• supports in the form of nano- and microparticles. Herein, we report on the deposition of platinum on carbon particles using PLD to fabricate cost-efficient catalysts for PEMFCs with good performance. The research aimed to develop an effective physical method of PtNP deposition on carbon supports directly

• tweezers can be used to individually trap nano- and microparticles or molecules in a liquid environment as long as their thermodiffusion coefficient is non-zero and their spatial position can be detected. The stiffness of the trap depends on the Soret coefficient of the trapped particle, thermal gradient
