Is the doped MoS2 basal plane an efficient hydrogen evolution catalyst? Calculations of voltage-dependent activation energy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Transition metal dichalcogenides are cheap and earth-abundant candidates for the replacement of precious metals as catalyst materials. Experimental measurements of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), for example, have ... -
The Role of Boron in Low Copper Spheroidal Graphite Irons
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The effects of boron at concentrations ranging from 5 to 525 ppm in low copper spheroidal graphite iron (SGI) has been studied. At 130 to 140 ppm, no particular effect of boron was observed on the size distributions, number ... -
Strong bulk spin-orbit torques quantified in the van der Waals ferromagnet Fe3GeTe2
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The recent emergence of magnetic van der Waals materials allows for the investigation of current-induced magnetisation manipulation in two-dimensional materials. Uniquely, Fe3GeTe2 has a crystalline structure that allows ... -
Biomonitoring of rare earth elements in Southern Norway: Distribution, fractionation, and accumulation patterns in the marine bivalves Mytilus spp. and Tapes spp.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Growing extraction and usage of rare earth elements and yttrium (REY) for medical and industrial applications has resulted in increased discharges into the marine environment. Using Mytilus spp. Mussels and Tapes spp. clams ... -
Silica Fume Formation in Different Gas Atmospheres
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Silica fume is an important byproduct from the silicon production process, with mainly concrete and refractory applications. In this work, the effect of different combustion gas atmospheres on the properties of silica fume ... -

From Poly(glycerol itaconate) Gels to Novel Nonwoven Materials for Biomedical Applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Electrospinning is a process that has attracted significant interest in recent years. It provides the opportunity to produce nanofibers that mimic the extracellular matrix. As a result, it is possible to use the nonwovens ... -
Bulk and molecular-level composition of primary organic aerosol from wood, straw, cow dung, and plastic burning
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)During the past decades, the source apportionment of organic aerosol (OA) in ambient air has been improving substantially. The database of source retrieval model-resolved mass spectral profiles for different sources has ... -
Neural representation of goal direction in the monarch butterfly brain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Neural processing of a desired moving direction requires the continuous comparison between the current heading and the goal direction. While the neural basis underlying the current heading is well-studied, the coding of ... -
Plasma Treatment of PDMS for Microcontact Printing (μCP) of Lectins Decreases Silicone Transfer and Increases the Adhesion of Bladder Cancer Cells
