Graphene nanoribbons with hBN passivated edges grown by high-temperature molecular beam epitaxy (2023)
Journal Article
Bradford, J., Cheng, T. S., James, T. S., Khlobystov, A. N., Mellor, C. J., Watanabe, K., …Beton, P. H. (2023). Graphene nanoribbons with hBN passivated edges grown by high-temperature molecular beam epitaxy. 2D Materials, 10(3), Article 035035. https://doi.org/10.1088/2053-1583/acdefc

Integration of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) in lateral heterostructures has provided a route to broadly engineer the material properties by quantum confinement of electrons or introduction of novel electronic and magnetic states at the...

Unravelling synergistic effects in bi-metallic catalysts: deceleration of palladium–gold nanoparticle coarsening in the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde (2023)
Journal Article
Pinto, J., Weilhard, A., Norman, L. T., Lodge, R. W., Rogers, D. M., Gual, A., …Alves Fernandes, J. (2023). Unravelling synergistic effects in bi-metallic catalysts: deceleration of palladium–gold nanoparticle coarsening in the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde. Catalysis Science and Technology, https://doi.org/10.1039/d3cy00289f

In this work, we demonstrate that the synergistic effect of PdAu nanoparticles (NPs) in hydrogenation reactions is not only related to high activity but also to their stability when compared to Pd mono-metallic NPs. To demonstrate this, a series of m...

Subnanometer-Wide Indium Selenide Nanoribbons (2023)
Journal Article
Cull, W. J., Skowron, S. T., Hayter, R., Stoppiello, C. T., Rance, G. A., Biskupek, J., …Khlobystov, A. N. (2023). Subnanometer-Wide Indium Selenide Nanoribbons. ACS Nano, 17(6), 6062-6072. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsnano.3c00670

Indium selenides (InxSey) have been shown to retain several desirable properties, such as ferroelectricity, tunable photoluminescence through temperature-controlled phase changes, and high electron mobility when confined to two dimensions (2D). In th... Read More about Subnanometer-Wide Indium Selenide Nanoribbons.
