The white backlight in displays is generated by optimizing the proportions of individual emitters with different wavelengths by variations in materials composition, phase, and structure. Color pixels usually result from the separation of white light or the excitation with multiwavelength or multipulse sources. However…
Establishing the appropriate theoretical framework for unconventional superconductivity in the iron-based materials requires correct understanding of both the electron correlation strength and the role of Fermi surfaces. This fundamental issue becomes especially relevant with the discovery of the iron chalcogenide sup…
Electrically driven single-photon emitting devices have immediate applications in quantum cryptography, quantum computation and single-photon metrology. Mature device fabrication protocols and the recent observations of single defect systems with quantum functionalities make silicon carbide an ideal material to build…
The effective synthesis of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides alloy is essential for successful application in electronic and optical devices based on a tunable band gap. Here we show a synthesis process for Mo1-xWxS2 alloy using sulfurization of super-cycle atomic layer deposition Mo1-xWxOy. Various spe…
Scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy (SKPFM) of annealed and cold-rolled grade 2205 duplex stainless steel has been correlated with microstructure analysis using electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD). In annealed microstructure Volta potential differences indicated micro-galvanic coupling between ferrite and au…
Metasurfaces utilizing engineered metallic nanostructures have recently emerged as an important means to manipulate the propagation of light waves in a prescribed manner. However, conventional metallic metasurfaces mainly efficiently work in the visible and near-infrared regime, and lack sufficient tunability. In this…
Moisture-harvesting lizards such as the Texas horned lizard (Iguanidae: Phrynosoma cornutum) live in arid regions. Special skin adaptations enable them to access water sources such as moist sand and dew: their skin is capable of collecting and transporting water directionally by means of a capillary system between the…
Highly photoluminescent nitrogen-doped carbon nanoparticles (N-CNPs) were prepared by a simple and green route employing sodium alginate as a carbon source and tryptophan as both a nitrogen source and a functional monomer. The as-synthesized N-CNPs exhibited excellent water solubility and biocompatibility with a fluor…
Multifunctional stimuli-responsive nanotheranostic systems are highly desirable for realizing simultaneous biomedical imaging and on-demand therapy with minimized adverse effects. Herein, we present the construction of an intelligent X-ray-controlled NO-releasing upconversion nanotheranostic system (termed as PEG-USMS…
Nickel-cobalt oxides were prepared by coprecipitation of their hydroxides precursors and a following thermal treatment under a moderate temperature. The preformed nickel-cobalt bimetallic hydroxide exhibited a flower-like morphology with single crystalline nature and composed of many interconnected nanosheets. The rat…
The recent discovery of large magnetoresistance in tungsten ditelluride provides a unique playground to find new phenomena and significant perspective for potential applications. The large magnetoresistance effect originates from a perfect balance of hole and electron carriers, which is sensitive to external pressure.…
We have calculated inelastic mean free paths (IMFPs) for 41 elemental solids (Li, Be, graphite, diamond, glassy C, Na, Mg, Al, Si, K, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ge, Y, Nb, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, In, Sn, Cs, Gd, Tb, Dy, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, and Bi) for electron energies from 50 eV to 200 keV. The IMFPs were…
Tungsten ditelluride has attracted intense research interest due to the recent discovery of its large unsaturated magnetoresistance up to 60 T. Motivated by the presence of a small, sensitive Fermi surface of 5d electronic orbitals, we boost the electronic properties by applying a high pressure, and introduce supercon…
Graphene-like two-dimensional materials have garnered tremendous interest as emerging device materials for nanoelectronics due to their remarkable properties. However, their applications in spintronics have been limited by the lack of intrinsic magnetism. Here, using hybrid density functional theory, we predict ferrom…
Because of the generally lower activation energy associated with proton conduction in oxides compared to oxygen ion conduction, protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) should be able to operate at lower temperatures than solid oxide fuel cells (250° to 550°C versus ≥600°C) on hydrogen and hydrocarbon fuels if fabrication…
An effective method for rapid and high efficiency removal of Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from contaminated water had been proposed based on the Graphene/silica magnetic nanocomposites (M/GO). Factors affecting the adsorption efficiency of M/GO were investigated and we found that the optimum adsorption pH was 5.5,…
Hall effect and magnetoresistance have been measured on single crystals of the parent phase NaFeAs under a uniaxial pressure. Although significant difference of the in-plane resistivity ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{xx}(I\ensuremath{\parallel}a)$ and ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{xx}(I\ensuremath{\parallel}b)$ with the uniaxial press…

A chemical fuel cell is an electrochemical device that produces electrical energy from any fuel such as hydrogen, methane, propane, methanol, etc., using oxygen or an oxidizing agent. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is one type of fuel cell, where the conversion of the chemical energy from the fuel to electrical energy is a…
A system for analyzing the dynamic drive scheme (DDS) of a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) display is developed. The proposed method efficiently determines the transition properties of different stable states of CLC. The voltage differences among phases (preparation, selection, and evolution phases) are strongly rela…
