Ligand conformation at semiconductor nanoparticle surfaces for high-efficienc...
The efficiency of silicon solar cells is limited to 29%. One possible way of breaking this limit uses a process called singlet fission, converting a high energy photon into two... -
Competitive interactions in polymer-particle-surfactant blends
Many formulations comprise distinct chemical species that exhibit antagonistic or synergistic interactions that result in unpredictable behaviour. Previous work from our group... -
Zwitterion doped PEDOT:PSS bulk morphology modification as a function of dopi...
We propose to use SANS to study the intra-particle information (size, shape, interactions) of pristine and zwitterion doped PEDOT:PSS in order to have a better understanding of... -
Simultaneous SANS and modulated SESANS studies of cross-linking in cellulose ...
Recently we have trialled the new techniques enabled on Larmor which permit simultaneous measurements of nanoscale and macroscale structure. These experiments gave new insights... -
Determination of high shear superstructures in poly (ethylene oxide)/silica d...
High shear in paints and emulsion is common during both processing and application. Spray coating, films rolling and mixing all contaain high shear states. We are interested in... -
Controlling the morphology of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films using mixtures ...
Through a combination of small angle neutron scattering, ion-beam analysis and ellipsometry we have recently demonstrated that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the... -
Intermediate Structures formed during the aggregation of the Amyloid beta Pep...
The aggregation of the Amyloid beta (Abeta) peptide is implicated in the progression of Alzheimer's disease, the treatment of which is a major current global healthcare... -
Probing bulk heterojunction (BHJ) thin films with graded morphologies using SANS
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar...
