Hg adatoms on graphene: A first-principles study
/ Fenta, A S (CERN) ; Amorim, C O (Aveiro U.) ; Gonçalves, J N (Aveiro U.) ; Fortunato, N (Aveiro U.) ; Barbosa, M B (Porto U.) ; Araujo, J P (Leuven U.) ; Houssa, M (U. Gent (main)) ; Cottenier, S (U. Gent (main)) ; Van Bael, M J (Leuven U.) ; Correia, J G (CERN) et al.
The interest in understanding the interaction between graphene and atoms that are adsorbed on its
surface (adatoms) spans a wide range of research fields and applications, for example, to
controllably change the properties of graphene in electronic devices or to detect those changes in
graphene-based sensors. We present a density functional theory study of the interaction between
graphene and Hg adatoms. [...]

Strong magnetoelectric coupling at an atomic nonmagnetic electromagnetic probe in bismuth ferrite

Isolated nonmagnetic substitutional defect ions experience huge coupled electric magnetic interaction in the single-phase multiferroic BiFeO$_{3}$. In the ferroelectric state above the magnetic Néel temperature $T$$_{N}$, the electric environment generates a single symmetric electric field gradient (EFG) parallel to the electric polarization direction.

The electric field gradient as a signature of the binding and the local structure of adatoms on graphene
/ Fenta, A S (Leuven U. ; Aveiro U. ; CERN) ; Amorim, C O (Aveiro U.) ; Gonçalves, J N (Aveiro U.) ; Fortunato, N (Aveiro U.) ; Barbosa, M B (Porto U. ; Singapore Natl. U.) ; Cottenier, S (Gent U.) ; Correia, J G (CERN ; Lisbon, IST) ; Pereira, L M C (Leuven U.) ; Amaral, V S (Aveiro U.)
We examined the interaction between adatoms and graphene for Ag, Cd, In and Hg by density functional theory. We establish a relation between the binding energy and the electric-field gradient tensor (EFG) for each atom, which indicates that hyperfine interactions can be used to probe the binding and stability of adatoms on graphene.

Multiferroic bismuth ferrite: Perturbed angular correlation studies on its ferroic $\alpha$-$\beta$ phase transition
/ Marschick, G (Vienna, Tech. U. ; CERN) ; Schell, J (CERN ; U. Duisburg-Essen) ; Stöger, B (Vienna, Tech. U.) ; Gonçalves, J N (Aveiro U.) ; Karabasov, M O (U. Duisburg-Essen) ; Zyabkin, D (Ilmenau Tech. U.) ; Welker, A (CERN) ; Escobar C , M (U. Duisburg-Essen) ; Gärtner, D (Munster U.) ; Efe, I (Zurich, ETH) et al.
Work of numerous research groups has shown different outcomes of studies of the transition from the ferroelectric $\alpha$-phase to the high temperature $\beta$-phase of the multiferroic, magnetoelectric perovskite Bismuth Ferrite (BiFeO$_{3}$ or BFO). Using the perturbed angular correlation (PAC) method with $^{111m}$Cd as the probe nucleus, the $\alpha$ to $\beta$ phase transition was characterized. [...]

/Isolde
We present an ultra sensitive method to quantify the uptake of Hg by dithiocarbamate functionalized magnetic nanoparticles using radioactive tracker spectroscopy. We show a lower limit of detection of about 10 fg L-1, much lower than any other known techniques used to determine the uptake of Hg (about 104 more sensitive), without the need of digesting or processing the sorption agent.
