Carbon fiber aerogel made from raw cotton : a novel, efficient and recyclable sorbent for oils and organic solvents
(2013)
Twisted carbon fiber (TCF) aerogel with good selective sorption is produced in large scale by using raw cotton as the precursor. TCF aerogel shows highly efficient sorption of organic liquids (pump oil: up to 192 times its ...
A facile, relative green, and inexpensive synthetic approach toward large-scale production of SnS2 nanoplates for high-performance lithium-ion batteries
(2013)
A facile, environmentally friendly, and economical synthetic route for production of large-amounts (gram scale) of two-dimensional (2D) layered SnS2 nanoplates is presented. The electrode fabricated from the SnS2 nanoplate ...
Synthesis of few-layer MoS2 nanosheet-coated TiO2 nanobelt heterostructures for enhanced photocatalytic activities
(2013)
MoS2 nanosheet-coated TiO2 nanobelt heterostructures—referred to as TiO2@MoS2—with a 3D hierarchical configuration are prepared via a hydrothermal reaction. The TiO2 nanobelts used as a synthetic template inhibit the growth ...
Fabrication of flexible, all-reduced graphene oxide non-volatile memory devices
(2013)
A flexible, all reduced graphene oxide non-volatile memory device, with lightly reduced GO as an active layer and highly reduced GO as both top and bottom electrodes, is fabricated by a full-solution process and its ...
Mechanical exfoliation and characterization of single- and few-layer nanosheets of WSe2, TaS2, and TaSe2
(2013)
Single- and few-layer transition-metal dichalcogenide nanosheets, such as WSe2, TaS2, and TaSe2, are prepared by mechanical exfoliation. A Raman microscope is employed to characterize the single-layer (1L) to quinary-layer ...
Gold nanotip array for ultrasensitive electrochemical sensing and spectroscopic monitoring
(2013)
A gold nanotip array platform with a combination of ultrasensitive electrochemical sensing and spectroscopic monitoring capability is reported. Adenosine triphosphate is detected down to 1 pM according to the impedance ...
Layer thinning and etching of mechanically exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets by thermal annealing in air
(2013)
A simple thermal annealing method for layer thinning and etching of mechanically exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets in air is reported. Using this method, single-layer (1L) MoS2 nanosheets are achieved after the thinning of MoS2 ...
Memory devices using a mixture of MoS2 and graphene oxide as the active layer
(2013)
A mixed film consisting of 2D MoS2 and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets is used to fabricate memory devices. The conductive MoS2 component in the MoS2-GO film increases the film conductivity, thus facilitating oxygen migration ...
Graphene-Based Materials for Solar Cell Applications
(2013)
Graphene has attracted increasing attention due to its unique electrical, optical, optoelectronic, and mechanical properties, which have opened up huge numbers of opportunities for applications. An overview of the recent ...
Oriented molecular attachments through sol–gel chemistry for synthesis of ultrathin hydrated vanadium pentoxide nanosheets and their applications
(2013)
Ultrathin single-crystalline V2O5·0.76H2O nanosheets with a thickness of 1.5–2.6 nm are prepared on the basis of molecular-level ‘oriented attachment’ through special sol–gel chemistry. The initial formation of 3–7 nm ...
