Press release:

In this dissertation charged particle beams are the main utilized methods in realizing new characterization, surface treatment and microfabrication methods. In the main focus are focused ion beam, electron microscopy and electron tomography methods. The developed methods have been utilized in novel sensor applications, in rapid nanofabrication of silicon structures and to improve contrast and resolution of Nafion film characterization by electron beam tomography. The results are being utilized in Nafion based electrochemical sensors, growth of nanowires, corrosion protection of high speed steel, increasing electrical conductance of carbon nanotube fiber bundles and micron size device platforms.
