Explosive fragmentation of Prince Rupert’s drops leads to well-defined fragment sizes

Nature Communications, 2021
Fragmentation of breaking glass as a brittle solid is a problem of equal practical and theoretical importance. Kooij et al. demonstrate that the fragment size distribution can surprisingly be both, either power-law or exponential, depending on how a ...

Bi2O3/BiVO4@Graphene Oxide van der Waals Heterostructures with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity toward Oxygen Generation [PDF]

, 2021
The van der Waals (vdW) integration enables to create heterostructures with intimate contact and bring new opportunities. However, it is not confined to layered materials but can also be generally extended to 3D materials.

Drop size measurement techniques for sprays: Comparison of image analysis, phase Doppler particle analysis, and laser diffraction

AIP Advances, 2021
Four different methods for measuring droplet size distributions are evaluated: the Image Analysis VisiSizer technique, a stroboscopic imaging method developed in-house, phase Doppler particle analysis (PDPA), and laser diffraction (Malvern Spraytec).

Atomically thin p-n junctions with van der Waals heterointerfaces. [PDF]

Nature Nanotechnology, 2014
Semiconductor p-n junctions are essential building blocks for electronic and optoelectronic devices. In conventional p-n junctions, regions depleted of free charge carriers form on either side of the junction, generating built-in potentials associated ...
