The influence of total surface energy on bacterial adhesion has been investigated intensively with the frequent conclusion that bacterial adhesion is less on low-energy surfaces. However, there are also a number of contrary findings that high-energy surfaces have a smaller biofouling tendency. Recently, it was found t…

Electrostatically doped graphene p-n junctions can be formed by applying large source-drain and source-gate biases to a graphene field-effect transistor, which results in trapped charges in part of the channel gate oxide. We measure the temperature distribution in situ during the electrical stress and characterize the…
