Understanding how ice crystals form in clouds
How ice forms on the surfaces of mineral dust particles in the atmosphere has been revealed by a team from the LCN and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany. More than 90% of precipitation over land relies on the formation of ice crystals on airborne...
Modelling Photocatalytic Interfaces
Water is a crucial molecule to have a good understanding of with respect to adsorption on solid surfaces. This is mainly due to its ubiquity and therefore its pivotal role in many scientific processes including catalysis and corrosion protection. A study involving a...
Ultrafast control and detection of magnetic correlations in a 5d transition metal oxide
Understanding how the electronic and magnetic properties of materials are modified by the injection of charge carriers is of central importance across a range of fundamental and applied research. For example, the selective doping of impurity atoms into semiconductors...
