Combined QCM-D/ellipsometry setup for real-time characterization of thin molecular films
Several surface sensitive techniques are able to monitor the formation and properties of thin molecular films on a sensor surface. As the complexity of the studied systems increases, one technique alone can often not provide all desired insight. Multitechnique approaches provide complementary information, and thus allow for improved interpretation and/or the identification of artifacts. Comparing […]
Analyzing Fuel Cell Electrode Corrosion by Electrochemical QCM-D
Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) are promising for use in applications such as cars, laptops and stationary applications. However, corrosion of the electrodes shortens their lifetime, and better understanding of these processes is necessary to improve PEMFCs and make them a realistic alternative as a source of electricity. Here, QCM-D combined with electrochemistry was […]
