Molecular Dynamics in Polymer Nanocomposites
Our aim is to determine whether the fast dynamics, of either the backbone or the phenyl ring of polystyrene, are altered by the presence of carbon nanotubes, and, if so, whether... -
A new plastic phase in PCBM from low-energy inlelastic neutron scattering
Phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) is a fullerene-based material of high technological interest due to its use in organic solar photovoltaic cells. A better... -
Hydrogen from ammonia using lithium imide metal nitride composites
Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to... -
