Chi-Ming Yim, working as a postdoc in the LCN group of Geoff Thornton, has discovered an intriguing phenomenon in adsorption properties of nanoparticles. Low temperature scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) experiments, carried out in the LCN, have allowed direct...
Researchers at UCL in a collaboration study with Laurent Joly, from the University of Lyon, have investigated the friction properties of liquid water at the interface with graphene and with an hexagonal boron nitride sheet, using ab initio molecular dynamics for the...
