"Backpack Refugee Rights Advocating" in Greece – Access to Justice through Legal Empowerment

The Windsor Yearbook of Access to Justice, 2020
The moment asylum seekers arrive in Greece, they are often denied access to justice on different levels. At the same time international volunteer field advocates or Backpack Refugee Rights Advocates have the goal of assisting asylum seekers to master ...

Electrostatically Enhanced Buried Interface Binding of Self‐Assembled Monolayers for Efficient And Stable Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In p‐i‐n structure perovskite solar cells, conventional self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) such as [2‐(9H‐carbazol‐9‐yl)ethyl]phosphonic acid (2PACz) exhibit limited buried interfacial adhesion, compromising device stability. A donor‐acceptor SAM, 4‐(7‐(4‐(bis(4‐methoxyphenyl)amino‐2,5‐difluorophenyl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol‐4‐yl)benzoic acid (PAFTB ...

The Threat of Destitution as a Deterrent against Asylum Seeking in the European Union

Refuge, 2006
The problematization of asylum has detrimentally impacted on the provision of support for asylum seekers in host countries. The threat of destitution has become instrumental in restrictive asylum policies and is increasingly used as a deterrent against ...

Shapeshifting Nanocatalyst for CO2 Conversion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multi‐modal in situ characterization of Ag‐Cu nanoparticles during CO2 photoreduction sheds light on dynamic transformations occurring during reaction. The Cu(core)‐Ag(shell) nanoparticles present the Ag replacement by Cu atoms. Ag is trapped at the subsurface forming a Ag‐Cu‐O phase, and the nanoparticle spreads over the substrate.

Reimagining Asylum: Religious Narratives and the Moral Obligation to the Asylum Seeker

Refuge, 2013
The narrative that grounds the asylum policy of the United States portrays asylum seekers as passive objects of external forces. This narrative emerges from the complex interplay of exceptionality and victimization that characterizes the legal status and

Airbrushing: A Novel Method for Preparation of High‐Emissivity Black Coating for Infrared Measurements

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study showcases the airbrush method, a novel coating technique for the preparation of thin black paint coatings for infrared camera measurements. Using the method, coatings with an emissivity of 0.95, and as thin as 3 µm can be prepared. The method is affordable, non‐destructive, and can be prepared onto a wide range of substrates while ...

The trouble with ‘truth’. On the politics of life and death in the assessment of queer asylum seekers

Kvinder, Køn & Forskning, 2019
This article explores death and dying in the context of queer migration by reflecting on the ways in which queer asylum seekers are exposed to various forms and manifestations of death through the process of seeking asylum.

Size‐Dependent Contact Angles of Microscopic Droplets on Ultra‐Smooth Silanized Surfaces Probed by Atomic Force Microscopy

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Wetting is vital in many technologies, but remains hard to predict due to complex phase interactions. Young's law predicts macroscale wetting on ideal surfaces, while line tension theory is limited to nanoscale droplets. Here, using AFM, the scale gap is bridged by focusing on microscopic droplets and predicting their contact angle on real surfaces ...

Photonic Crystal Enhanced Microscopy on a 2D Photonic Crystal Surface

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This work demonstrates the design, fabrication, and the first‐time test of a 2D photonic crystal surface for photonic resonator absorption microscopy. The designed surface uniformly enhances electromagnetic near fields, achieving > 100% improved detecting uniformity for surface‐captured AuNPs from a blocking biosensor assay aimed for detecting SARS‐CoV‐
