Self-assembled nanostructures of amphiphilic and double hydrophilic block copolymers have been increasingly utilized as potent polymeric nanocarriers of therapeutic drugs, genes, bioactive molecules, and imaging/contrast agents due to improved water solubility, bioavailability, and extended blood circulation duration.…
Functional microporous conducting carbon with a high surface area of about 1230 m2 g−1 is synthesized by single-step pyrolysis of dead plant leaves (dry waste, ground powder) without any activation and studied for supercapacitor application. We suggest that the activation is provided by the natural constituents in the…
Thickness is one of the fundamental parameters that define the electronic, optical, and thermal properties of two-dimensional (2D) crystals. Phonons in molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) were recently found to exhibit unique thickness dependence due to the interplay between short and long range interactions. Here we report R…
A 3D highly conductive urchin-like NiCo₂S₄ nanostructure has been successfully prepared using a facile precursor transformation method. Remarkably, the NiCo₂S₄ electroactive material demonstrates superior electrochemical performance with ultrahigh high-rate capacitance, very high specific capacitance, and excellent cy…
Sheet-like graphitic carbon with a porous structure can provide low-resistant pathways and short ion-diffusion channels for energy storage, and thus is expected to be an excellent material for high-power supercapacitors. Herein, porous graphene-like nanosheets (PGNSs) with a large surface area were synthesized for the…
Green luminescent water soluble oxygenous carbon dots with an average size of 3 nm were synthesized by simply heating banana (Musa acuminata) juice at 150 °C for 4 h without using any surface passivating and oxidizing agent or inorganic salt. The literature was used to propose a possible mechanism for the formation of…
With the fast development of the power electronics, dielectric materials with high energy-storage density, low loss, and good temperature stability are eagerly desired for the potential application in advanced pulsed capacitors.
