Novel TEM sample preparation using XeF2 selective Etching (2014)
Journal Article
Ambrosini, S. F., Bowen, L., Mendis, B., Cirlin, G., Bouravleuv, A., Gallant, A., …Zeze, D. (2014). Novel TEM sample preparation using XeF2 selective Etching. MRS proceedings, 1659, 149-153. https://doi.org/10.1557/opl.2014.209

We present a new approach to prepare Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) nanowire (NW) samples that addresses the core drawbacks of conventional techniques, which are based on mechanical polishing. The proposed method is time efficient and uses Xe... Read More about Novel TEM sample preparation using XeF2 selective Etching.

Challenges and prospects for developing CdS/CdTe substrate solar cells on Mo foils (2014)
Journal Article
Williams, B., Major, J., Bowen, L., Phillips, L., Zoppi, G., Forbes, I., & Durose, K. (2014). Challenges and prospects for developing CdS/CdTe substrate solar cells on Mo foils. Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, 124, 31-38. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solmat.2014.01.017

ITO/ZnO/CdS/CdTe/Mo solar cells have been grown in the substrate configuration by a combination of close-space sublimation and RF sputtering. A peak efficiency of 8.01% was achieved. A two stage CdCl2 annealing process was developed, with the first s... Read More about Challenges and prospects for developing CdS/CdTe substrate solar cells on Mo foils.

Focused ion beam and field-emission microscopy of metallic filaments in memory devices based on thin films of an ambipolar organic compound consisting of oxadiazole, carbazole and fluorene units (2013)
Journal Article
Pearson, C., Bowen, L., Lee, M., Fisher, A., Linton, K., Bryce, M., & Petty, M. (2013). Focused ion beam and field-emission microscopy of metallic filaments in memory devices based on thin films of an ambipolar organic compound consisting of oxadiazole, carbazole and fluorene units. Applied Physics Letters, 102(21), https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4808026

We report on the mechanism of operation of organic thin film resistive memory architectures based on an ambipolar compound consisting of oxadiazole, carbazole, and fluorene units. Cross-sections of the devices have been imaged by electron microscopy...

The structure of volcanic cristobalite in relation to its toxicity; relevance for the variable crystalline silica hazard (2012)
Journal Article
Horwell, C., Williamson, B., Donaldson, K., Le Blond, J., Damby, D., & Bowen, L. (2012). The structure of volcanic cristobalite in relation to its toxicity; relevance for the variable crystalline silica hazard. Particle and Fibre Toxicology, 9, Article 44. https://doi.org/10.1186/1743-8977-9-44

Background: Respirable crystalline silica (RCS) continues to pose a risk to human health worldwide. Its variable toxicity depends on inherent characteristics and external factors which influence surface chemistry. Significant population exposure to R...
