Nanostructured Electrodes as Catalysts for the Water Splitting Reaction
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2018)
The production of hydrogen through the electrochemical water splitting reaction is an attractive energy storage solution for intermittent natural resources. This comprises of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the ...
Contact resistivity and suppression of Fermi level pinning in side-contacted germanium nanowires
(2013)
Electrical properties of contact-interfaces in germanium nanowire field effect transistor devices are studied. In contrast to planar bulk devices, it is shown that the active conduction channel and gate length extend between ...
Mortality: a physics perspective
(2021)
One of the many interests of the late Dietrich Stauffer was the modelling of mortality. Here we review the features of mortality data for various biological species. Age specific mortality (death rate) leads to a discussion ...
Ab Initio and Kinetic Modeling of β-d-Xylopyranose under Fast Pyrolysis Conditions
(2024)
Lignocellulosic biomass is an abundant renewable resource that can be upgraded to chemical and fuel products through a range of thermal conversion processes. Fast pyrolysis is a promising technology that uses high temperatures ...
Field-effect transistor made of individual V2O5 nanofibers
(American Institute of Physics, 2000)
A field-effect transistor (FET) with a channel length of ~ 100 nm was constructed from a small number of individual V2O5 fibers of the cross section 1.5nm?10nm. At low temperature, the conductance increases as the gate ...
The effect of deposition power on the electrical properties of Al-doped zinc oxide thin films
(2010)
We investigated the effect on the electronic properties of aluminum (Al)-zinc oxide (ZnO) films by modulating the radio frequency sputtering power. Our experimental results show that increasing the sputtering power increases ...
Probing the Solar Corona at High Temporal and Spatial Resolution with the Low Frequency Array
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2022)
The solar corona is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere. Advancements in radio astronomy over the last 50 years have revealed a number of radio phenomena which occur in the corona each with different temporal and ...
Ferrimagnetism of the magnetoelectric compound Cu2OSeO3 probed by Se-77 NMR
(2010)
We present a thorough 77Se NMR study of a single crystal of the magnetoelectric compound Cu2OSeO3.
The temperature dependence of the local electronic moments extracted from the NMR data is fully consistent
with a magnetic ...
