Quasi‐Antipolar Nanoclusters Driven Superior Energy Storage in High‐Entropy Relaxor Ferroelectrics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Quasi‐antipolar nanoclusters are engineered in lead‐free NaNbO3‐based high‐entropy relaxors that weaken polar nanoregion coupling and induce distinct ferroelectric transition under high fields to enable desirable polarization response. This breakthrough system achieves ultrahigh recoverable‐energy‐density (≈18.3 J cm−3), efficiency (≈91.5%), and ...

Displacement and Transition Risks [PDF]
, 2018 The refugee journey from a place of danger to a place of safety involves a series of transitions. At each stage of the displacement cycle individuals become defined by legal-bureaucratic and descriptive labels that may include an ‘internally displaced ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Our work reports that Li⁺ doping in CuInP2S₆ induces coexistence of high‐ and low‐polarization states, which fosters a rich spectrum of topological polar textures, such as bubbles and labyrinth domains. An unconventional flexoelectric effect is also discovered, where strain gradients can mechanically manipulate these polarization states and their ...

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Surface engineering of gate dielectrics with fluorinated self–assembled monolayers significantly improves the performance of organic field–effect transistors. In this study, Al2O3 functionalized with fluorinated phosphonic acids reduces contact resistance and hysteresis while achieving near‐zero threshold voltages, offering an alternative to ...

How local faith communities can aid asylum seekers
Forced Migration Review, 2014 Local faith communities are able to offer assistance to asylum seekers in ways that faith-based organisations, constrained by eligibility criteria, are not.

L’antimonde de la demande d’asile
Géographie et Cultures, 2006 The asylum right symbolizes the respect of human rights, it protects persecuted individuals. This article questions the asylum seek as a procedural shell which, would be snatched by the antiworld, indispensable double of the world.

Moving beyond the ‘language problem': developing an understanding of the intersections of health, language and immigration status in interpreter-mediated health encounters [PDF]
, 2019 Health systems internationally are dealing with greater diversity in patient populations. However the focus on ‘the language problem’ has meant little attention is paid to diversity within and between migrant populations; and how interpreted ...

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Resettled refugee families face elevated mental health risks, compounded by structural and cultural barriers. The Family Strengthening Intervention for Resettlement (FSIR), co‐developed with resettled refugee communities, aims to improve family functioning and child mental health.

SLOW, SUBJECTIVE AND STRESSFUL: A GUIDE TO CANADA’S ASYLUM SYSTEM
The School of Public Policy Publications, 2019 Canadians often assume that seeking asylum in Canada is a quick and easy route to permanent residency and citizenship. Nothing could be further from the truth.

BMC Family Practice, 2006 Background Somatisation is particularly challenging in multicultural contexts where patients and physicians often differ in terms of their illness-related beliefs and practices and health care expectations. This paper reports on a exploratory study aimed
