Inferring the Surface Energy Distribution of Low Dimensional Materials
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2018)
Two dimensional nanomaterials exhibit novel and superlative properties, as such; the
last decade has seen huge research interest in 2D nanomaterials. To fully exploit these
properties it is essential to ...
Spin-dependent transport properties of Fe3O4/MoS2/Fe3O4 junctions.
(2015)
Magnetite is a half-metal with a high Curie temperature of 858 K, making it a promising candidate for magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). Yet, initial efforts to exploit its half metallic nature in Fe3O4/MgO/Fe3O4 MTJ ...
Negative Gauge Factor Piezoresistive Composites Based on Polymers Filled with MoS2 Nanosheets
(2019)
Nanocomposite strain sensors, particularly those consisting of polymer–graphene composites, are increasingly common and are of great interest in the area of wearable sensors. In such sensors, application of strain yields ...
Development of a vessel-mimicking material for use in anatomically realistic Doppler flow phantoms
(2011)
Polyvinyl alcohol cryogel, (PVA-C) is presented as a vessel mimicking material for use in anatomically realistic Doppler flow phantoms. Three different batches of 10 % wt PVA-C containing (i) PVA-C alone, (ii) PVA C with ...
Simulation and analysis of foam structure
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Physics, 2017)
We use the method of bond-orientational order parameter analysis on X-ray tomographic data to investigate the interal structure of an experimental sample of ~25 000 microbubbles. By employing appropriate cutoff distances ...
Searching for signatures of electromagnetic cascades in the intergalactic medium initiated by blazars
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Physics, 2012)
Very high energy (VHE) y-ray astronomy has opened a new window into the Universe at
the highest energies, allowing the exploration of unique astrophysical phenomena. This thesis
constitutes an observational contribution ...
A Commercial Conducting Polymer as Both Binder and Conductive Additive for Silicon Nanoparticle-Based Lithium-Ion Battery Negative Electrodes
(2016)
This work describes silicon nanoparticle-based lithium-ion battery negative electrodes where multiple non-active electrode additives (usually carbon black and an inert polymer binder) are replaced with a single conductive ...
Two-photon absorption photocurrent enhancement in bulk AlGaAs semiconductor microcavities
(2002)
We report on two-photon absorption ~TPA! photocurrent in semiconductor microcavities. We
experimentally show a substantial increase in the TPA photocurrent generated, at resonance, in a
GaAlAs/GaAs microcavity designed ...
