Really enjoyable collaboration with fascinating results. I❤️PNRs

Raj Pandya@raj_pandya93

Great to see this out in @Nature today! We show that phosphorene nanoribbons can display both magnetic and semiconducting properties at room temperature. Amazing effort with @arjun_ashoka @Chrishowz @ChemistClancy @Naitik_Panjwani nature.com/articles/s4158…

See more nanoribbon fun - ngl I really like nanoribbons especially with a such great team of collaborators/friends

UCL News@uclnews

In 2019, UCL researchers discovered phosphorus nanoribbons, predicted to transform electronics – now a team led by @ChemistClancy @UCLChemistry & @Chrishowz @uclmaps have alloyed this material with arsenic, adding conductivity to its remarkable properties ucl.ac.uk/news/2023/sep/…

Ifan Stephens@IfanStephens·18 Ağu

You may call me Professor Stephens…. On a journey that.. started at @ImpMaterials , then on to @Cambridge_Uni, @DTUtweet, @MITMechE and then back full circle to Imperial, I finally made it to full professor.

Please retweet! I am recruiting three PDRAs (2 projects) at @UCLChemistry. Selected by @ERC_Research, @EPSRC and Funded by @UKRI_News @EPSRC. Come to work with amazing researchers in the department and project partners, and make safer Zn-ion batteries! Closing date 25/July.

@MariosHadjimic1 @theofficetv @DwightSchrute_ Nice one! Huge congrats!

I got an offer for an Assistant Professor position (incredibly happy, I'll post more news soon!) and this running joke from @theofficetv was the first thing to pop to mind. Now to check the contracts to make sure it's not an 'Assistant to the Professor' role @DwightSchrute_

Start of what promises to be a super fun collaboration on Ca-ion batteries with @reckless_ions #propercoverart

Yang Xu@reckless_ions

Absolutely my favorite cover! Hand drawn by my brilliant friend Qianchen Li. Thank Materials Advances @RoySocChem for selecting our artwork. Collaboration between @UCLChemistry, @Chrishowz @ucl Physics and Min Zhou at USTC. #sustainable #EnergyStorage pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

The first Ca paper (review) of the group is online in Materials Advances @RoySocChem. Thank @Chrishowz and Min Zhou (USTC) for the great input. Project funded by @LeverhulmeTrust, Ca-ion #battery is a tricky one. A bumpy start but things are looking up! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Phosphorene nanoribbons have unique and fascinating magnetic properties! see our preprint. Thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding collaboration with crack team assembled by @raj_pandya93 and @arjun_ashoka. I♥️PNRs.

Raj Pandya@raj_pandya93

Great to see this up! We find phosphorene nanoribbons have unusual magnetic properties (magnetic alignment and films with large internal fields) + optically accessible edge states! Huge effort with @arjun_ashoka @Chrishowz @ChemistClancy @Naitik_Panjwani arxiv.org/abs/2211.11374
