Large Tunable Spin-to-Charge Conversion Induced by Hybrid Rashba and Dirac Surface States in Topological Insulator Heterostructures

Nano Letters, 19(7), 4420–4426.

By: R. Sun* , S. Yang n, X. Yang *, E. Vetter n, D. Sun n , N. Li *, L. Su *, Y. Li* ...

author keywords: Spintronics; topological insulator; topological insulator junction; inverse Edelstein effect; Rashba surface state; spin-charge conversion
topics (OpenAlex): Topological Materials and Phenomena; Advanced Condensed Matter Physics; Graphene research and applications
TL;DR: It is found thatλIEE alters as a function of bismuth interlayer thickness, suggesting a new degree of freedom to manipulate λIEE by engineering the interplay of Rashba and Dirac surface states. (via Semantic Scholar)

2017 journal article

Selective sensing of ethylene and glucose using carbon-nanotube-based sensors: an ab initio investigation

Nanoscale, 9(4), 1687–1698.

By: Y. Li n, M. Hodak n, W. Lu n  & J. Bernholc n 

topics (OpenAlex): Electrochemical sensors and biosensors; Analytical Chemistry and Sensors; Advanced biosensing and bioanalysis techniques
TL;DR: A clear atomistic picture emerges about the mechanisms involved in glucose and ethylene sensing: semiconducting nanotubes exhibit good sensitivities in both cases, and the current through metallic nanot tubes is only weakly affected by analyte attachment. (via Semantic Scholar)

The Soft-Confined Method for Creating Molecular Models of Amorphous Polymer Surfaces

Liu, H., Li, Y., Krause, W. E., Rojas, O. J., & Pasquinelli, M. A. (2012, January 31). The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, Vol. 116, pp. 1570–1578.

By: H. Liu  n, Y. Li*, W. Krause n, O. Rojas n & M. Pasquinelli n 

Contributors: H. Liu  n, Y. Li*, W. Krause n, O. Rojas n & M. Pasquinelli n 

MeSH headings : Cellulose / chemistry; Molecular Dynamics Simulation; Polypropylenes / chemistry; Water / chemistry
topics (OpenAlex): Material Dynamics and Properties; Microfluidic and Capillary Electrophoresis Applications; Surface Modification and Superhydrophobicity
TL;DR: A new method to produce molecular models for amorphous surface layers of polypropylene and cellulose was developed, which involved the use of a "soft" confining layer comprised of a xenon crystal that compacts the polymers into a density distribution and a degree of molecular surface roughness that corresponds well to experimental values.

Mesoscopic Simulations of the Phase Behavior of Aqueous EO19PO29EO19 Solutions Confined and Sheared by Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Surfaces

Liu, H., Li, Y., Krause, W. E., Pasquinelli, M. A., & Rojas, O. J. (2011, December 2). ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, Vol. 4, pp. 87–95.

By: H. Liu  n, Y. Li*, W. Krause*, M. Pasquinelli*  & O. Rojas*

Contributors: H. Liu  n, Y. Li*, W. Krause*, M. Pasquinelli*  & O. Rojas*

author keywords: triblock nonionic polymers; pluronics; MesoDyn; lubrication; boundary layer; spherical micelles; cylindrical micelles; wormlike micelles
topics (OpenAlex): Surfactants and Colloidal Systems; Advanced Polymer Synthesis and Characterization; Polymer composites and self-healing
TL;DR: It is indicated that aqueous triblock copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(propylene oxide) (PPO) (Pluronics, EO(m)PO(n)EO(m)) act as a boundary lubricant for hydrophobic surfaces but not for hydphilic ones. (via Semantic Scholar)
