    • Dry shear aligning: a simple and versatile method to smooth and align the surfaces of carbon nanotube thin films 

      Tune, Daniel David; Stolz, B W; Pfohl, M; Flavel, B S (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-01-13)
      We show that the application of lateral shear force on a randomly oriented thin film of carbon nanotubes, in the dry state, causes significant reordering of the nanotubes at the film surface. This new technique of dry shear ...

    • SWCNT photocathodes sensitised with InP/ZnS core–shell nanocrystals 

      Macdonald, Thomas J; Tune, Daniel David; Dewi, Melissa R; Bear, Joseph C; McNaughter, Paul D; Mayes, Andrew G; Skinner, William M; Parkin, Ivan P; Shapter, Joseph George; Nann, Thomas (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-01-25)
      Increasing the light harvesting efficiency of photocathodes is an integral part of optimising the future efficiencies of solar technologies. In contrast to the more extensively studied photoanode systems, current ...
