This paper describes the design of two- and three-stage cascaded oxide thermoelectric generators (TEGs) for high-temperature heat recovery using reported data to optimize energy conversion efficiency. We used the general intermetallic compounds Bi2(Se,Te)3 and (Bi,Sb)2Te3 for the low-temperature stages and oxides of T…

We have investigated the stacking of model bowlic mesogens, and the nematic and columnar liquid crystal phases they form upon cooling-down from an isotropic liquid. Starting from an attractive–repulsive interaction obtained by generalising the Gay–Berne pair potential to bowlic shapes, we have performed extensive off-…

Copper is generally assumed to be immune to corrosion by water itself. However, this is not supported by any scientific experimental evidence. Corrosion results from 15 years of exposure are presented here. A transition from O 2-consuming to H 2-evolving copper corrosion is concluded, which implies that copper can cor…

We recently found that the chromonic mesophase structure of an azo dye can be immobilized by a silica network to form a chromonic–silica nanohybrid. This work reports the first demonstration of the macroscopic photoalignment and photopatterning of this nanohybrid via surface-mediated orientational transfer from a phot…

Partial discharge (PD) activity results in the degradation of insulation systems in a range of high and medium voltage equipment and if left unchecked will eventually lead to disruptive failure of the equipment. Operating MV equipment with active partial discharge increases the risk of failure occurring at the time of…

Gold nanorods (GNRs) were encapsulated and dispersed into organic solvents by tetrabenzylthiol resorcinarene (TBTR) and by a poly(dithiocarbamate) derived from tetra- N-methyl(aminomethyl)resorcinarene (TMAR-DTC), formed by the in situ condensation of TMAR with carbon disulfide. The latter proved to be highly effectiv…

Nickel nanowires with a diameter of ∼200 nm were prepared using the electrodeposition technique. The length of the nanowires was varied from 0.7 to 5.6 μm, which corresponds to the change in the aspect ratio from 3.5 to 28. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction spectra confirm the formation…

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were chemically attached to an n-type silicon (100) substrate (n-Si) by exposing the surface to a nanotube-containing suspension for attachment times varying from 2 to 72 h. The SWNTs were imaged by atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealing a high density of vertically aligned SWNT…
