Journal Article
Vernieres, J., Tarrat, N., Lethbridge, S., Watchorn-Rokutan, E., Slater, T., Loffreda, D., & Palmer, R. E. (2023). Influence of air exposure on structural isomers of silver nanoparticles. Communications Chemistry, 6, Article 19. https://doi.org/10.1038/s42004-023-00813-9

Up to date, the influence of ambient air exposure on the energetics and stability of silver clusters has rarely been investigated and compared to clusters in vacuum. Silver clusters up to 3000 atoms in size, on an amorphous carbon film, have been exp... Read More about Influence of air exposure on structural isomers of silver nanoparticles.

On the Use of Carbon Cables from Plastic Solvent Combinations of Polystyrene and Toluene in Carbon Nanotube Synthesis (2021)
Journal Article
Orbaek White, A., Hedayati, A., Yick, T., Shenoy Gangoli, V., Niu, Y., Lethbridge, S., …E. Palmer, R. (2022). On the Use of Carbon Cables from Plastic Solvent Combinations of Polystyrene and Toluene in Carbon Nanotube Synthesis. Nanomaterials, 12(1), Article 9. https://doi.org/10.3390/nano12010009

For every three people on the planet, there are approximately two Tonnes (Te) of plastic waste. We show that carbon recovery from polystyrene (PS) plastic is enhanced by the coaddition of solvents to grow carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by liquid injection c...
