Ionization in vacuum ultraviolet F2 laser ablated polymer plumes (2007)
Journal Article
Dyer, P. E., Pervolaraki, M., Walton, C. D., Lippert, T., Kuhnke, M., & Wokaun, A. (2008). Ionization in vacuum ultraviolet F2 laser ablated polymer plumes. Applied physics. A, Materials science & processing, 90(3), 403-409. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00339-007-4341-x

An experimental investigation of ion generation in the 157-nm vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) F-2 laser ablation of three selected polymers - glycidyl azide polymer (GAP), a triazene polymer (TP6) and polyimide - is described. An ion collector probe is used... Read More about Ionization in vacuum ultraviolet F2 laser ablated polymer plumes.

Enhancing the radiative decay rate of fluorescent organic molecules using micropillar microcavities and optical nanocavities (2007)
Journal Article
Adawi, A. M., & Lidzey, D. G. (2008). Enhancing the radiative decay rate of fluorescent organic molecules using micropillar microcavities and optical nanocavities. Materials Science and Engineering: B, 149(3), 266-269. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mseb.2007.10.005

We discuss the enhancement of spontaneous emission of fluorescent organic dyes when placed in micropillar microcavities and also in an optical nanocavity. We show experimentally that an enhancement in the spontaneous-emission rate of 1.78 +/- 0.04 ti...

Are polyelectrolyte dendrimers stimuli responsive? (2007)
Journal Article
Giupponi, G., Buzza, D. M. A., & Adolf, D. B. (2007). Are polyelectrolyte dendrimers stimuli responsive?. Macromolecules, 40(16), 5959-5965. https://doi.org/10.1021/ma070609l

Using a molecular dynamics and mean field theory approach which explicitly accounts for free ions, we study the conformation of polyelectrolyte dendrimers for different generation numbers, spacer lengths, charge distributions and ionic strengths. We... Read More about Are polyelectrolyte dendrimers stimuli responsive?.

An HI survey of six local group analogs. I. Survey description and the search for high-velocity clouds (2007)
Journal Article
Pisano, D. J., Barnes, D. G., Gibson, B. K., Staveley-Smith, L., Freeman, K. C., & Kilborn, V. A. (2007). An HI survey of six local group analogs. I. Survey description and the search for high-velocity clouds. The Astrophysical journal, 662(2), 959-968. https://doi.org/10.1086/517986

We have conducted an H I 21 cm emission-line survey using the Parkes 20 cm multibeam instrument and the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) of six loose groups of galaxies chosen to be analogs to the Local Group. The goal of this survey is to ma... Read More about An HI survey of six local group analogs. I. Survey description and the search for high-velocity clouds.

Soft photo structuring of porous silicon in water (2007)
Journal Article
Juan, M., Bouillard, J. S., Plain, J., Bachelot, R., Adam, P. M., Lerondel, G., & Royer, P. (2007). Soft photo structuring of porous silicon in water. physica status solidi (a), 204(5), 1276-1280. https://doi.org/10.1002/pssa.200674307

We report on local photo‐induced patterning of porous silicon in water. Scanning probe microscopy images of the sample surface after illumination show that the emission properties as well as the topography are modified according to the interferometri...

Monte Carlo simulation of random branching in hyperbranched polymers (2007)
Journal Article
Richards, E. L., Buzza, D. M. A., & Davies, G. R. (2007). Monte Carlo simulation of random branching in hyperbranched polymers. Macromolecules, 40(6), 2210-2218. https://doi.org/10.1021/ma0700126

We study the branching statistics of hyperbranched polymers formed from a one-pot melt polymerization of AB2 monomers via Monte Carlo simulation. To simulate the reaction ensemble, we use a 3D percolation-type model where each lattice site of a cubic... Read More about Monte Carlo simulation of random branching in hyperbranched polymers.
