Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity of Hafnium Nanostructures Fabricated by Physical Vapor Deposition Through a Colloidal Mask

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
We generate hafnium nanostructures by first depositing polystyrene particles of varying diameter followed by physical vapour deposition of hafnium thin films. The resultant structure shows a kill‐on‐contact effect against both Gram‐negative Escherichia coli and Gram‐positive Staphylococcus aureus.

Regenerative Rathlin - field operations. Future Island-island

Rural communities like Rathlin Island are often excluded from design-led regeneration processes. Simultaneously, early-career designers lack direct experience with remote, place-based sustainability challenges. This initiative addressed both by embedding co-design into a real-world context of ecological, cultural, and infrastructural importance.
