Bio‐Inspired Synthesis of Macroporous Single Crystal Particles as Scattering Agents

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A general strategy is presented that delivers unique, single‐crystal microparticles that combine submicron macroporosity and uniform particle shapes. A bioinspired approach is used to occlude three distinct types of additives – polystyrene microspheres, polymer vesicles and amino acids – within calcite single crystals, and subsequent thermal annealing ...

Insulation materials

open access: yes, 2019
Insulation is a key component of green building design. A well-insulated home should keep your space warm in the winter and cool in the summer, and this in turn cuts down carbon emissions linked to global climate change.

Sound insulation properties of a spherical structure of subwavelength size

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2019
Because of the limited sound insulation provided by a single material, it is common to use multiple layers of materials to improve the effects of sound insulation, but multiple materials increase the size of the model.
