Resonant tunnelling and negative differential conductance in graphene transistors (2013)
Journal Article
Britnell, L., Gorbachev, R., Geim, A., Ponomarenko, L., Mishchenko, A., Greenaway, M., …Eaves, L. (2013). Resonant tunnelling and negative differential conductance in graphene transistors. Nature Communications, 4, Article 1794. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms2817

The chemical stability of graphene and other free-standing two-dimensional crystals means that they can be stacked in different combinations to produce a new class of functional materials, designed for specific device applications. Here we report res... Read More about Resonant tunnelling and negative differential conductance in graphene transistors.

Spontaneous orbiting of two spheres levitated in a vibrated liquid (2013)
Journal Article
Pacheco Martinez, H., Liao, L., Hill, R., Swift, M. R., & Bowley, R. (2013). Spontaneous orbiting of two spheres levitated in a vibrated liquid. Physical Review Letters, 110(15), Article 154501. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.154501

In the absence of gravity, particles can form a suspension in a liquid irrespective of the difference in density between the solid and the liquid. If such a suspension is subjected to vibration there is relative motion between the particles and the f... Read More about Spontaneous orbiting of two spheres levitated in a vibrated liquid.

Regional structural differences across functionally parcellated Brodmann areas of human primary somatosensory cortex (2013)
Journal Article
Sánchez-Panchuelo, R., Besle, J., Mougin, O., Gowland, P., Bowtell, R., Schluppeck, D., & Francis, S. (2014). Regional structural differences across functionally parcellated Brodmann areas of human primary somatosensory cortex. NeuroImage, 93 Pt 2, 221-230. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2013.03.044

Ultra-high-field (UHF) MRI is ideally suited for structural and functional imaging of the brain. High-resolution structural MRI can be used to map the anatomical boundaries between functional domains of the brain by identifying changes related to the...

Observing fermionic statistics with photons in arbitrary processes (2013)
Journal Article
C. F. Matthews, J., Poulios, K., D. A. Meinecke, J., Politi, A., Peruzzo, A., Ismail, N., …L. O'Brien, J. (2013). Observing fermionic statistics with photons in arbitrary processes. Scientific Reports, 3, Article 1539. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep01539

In contrast to classical physics, quantum mechanics divides particles into two classes-bosons and fermions-whose exchange statistics dictate the dynamics of systems at a fundamental level. In two dimensions quasi-particles known as 'anyons' exhibit f... Read More about Observing fermionic statistics with photons in arbitrary processes.

On the rapid demise of Lyman-alpha emitters at z>7 due to the increasing incidence of optically thick absorption systems (2013)
Journal Article
S. Bolton, J., & G. Haehnelt, M. (2013). On the rapid demise of Lyman-alpha emitters at z>7 due to the increasing incidence of optically thick absorption systems. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 429(2), 1695–1704. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sts455

A variety of independent observational studies have now reported a significant decline in the fraction of Lyman-break galaxies which exhibit Ly-a emission over the redshift interval z=6-7. In combination with the strong damping wing extending redward...

Effects of various food ingredients on gall bladder emptying (2013)
Journal Article
Marciani, L., Cox, E., Hoad, C., Totman, J. J., Costigan, C., Singh, G., …Spiller, R. C. (2013). Effects of various food ingredients on gall bladder emptying. European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 67(11), https://doi.org/10.1038/ejcn.2013.168

Background/objectives: The emptying of the gall bladder in response to feeding is pivotal for the digestion of fat, but the role of various food ingredients in contracting the gall bladder postprandially is not well understood. We hypothesized that d... Read More about Effects of various food ingredients on gall bladder emptying.

Mechanical stiffening of porphyrin nanorings through supramolecular columnar stacking (2013)
Journal Article
Svatek, S. A., Perdigão, L. M., Stannard, A., Wieland, M. B., Kondratuk, D. V., Anderson, H. L., …Beton, P. H. (2013). Mechanical stiffening of porphyrin nanorings through supramolecular columnar stacking. Nano Letters, 13(7), https://doi.org/10.1021/nl4017557

Solvent-induced aggregates of nanoring cyclic polymers may be transferred by electrospray deposition to a surface where they adsorb as threedimensional columnar stacks. The observed stack height varies from single rings to four stacked rings with a l... Read More about Mechanical stiffening of porphyrin nanorings through supramolecular columnar stacking.
