Graphene oxide (GO) membrane, bearing well-aligned interlayer nanochannels and well-defined physicochemical properties, promises fast proton transport. However, the deficiency of proton donor groups on the basal plane of GO and weak interlamellar interactions between the adjacent nanosheets often cause low proton cond…

For quasi-freestanding 2H-TaS 2 in monolayer thickness grown by in situ molecular beam epitaxy on graphene on Ir(111), we find unambiguous evidence for a charge density wave close to a 3 × 3 periodicity. Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, we determine the magnitude of the partial charge density wave gap. Angle-res…

Owning to its highly viscous and adhesive properties, viscous crude oil tends to easily adhere onto separation materials, resulting in serious fouling. Herein, we report an ampholytic nanofibrous membrane composed of a pair of oppositely charged biopolymers—positive chitosan (CS) and negative sodium alginate (ALG). CS…

Photo-luminescence (P-L) intermittency (or blinking) in semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs), a phenomenon ubiquitous to single-emitters, is generally considered to be temporally random intensity fluctuations between “bright” (“On”) and “dark” (“Off”) states. However, individual quantum-dots (QDs) rarely exhibit such tele…
