Christopher C. Bohn, Amit Agrawal, Erich C. Walter, Mark D. Vaudin, Andrew Herzing, Paul M. Haney, Albert A. Talin, Veronika Szalai
Sputtered-deposited films of α-Fe2O3 of thickness 600 nm were investigated as photoanodes for solar water splitting and found to have photocurrents as high as 0

Metal-Assisted Hydrogen Storage on Pt-Decorated Single-Walled Carbon Nanohorns

Author(s)
Yun Liu, Craig M. Brown, Dan A. Neumann, David B. Geohegan, Alexander A. Puretzky, Christopher M. Rouleau, Hui Hu, David Styers-Barnett, Pavel O. Krasnov, Boris I. Yakobson
Current methods to study the spillover effect in hydrogen storage materials typically must compare the results from a separate reference sample. This makes it

Photo-induced Surface Transformation of Silica Nanocomposites

Author(s)
Justin M. Gorham, Tinh Nguyen, Coralie Bernard, Deborah S. Jacobs, Richard D. Holbrook
The physicochemical, UV-induced surface modifications to silica nanoparticle (SiNP) - epoxy composites have been investigated. The silica nanocomposites (SiNCs)

The electro-mechanical properties of a suspended graphene layer are determined by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) measurements and

Hydrodynamic chromatography

Author(s)
Andre M. Striegel, Amandaa Brewer
Hydrodynamic chromatography (HDC) has experienced a resurgence in recent years for particle and polymer characterization due, principally, to its coupling to a
