Theory-guided development of homogeneous catalysts for the reduction of CO2 to formate, formaldehyde, and methanol derivatives

Matthew Wodrich, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Shubhajit Das, Hanna Hinrika Cramer

The stepwise catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to formic acid, formaldehyde, and methanol opens non-fossil pathways to important platform chemicals. The present article aims at identifying molecular control parameters to steer the selectivity to ...

Band alignment at the CaF2/Si(111) interface through advanced electronic structure calculations

Alfredo Pasquarello, Igor Reshetnyak, Thomas Bischoff

We determine the band alignment at the CaF2/Si(111) interface through various advanced electronic structure methods. This interface is experimentally well studied and serves as an ideal test case to examine the accuracy of theoretical schemes. We use both ...

Beryllium melting and erosion on the upper dump plates in JET during three ITER-like wall campaigns

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Pierre-Thomas Paul Brun, Alessandro Pau

Data on erosion and melting of beryllium upper limiter tiles, so-called dump plates (DP), are presented for all three campaigns in the JET tokamak with the ITER-like wall. High-resolution images of the upper wall of JET show clear signs of flash melting on ...

The effect of beryllium oxide on retention in JET ITER-like wall tiles

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Alessandro Pau, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

Preliminary results investigating the microstructure, bonding and effect of beryllium oxide formation on retention in the JET ITER-like wall beryllium tiles, are presented. The tiles have been investigated by several techniques: Scanning Electron Microscop ...

Identification of BeO and BeOxDy in melted zones of the JET Be limiter tiles: Raman study using comparison with laboratory samples

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Martinus Gijs, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

Beryllium oxide (BeO) and deuteroxide (BeOxDy) have been found on the melted zone of a beryllium tile extracted from the upper dump plate of JET-ILW (2011-2012 campaign). Results have been obtained using Raman microscopy, which is sensitive to both the che ...

Thermal Interface Material Enablement of Off-Board Two-Phase Cooling

John Richard Thome, Raffaele Luca Amalfi

Two-phase, refrigerant-based cooling offers significant promise for increasing heat densities and energy efficiencies of electronic components. One barrier to wide spread adoption of two-phase cooling solutions is preserving product features deemed essenti ...

Axisymmetric oscillations at L-H transitions in JET: M-mode

Nicola Vianello, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Bernhard Sieglin

L to H transition studies at JET have revealed an n = 0, m = 1 magnetic oscillation starting immediately at the L to H transition (called M-mode for brevity). While the magnetic oscillation is present a weak ELM-less H-mode regime is obtained, with a clear ...

Plasma cleaning of beryllium coated mirrors

Cleaning systems of metallic first mirrors are needed in more than 20 optical diagnostic systems from ITER to avoid reflectivity losses. Currently, plasma sputtering is considered as one of the most promising techniques to remove deposits coming from the m ...

Hydrogen plasma treatment for improved conductivity in amorphous aluminum doped zinc tin oxide thin films

Christophe Ballif, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Sylvain Nicolay, Laura Ding, Monica Morales Masis, Fabien Paul Jacques Dauzou

Improving the conductivity of earth-abundant transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) remains an important challenge that will facilitate the replacement of indium-based TCOs. Here, we show that a hydrogen (H-2)-plasma post-deposition treatment improves the co ...
