Phenomena Associated with Individual Discharges during Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation
(2019-01-08)This work presents information obtained from high-speed video and electrical monitoring of electrical breakdown (discharge) events during plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of aluminium alloy substrates. Discharges were ... -
Electro-mechanically interfacing with biology using piezoelectric polymer nanostructures
(2019-01-08)Biological cells are naturally exposed to a wealth of stimuli that influence their function and behaviour. In fields where the focus is on artificially growing biological material, such as tissue engineering and regenerative ... -
Rational Design of Novel Halide Perovskites Combining Computations and Experiments
(2019-05-18)The perovskite family of materials is extremely large and provides a template for designing materials for different purposes. Among them, hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) are very interesting and have been ... -
Plastic Deformation in Complex Crystal Structures
(2019-01-26)Many materials with complex crystal structures have attractive properties, including high specific strength, good creep resistance, oxidation resistance, often through high silicon or aluminium content. This makes them of ...
