• Phonon thermal transport in copper: the effect of size, crystal orientation and grain boundaries 

      Sæther, Sandra; Merete Falck, Erichsen; Xiao, Senbo; Zhang, Zhiliang; Lervik, Anders; He, Jianying (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      In electronic devices at the micro- and nanoscale, thermal management is vital. At such small sizes, crystal orientation, grain boundaries, and even the size itself can play an important role in the thermal transport and ...
    • Surface Wrinkling with Memory for Programming Adhesion and Wettability 

      Wang, Feng; Xiao, Senbo; Luo, Sihai; Fu, Yuequn; Skallerud, Bjørn Helge; Kristiansen, Helge; cui, mengkui; zhong, chao; Liu, Siqi; Zhuo, Yizhi; He, Jianying; Zhang, Zhiliang (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Modulating surface wrinkling is important for a variety of engineering applications. It has been known for more than two decades that the wavelength of surface wrinkles occurring in a metal film–soft polymer system scales ...
    • Thickness Mediated Morphology Evolution in Sub-10-nm Metal Film Deposition: Implications for Non-destructive Testing 

      Wang, Feng; Fu, Yuequn; Xiao, Senbo; Skallerud, Bjørn Helge; Liu, Siqi; Luo, Sihai; Kristiansen, Helge; He, Jianying; Zhang, Zhiliang (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Thickness in sub-10-nm metal film deposition is a seldomly explored parameter that can influence not only the film mechanical properties but also the surface functional characteristics. In this study, we designed bilayer ...
    • Ultra-robust icephobic coatings with high toughness, strong substrate adhesion and self-healing capability 

      Zhuo, Yizhi; Håkonsen, Verner; Liu, Siqi; Li, Tong; Wang, Feng; Luo, Sihai; Xiao, Senbo; He, Jianying; Zhang, Zhiliang (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Enabling surfaces with passive anti-icing properties is an emerging, facile, economical, and energy-saving strategy to mitigate the harm caused by ice accretion. However, the combination of icephobicity and robustness still ...
