¤ Make your own Web site when you don't know anything about it

This is recreation time! How to make a web site for the dummies.

¤ Electrolysis of LiOH for hydrogen supply (article)

This is a very important article for the future of our planet. :) It explains how to use LiH to store hydrogen efficiently.

¤ Thermoconductivity in polymer composites

Mostly targetting thermal conductivity improvement of polymers by addition of nanoparticules.

¤ Boron Nitride (BN) Versus Carbon NT: Review, and Development Perspectives

A general report for those interested in boron nitride synthesis.

¤ Synthesis of moustache carbon fibers (article)

This is an article on how to make a type of carbon fiber with graphene layers perpendicular to fiber axis.

¤ Article database on nanostructures and nanotechnology

Originally, this was supposed to become an interactive database for articles related to nanotubes and nanotechnology. However, to be honest, I never had time to complete the project. Still, it is a good bibliography on the subject, with about 300 articles cited.

¤ Electron Diffraction pattern of boron nitride nanotubes

This is an article which goes quite deeply into electron diffraction. It is a first instance of such diffraction on boron nitride nanotubes.

¤ Temperatures gradients and nanotubes growth (article)

This is a very personal article in which I discuss the influence of stiff temperature gradient on the nanometer scale.

¤ Boron Nitride Nanotubes Grown by Non-Ablative Laser Heating: Synthesis, Characterisation and Growth Process

This is the original PhD, which describes in details the method to make boron nitride nanotubes with a CO2 laser, and other related issues.

¤ Long boron nitride nanotubes in ropes grown by a continuous laser heating

This was my first article, and probably still my best.

¤ Some applications of carbon and boron nitride nanostructures

Again, this is probably a little outdated (1998).

¤ On the different methods to make carbon and boron nitride nanostructures

This is probably a little outdated (1998).

¤ Generalities on carbon and boron nitride nanostructures

This is just a very basic introduction.
