• Collembola cuticles and the three-phase line tension 

      Gundersen, Håkon A Holm; Leinaas, Hans Petter; Thaulow, Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      The cuticles of most springtails (Collembola) are superhydrophobic, but the mechanism has not been described in detail. Previous studies have suggested that overhanging surface structures play an important role, but such ...
    • Nanoscale friction and wear of a polymer coated with graphene 

      Vacher, Robin Sam; de Wijn, Astrid S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Friction and wear of polymers at the nanoscale is a challenging problem due to the complex viscoelastic properties and structure. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate how a graphene sheet on top of the ...
    • Self-standing heterostructured NiCx-NiFe-NC/biochar as a highly efficient cathode for lithium–oxygen batteries 

      Jing, Shengyu; Gong, Xu; Ji, Shan; Jia, Linhui; Pollet, Bruno; Yan, Sheng; Liang, Huagen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Lithium–oxygen batteries have attracted research attention due to their low cost and high theoretical capacity. Developing inexpensive and highly efficient cathode materials without using noble metal-based catalysts is ...
