wear.

	Volume	10	Issue	9	Pages	2328-2333
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	Nano-scale ordering may be revealed in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) by at least three techniques that will be presented in this work: selected area electron diffraction, conventional TEM and high-resolution TEM. Digital image processing is used to extract additional information from the high-resolution micrographs. The described methods are illustrated in a microstructural and compositional study of a 90%Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-10%PbTiO2 ceramic sample. High-resolution images reveal the presence of ordered compositional nano-domains, observable in two specific crystallographic orientations. Antiphase boundaries lying in the (111) planes separate them, while (100) and (111) facets separate the ordered domains from the disordered matrix.

	Title	Electrochemical growth and characterization of nanostructured ZnO thin films			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2008	Publication	Journal of optoelectronics and advanced materials	Abbreviated Journal	J Optoelectron Adv M
	Volume	10	Issue	12	Pages	3237-3240
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	ZnO is a wide band-gap (ca. 3.4 eV) semiconductor, piezoelectric, pyroelectric, biocompatible, transparent in the visible spectrum and UV light emitting material. The fabrication in 2001 of the first nanobelts of semiconductor oxide materials lead to a rapid expansion of researches concerning one dimensional nanostructures (nanotubes, nanowires, nanobelts), given their possible application in optics, optoelectronics, piezoelectricity, catalysis. Researches carried on up to date evidenced the possibility to obtain an extraordinary variety of ZnO nanostructures, in function of the experimental parameters and the used growth methods. In this work we present morphostructural results on nanostructured ZnO layers obtained by electrochemical deposition. The films have been grown on gold covered glass plates and Si wafers, in various experimental conditions such as: nature of the wetting agents, electrical polarization of the substrate (continuous, pulsed). The influence of the growth conditions on the crystalline structure and morphology of the films is revealed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy studies. The films show a variety of growth morphologies, from entangled-wires-like to honeycomb-like layers. These large-specific-surface layers will be tested as nanostructured substrates for photovoltaic cells with improved efficiency.

	Title	Microstructure and spectroscopy studies on cubic boron nitride synthesized under high-pressure conditions			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2002	Publication	Journal of physics : condensed matter	Abbreviated Journal	J Phys-Condens Mat
	Volume	14	Issue	44	Pages	10983-10988
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	High-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) studies of the microstructure and specific defects in hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) precursors and cubic boron nitride (c-BN) crystals made under high-pressure high-temperature conditions revealed the presence of half-nanotubes at the edges of the h-BN particles. Their sp(3) bonding tendency could strongly influence the nucleation rates of c-BN. The atomic resolution at extended dislocations was insufficient to allow us to determine the stacking fault energy in the c-BN crystals. Its mean value of 191 +/- 15 mJ m(-2) is of the same order of magnitude as that of diamond. High-frequency (94 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance studies on c-BN single crystals have produced new data on the D1 centres associated with the boron species. Ion-beam-induced luminescence measurements have indicated that c-BN is a very interesting luminescent material, which is characterized by four luminescence bands and exhibits a better resistance to ionizing radiation than CVD diamond.

	Title	Incorporation and localization of substitutional Mn²⁺ ions in cubic ZnS quantum dots			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2010	Publication	Physical review : B : condensed matter and materials physics	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev B
	Volume	81	Issue	3	Pages	035336,1-035336,6
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Nanostructured and organic optical and electronic materials (NANOrOPT); Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	Multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) investigations were performed on small (2 nm) cubic ZnS nanocrystals (quantum dotsQDs) doped with 0.2% mol Mn2+, self-assembled into a mesoporous structure. The EPR data analysis shows that the substitutional Mn2+ ions are localized at Zn2+ sites subjected to a local axial lattice distortion, resulting in the observed zero-field-splitting parameter \|D\|=41×10−4 cm−1. The local distortion is attributed to the presence in the second shell of ligands of a stacking fault or twin, which alters the normal stacking sequence of the cubic structure. The HRTEM results confirm the presence of such extended planar defects in a large percentage of the investigated QDs, which makes possible the proposed substitutional Mn2+ impurity ions localization model. Based on these results it is suggested that the high doping levels of Mn2+ ions observed in cubic ZnS and possible in other II-VI semiconductor QDs prepared at low temperatures can be explained by the assistance of the extended lattice defects in the impurities incorporation.
