Nanoporous carbon refers to a broad class of materials characterized by nanometer-size pores, densities lower than water, large specific surface areas, and high porosities. These materials find applications in nanocatalysis and gas adsorption, among others. The porosity structure, that determines the properties and fu…

CuO is an earth‐abundant, nontoxic, and low band‐gap material; hence it is an attractive candidate for application in solar cells. In this paper, a synthesis of CuO nanocrystals by a facile alcohothermal route is reported. The nanocrystals are dispersible in a solvent mixture of methanol and chloroform, thus enabling…

Abstract Self‐healing materials with dual interpenetrating microvascular networks enable two‐part healing chemistries and repeated healing of damage in a localized region. However, due to slow healing kinetics, multiple days are required between damage events to recover mechanical performance under ambient conditions.…

In order to assess the potential of porous Si as thermoelectric material we have performed thermal conductivity measurements in dependence of both temperature and average structure size. Investigations on samples with average structure sizes between 7 nm and 100 nm reveal a pronounced reduction in thermal conductivity…

NaMgH3 has been considered as a potential hydrogen storage material and is an intermediary phase in a number of complex-hydride destabilization reactions. Using careful pressure−composition−isotherm measurements, the hydrogen equilibrium plateau was shown to be flat with negligible hysteresis. The enthalpy of desorpti…
