To fully enfold the significant advantage of extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) in the high-volume realization of the next generation technology nodes, high sensitivity EUVL resist formulations, tailored to the electron driven chemistry triggered in EUVL are essential. Here we address this by st...

Fulbrighters in Focus: João Pereira da Silva

O Fulbrighter publicou o artigo, Interaction of 25 eV electrons with DNA constituents: XPS analysis of calf thymus DNA, nucleosides, que resulta da investigação realizada ao abrigo de uma Bolsa Fulbright para Investigação com o apoio da FCT (20/21) na University of Notre Dame Band, IN, EUA.: «É com grande satisfação que vejo esta investigação publicada, algo que não teria sido possível sem o apoio da Comissão Fulbright Portugal.»
Muito obrigada, João, e Parabéns, well done!
