Chemically‐Linked Heterostructures of Palladium Nanosheets and 2H‐MoS2

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The photoresponse of MoS2 devices is extended to the near‐infrared region (up to 1700 nm) through chemical connection to Pd nanosheets (PdNS). A maleimide is used for covalent connection to MoS2, and a phenyl bromide moiety for linkage to the PdNS. In the absence of the chemical linker, van der Waals heterostructures show poorer enhancement of the ...

THE AESTHETICS OF URBAN METABOLISM: Landscape, Design and the Politics of In/Visibility

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, we chart the evolving aesthetic contours of urban metabolism across London, focusing on the River Lea and Thamesmead to the north and south of the River Thames, respectively. We begin in the nineteenth century, when these two sites formed critical nodes within a new sewerage system that relegated the city’s circulatory flows ...

Complete convergence theorem for a two level contact process

open access: yes, 2019
We study a two-level contact process. We think of fleas living on a species of animals. The animals are a supercritical contact process in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The contact process acts as the random environment for the fleas.

THE CONTESTED CITY OF VENICE: Caring for Commodified Common Infrastructures in a Touristified Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this essay I reveal contested common infrastructures in the interplay between vanishing public infrastructures in Venice and lack of care by governmental actors in a city with a shrinking number of inhabitants. I examine care and commodified public infrastructures in heritage cities facing mass tourism and climate change effects by zooming ...

AN URBAN MARKETPLACE UNDER PRESSURE: The Steady Gentrification Process of Porta Palazzo (Turin) Through the Eyes of Market Sellers and Policy Makers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Marketplaces, crucial sites for low‐income populations as sources of affordable goods and social interaction, are at a critical juncture. They are experiencing decline due to the rise of shopping centres and neglect by public authorities, while at the same time being rediscovered as tourist attractions, sources of profit and tools for urban ...

Phylogenetic and Functional Originality Shape Species Positions in Flea–Mammal Networks Across Biogeographic Realms

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The relationship between the position of a flea species in the networks and its functional originality was found to be consistently positive in all realms, independently of which originality index was used. ABSTRACT We investigated the relationships between a species’ network position (measured as the combined normalized degree, species strength, and ...
