• openAccess   Bridging Silicon Nanoparticles and Thermoelectrics: Phenylacetylene Functionalization 

      Ashby, Shane P.; Thomas, Jason A.; García-Cañadas, Jorge; Min, Gao; Corps, Jack; Powel, Anthony W.; Xu, Hualong; Shen, Wei; Chao, Yimin Royal Society of Chemistry (2014-06-26)
      Silicon is a promising alternative to current thermoelectric materials (Bi2Te3). Silicon nanoparticle based materials show especially low thermal conductivities due to their high number of interfaces, which increases the ...
    • openAccess   Field enhanced bulk conductivity of acceptor-doped BaTi1−xCaxO3−x ceramics 

      Masó, Nahum; Prades Tena, Marta; Beltrán Mir, Héctor; Cordoncillo, Eloisa; Sinclair, Derek C.; West, Anthony R. American Institute of Physics (2010)
      The electrical properties of Ca-doped BaTiO3 are very different when Ca substitutes onto Ba or Ti sites. The p-type semiconductivity of Ti-substituted ceramics increases reversibly by one to two orders of magnitude under ...
    • closedAccess   Geostatistical methods to identify and map spatial variations of soil salinity 

      Juan, Pablo; Mateu, Jorge; Jordán Vidal, Manuel Miguel; Mataix-Solera, Jorge; Meléndez-Pastor, I.; Navarro Pedreño, José Elsevier (2011-01)
      The problem of estimating and predicting spatial distribution of a spatial stochastic process, observed at irregular locations in space, is considered in this paper. Environmental variables usually show spatial dependencies ...
    • openAccess   Tailoring the electrical conductivity of Poly(vinylidene fluoride) by blending with poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) Polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and ionic liquids 

      Amaro Martins, Luis; Teruel Biosca, Laura; Sabater i Serra, Roser; Andrio, Andreu; Gómez-Tejedor, José Antonio; Correia, Daniela M.; Fernandes, Liliana; Costa, Carlos M.; lanceros-mendez, senentxu; Gomez Ribelles, Jose Luis; Tort-Ausina, Isabel Elsevier (2024)
      In order to tailor dielectric response and electrical conductivity, novel polymer blends based on poly(vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and different fillers composed by poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) ...
