• Transparent, Flexible Silicon Nanostructured Wire Networks with Seamless Junctions for High-Performance Photodetector Applications 

  Boland, John; Mc Closkey, David; Nayayana, Prabhava (2018)

  Optically transparent photodetectors are crucial in next-generation optoelectronic applications including smart windows and transparent image sensors. Designing photodetectors with high transparency, photoresponsivity, and ...
• Material characterisation of nanowires with intrinsic stress 

  Boland, John (2017)

  When fabricating nanowires in a doubly-clamped beam configuration it is possible for a residual axial stress to be generated. Here, we show that material characterisation of metal and semiconductor nanowires subjected ...
• "Quantitative study of the photothermal properties of metallic nanowire networks" 

  Boland, John (2015)

  In this article, we present a comprehensive investigation of the photothermal properties of plasmonic nanowire networks. We measure the local steady-state temperature increase, heat source density, and absorption in Ag, ...

  Effective medium theory for the conductivity of disordered metallic nanowire networks 

  Ferreira, Mauro; Boland, John (2016)

  Motivated by numerous technological applications, there is current interest in the study of the conductive properties of networks made of randomly dispersed nanowires. The sheet resistance of such networks is normally ...

  Solvent-Engineered Stress in Nanoscale Materials? 

  Boland, John (2018)

  Nanoscale materials are frequently coated with surface stabilisation layers during growth that prevent flocculation in solution and facilitate processing technologies such ink-jet device printing. Here, we show that ...
