The recent issue of Journal ChemNanoMat features a cover art made by Jan. The illustration corresponds to the recent paper published in this journal, a result of a collaboration of N&N Group and Smart Nano-Bio-Devices group at Bioengineering Institute of Catalonia (IBEC).
Congratulations to Martí Gich, tenured researcher at the N&N group, and the rest of the authors for the recently published paper: Electric and Mechanical Switching of Ferroelectric and Resistive States in Semiconducting BaTiO3–δ Films on Silicon. Moreover, the paper was on the cover of the journal Small (Volume 13, Issue 39, October 18, 2017).
Abstract:
In article number 1701614, Andrés Gómez, Adrián Carretero-Genevrier, and co-workers report a novel approach to integrate epitaxial nanostructured n-type semiconducting BaTiO3−δ films on silicon by combining molecular beam epitaxy and a water-based chemical method. This growth strategy results into epitaxial BaTiO3−δ/La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/SrTiO3/Si columnar nanostructures that enhance the flexoelectric response of the system and enables the control of the ferroelectric polarization and local conductivity (resistive switching) of this functional oxide upon applying a mechanical load.
The N&N group participates in the @NextGEM_eu project, for which we prepared this video explaining how we work with c.elegans. 🪱
👉 Dr. @PolAlonso1 explains how we use these nematodes and why they are useful for assessing biological effects.
