Lovely write up of our @APSphysics article on stick-slip motion causing electrification in droplets by @physorg_com

This work flips droplet charging on its head, showing it happens dry to wet as well as wet to dry!

Wonderful to lead this with @dr_joeberry.

It's amazing that we still are finding out things ⚡️about something as simple as a water droplet! 💧 - this is why I got into science in the first place! ❤️

Have a read of the article in @APSphysics #PRL here:

Researchers from RMIT University and @UniMelb have discovered #water generates an #electrical #charge up to 10 times greater than previously understood when it moves across a surface.💧Read more: https://t.co/mUYwqOEBBv

We're really excited about this work transforming #waste #polymers into #sustainable #energyharvesters, led out of @ResearchRMIT and with @AndrisSutka from Riga Technical University.

Read the work our innovation is based on here: https://t.co/Hi6h8Nzw82

A great talk from Professor Timothy Schmidt of UNSW Sydney on his work over the past decade on the search for intermediates in singlet fission/triplet fusion processes. #PhysChem24

[Tim Schmidt @schmidtim]

Tom Oliver from @BristolUni on stage. @RACI_PhysChem

[RACI Phys Chem @RACI_PhysChem]

The first two hot topic talks by Dr Peter Watson of the University of Oxford on IR Action Spectroscopy and Ariel Jones from University of Melbourne on Time-Dependent DFT #PhysChem24

[RACI Phys Chem @RACI_PhysChem]

We had a great second session of talks from Prof Evan Bieske from University of Melbourne, Prof Katya Pas from Monash University and Prof Ivan Kassal from University of Sydney #PhysChem24

[Lars Goerigk @lgoer_compchem]

Excited about Ariel giving a talk in the upcoming session, talking about what else is happening in the group @RACI_PhysChem #ozchem

[GRAPHERGIA @graphergia_eu]

Our #GRAPHERGIA partner Philippe Basset (@UGustaveEiffel) co-hosted a symposium on #nanogenerators at the EU Materials Research Society 2024 Spring Meeting

“It was a unique opportunity to discover the wealth of TENG activity in EU”, he said

Our perspective on #electrocataylsis for #GreenChemistry is online in #AdvancedEnergyandSustainabilityResearch.

We tackle challenges facing cataylsis from Data Reporting 🔢to Characterisation 🔬 and Operating Conditions🔥

Using Titanium Dioxide to split water seems an incredibly bad idea? 🤦‍♂️ - unless you decouple the half reactions. 🪓

In new research from @AndrisSutka and @ResearchRMIT we show how.
