Recent Applications of the Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing (SSA) Thermal Fractionation Technique
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022-09-28)Successive Self-nucleation and Annealing (SSA) is a thermal fractionation technique that is performed by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The combination of non-isothermal and isothermal steps applied during SSA ... -
Recommendations for the selection of in situ measurement techniques for radiological characterization in nuclear/radiological installations under decommissioning and dismantling processes
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021-04-30)[EN] In this paper, in-situ radiological characterisation by means of non-destructive techniques is studied and analysed in the context of the different constrained environments (identified as radioactivity, materials, ... -
Reconciling global-model estimates and country reporting of anthropogenic forest CO 2 sinks
(Springer, 2018)Achieving the long-term temperature goal of the Paris Agreement requires forest-based mitigation. Collective progress towards this goal will be assessed by the Paris Agreement s Global stocktake. At present, there is a ... -
Reduced Carbon Monoxide Saturation Coverage on Vicinal Palladium Surfaces: the Importance of the Adsorption Site
(American Chemical Society, 2021-10-07)[EN]Steps at metal surfaces may influence energetics and kinetics of catalytic reactions in unexpected ways. Here, we report a significant reduction of the CO saturation coverage in Pd vicinal surfaces, which in turn is ... -
Reducing Passive Drug Diffusion from Electrophoretic DrugDelivery Devices through Co-Ion Engineering
(Wiley, 2021-06)Implantable electrophoretic drug delivery devices have shown promise for applications ranging from treating pathologies such as epilepsy and cancer to regulating plant physiology. Upon applying a voltage, the devices ... -
Reduction of the Lattice Thermal Conductivity of Polymer Semiconductors by Molecular Doping
(American Chemical Society, 2020-09-11)Here we show that molecular doping of polymer thermoelectrics increases the electrical conductivity while reducing the thermal conductivity. A high-throughput methodology based on annealing and doping gradients within ... -
Regional Soil Nutrient Balances for Cropland in 1920s Catalonia, Spain
