In this paper, several strategies for biogas reforming and their ensuing effects on solid-oxide-fuel-cell performance are explored. Synthesized biogas (65% CH4 + 35% CO2) fuel streams are reformed over a rhodium catalyst supported on a porous alumina-foam support. Reforming approaches include steam reforming and catal…

We investigate ballistic thermoelectric transport in double-bend nanowires. The geometric confinement induces quantum interference effect, which results in large Seebeck coefficient. The Seebeck coefficient (both the sign and the amplitude) is tunable by changing the structural parameters of the double-bend nanowires.…

We study theoretically the effect of spin-orbit coupling and sublattice asymmetry in graphene on the spin polarization of photoelectrons. We show that sublattice asymmetry in graphene not only opens a gap in the band structure, but in the case of finite spin-orbit interaction it also gives rise to an out-of-plane spin…
