Leveraging Design of Experiments to Unravel the Amplification Mechanism of Single‐Molecule Wide‐Field Biosensors

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Detecting single molecules on large interfaces is challenging due to minimal perturbations on the sensing surface. Some biological systems achieve this feat using amplification mechanisms, but their molecular foundations remain unclear. To investigate, a Design of Experiments (DoE) approach examines how pH and ionic strength in conditioning solutions ...

Well‐Defined Poly(HPMAm) Brushes via Surface‐Initiated RAFT Polymerization; A Mixed‐Chain Transfer Agent (CTA) Approach

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A simple method relying on surface‐initiated RAFT polymerization is presented using a mixed‐chain transfer agent (mixed‐CTA) approach to grow well‐defined poly(HPMAm) brushes with precise control, achieving >70 nm thickness in 4 h at moderate temperature, 50 °C. Abstract Over three decades, efforts to prevent non‐specific protein adsorption on surfaces

Water Nanofilms Mediate Adhesion and Heat Transfer at Hematite‐Hydrocarbon Interfaces

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Work of adhesion, Wsl, shown as a function of water coverage for the weak, intermediate and strong solid–liquid interaction strengths. Anhydrous and hydroxylated surfaces are represented by unfilled and filled markers, respectively. The result for the anhydrous surface with the strong solid liquid interactions (Wsl = 405 mJ m−2) is not shown ...

Tailoring the Electrochemical Performance of SnO2‐Based Anodes for Li‐Ion Batteries: Effect of Morphology and Composite Matrix

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Three different composite anodes, based on SnO2, are investigated as potential anode materials for lithium‐ion batteries. Three different strategies are employed to stabilize SnO2 upon cycling i.e., i) use of an inorganic matrix (TiO2), ii) use of an amorphous carbon matrix, and iii) use of SnO2 with a tailored morphology (nanorod) and a carbon coating.
