The measurements on radioactive actinide isotopes (curium-248) were performed using very small sample quantities (micrograms) to minimize the sample activity. Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of curium oxide at the Cm $5d$ edge were measured for the first time. RIXS data are compared with theoretical…

Nonlinear composite dielectric materials can be formed through the inclusion of appropriate fillers in polymers. Depending on the type of filler used, the composite material can then possess either an electrical field-dependent conductivity (FDC) or an electrical field-dependent permittivity (FDP). These nonlinear pro…

Porous 3D polymer scaffolds prepared by TIPS from PLGA (53:47) and PS are intrinsically hydrophobic which prohibits the wetting of such porous media by water. This limits the application of these materials for the fabrication of scaffolds as supports for cell adhesion/spreading. Here we demonstrate that the interior s…
