3D Printed Sugar-Sensing Hydrogels
(2020)The ability of boronic acids to reversibly bind diols, such as sugars, has been widely studied in recent years. In solution, through the incorporation of additional fluorophores, this boronic acid-sugar interaction can be ... -
Collective capacitive and memristive responses in random nanowire networks: Emergence of critical connectivity pathways
(2018)Random nanowire networks (NWNs) are promising synthetic architectures for non-volatile memory devices and hardware-based neuromorphic applications due to their history-dependent re- sponses, recurrent connectivity, and ... -
Direct laser writing of vapour-responsive photonic arrays
(2021)Using direct laser writing, arrays of optically responsive ionogel structures were fabricated. To demonstrate their responsive nature, visible colour changes in the presence of different solvent vapours were investigated. ... -
"Effective Electrode Length Enhances Electrical Activation of Nanowire Networks: Experiment and Simulation"
(2014)Networks comprised of randomly oriented overlapping nanowires offer the possibility of simple fabrication on a variety of substrates, in contrast with the precise placement required for devices with single or aligned ... -
Microwave-assisted efficient thiolate-catalysed homo- and crossed intermolecular Tishchenko reactions
(2011)Recently, the first efficient intermolecular crossed Tishchenko reactions were reported. The utility of these processes is curtailed by long reaction times of up to 4 days (at reflux). Herein we report that these reactions ... -
Nonlinear ion drift-diffusion memristance description of TiO2 RRAM devices
(2020)The nature and direction of the hysteresis in memristive devices is critical to device operation and performance and the ability to realise their potential as neuromorphic applications. TiO2 is a prototypical memristive ... -
"Poisson's ratio of individual metal nanowires"
(2014)The measurement of Poisson's ratio of nanomaterials is extremely challenging. Here we report a lateral atomic force microscope experimental method to electromechanically measure the Poisson's ratio and gauge factor of ... -
"Programmability of nanowire networks"
(2014)Electrical connectivity in networks of nanoscale junctions must be better understood if nanowire devices are to be scaled up from single wires to functional material systems. We show that the natural connectivity behaviour ... -
"Quantitative study of the photothermal properties of metallic nanowire networks"
(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, ... -
"Resistance of Single Ag Nanowire Junctions and Their Role in the Conductivity of Nanowire Networks"
(2015)Networks of silver nanowires appear set to replace expensive indium tin oxide as the transparent conducting electrode material in next generation devices. The success of this approach depends on optimising the material ... -
Responsive spiral photonic structures for visible vapor sensing, pattern transformation and encryption
(2023)Two photon polymerisation using direct laser writing is a burgeoning field of research, with recent focus being placed on bringing added value to microstructures, by incorporating soft, responsive polymers. Moving to the ... -
"A single nanoscale junction with programmable multilevel memory"
(2014)Nanoscale devices that are sensitive to measurement history enable memory applications, and memristors are currently under intense investigation for robustness and functionality. Here we de-scribe the fabrication and ... -
Stamping of Flexible, Coplanar Micro-Supercapacitors Using MXene Inks
(2018)The fast growth of portable smart electronics and internet of things have greatly stimulated the demand for miniaturized energy storage devices. Micro‐supercapacitors (MSCs), which can provide high power density and a long ... -
Transparent, Flexible Silicon Nanostructured Wire Networks with Seamless Junctions for High-Performance Photodetector Applications
(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 ... -
