A systematic experimental study applying nanosecond laser pulses with 532 nm radiation to a specially selected set of historical paper samples exhibiting a broad range of composition and origin was undertaken to develop a quantitative... more
The laser-induced deformation of a typical commercial cantilever commonly used for scanning near-field optical microscopes was investigated by means of a software package based on the finite element method. The thermo-mechanical behaviour... more
PAPER Kautek et al. Optical near-fi eld excitation at commercial scanning probe microscopy tips: a theoretical and experimental investigation A systematic study of the influence of the excitation angle, the light polarization and the... more
Galvanic interaction between carbon steel and six galvanic coating materials including SIGAL®-aluminum, cadmium, zinc and duplex combinations with copper, nickel and tin has been studied by potentiodynamic techniques and continuous... more
We present an Yb-fiber oscillator with an all-polarization-maintaining cavity with a higher-order-mode fiber for dispersion compensation. The polarization maintaining higher order mode fiber introduces not only negative second order... more
Laser spot size and pulse number are two major parameters influencing the ablation of solids. The extended defect model describes the dependence of the threshold fluence on the basis of high and low density defects. This model was... more
The spot size dependence of pulse laser-induced ablation thresholds of solid materials cannot be satisfactory described by the two existing quantitative models based on defect densities and on heat accumulation. In the present study, the... more

A model of the impedance of porous electrodes was derived. The model generalized the de Levie model in so far that an in-homogeneous inside electrode surface is assumed. Then the charge transfer resistance and the double-layer capacity... more
In situ reflection absorption FTIR spectroscopy (in situ FTIR) and small spot X-ray electron emission spectroscopy (XPS) of emersed electrodes were used to examine the electrochemical double layer on glassy carbon (GC) and the anodic... more
