Thin films of epitaxial SrTiO3 grown on silicon exhibit compressive in-plane strain that may stabilize ferroelectricity in this normally non-ferroelectric material. We investigate this possibility by using an ultra-high vacuum atomic force microscope to measure the local force response of coherently strained SrTiO3 fi…

In-use vehicles which are high emitters (HEVs) make a large contribution to the emissions inventory. It is not known, however, whether HEVs share common emissions characteristics, and particularly the effect of ethanol blends. We study this by first examining laboratory measurements of exhaust and evaporative emission…
