391. Thermal conductivity changes across a structural phase transition: The case of high-pressure silica
Date: 02-01-18 

…By means of first-principles calculations, we investigate the thermal properties of silica as it evolves, under hydrostatic compression, from a stishovite phase into a CaCl2-type structure. We compute the thermal…

392. Disequilibrium calorimetry for determination of ultrasonic power in sonochemistry
Date: 25-09-17 

…The two most characteristic properties of an ultrasonic wave are the frequency and the power. It is therefore important to determine the power in a given reactor. This can be done by calorimetry, i.e. by measuring the…

393. Preparation of cellulose nanocrystal-reinforced poly(lactic acid) nanocomposites through noncovalent modification with PLLA-based surfactants
Date: 30-06-17 

… with the surface of the CNCs. The morphological, structural, thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties of the nanocomposites were investigated. The different modes of interaction of the polar head of…

394. New LIST spin-off unlocks the secrets of the infinitely small
Date: 01-03-18 

In February 2018, Luxembourg Ion Optical Nano-Systems sàrl, the latest spin-off from LIST, spread its wings. It will harness an innovative world-first technology, developed at the LIST laboratories,

395. Rolf Tarrach Prize 2017 for Mads Weber, who conducted his PhD at LIST
Date: 12-07-17 

It is the first time this prestigious prize is awarded to a LIST PhD researcher. His work was supervised by MRT Director Prof. Kreisel. The award also praises the excellent research done at LIST.

In March 2018, LIST researcher Dr. Petru Lunca Popa received the renowned Scientist Medal 2018 by the International Association of Advanced Materials (IAAM) in Stockholm.

397. Huge gain in pyroelectric energy conversion through epitaxy for integrated self-powered nanodevices
Date: 11-09-17 

… integrated in metal-insulator-metal structure on silicon in order to compare their pyroelectric properties, both statically (under stabilized temperatures) and dynamically (when submitted to temperature…

398. Boric acid as an efficient agent for the control of polydopamine self-assembly and surface properties
Date: 18-09-17 

… able to stop the self-assembly of PDA in solution as well as on surfaces and to change the adhesive properties of the resulting PDA coatings. ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, vol. 10, no. 9, pp…
