Reactive Nanoparticle Composed Bilayers: An Alternate Route Toward the Production of Pt/Al Nanofoils

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Spark ablation‐assisted gas phase electrodeposition is an alternate route toward Pt/Al self‐propagation reactive system synthesis. Pt film morphology‐dependent reaction kinetics is a significant advantage. Low spark power and gas flow rate produce porous films and slow speeds, while high power and flow rate give three orders of magnitude faster ...

Normalizing the Shamed Self: Stigma, Neutralization and “Narrative Credibility” in Interviews on White‐Collar Transgression

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this article, I analyze my interviews with Mark (pseudonym), a social scientist who committed major academic fraud in over 50 top‐tier journal articles in the first decade of this century. I explain how stigma played a central role in how Mark and I shaped our interaction. I focus on how Mark, a former Professor and Dean with a distinguished career,

Accounting for Friendlessness: Stigma and the Quest for an Honorable Self

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
How do people who identify as friendless make sense of their condition in a moment when friendship is extolled for the support and satisfaction it offers? This article draws on interviews with 21 adults in an Atlantic Canadian city. We argue that our interviewees were rarely at ease with their friendlessness and were at pains to recover an honorable ...
