Unlocking the Potential of MXene‐Based Electrochemical Biosensors: A Review of Biofunctionalization Strategies and Biosensing Principles

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Electrochemical biosensors enable the accurate and timely detection of clinical biomarkers, improving healthcare and precision medicine. MXene nanosheets, a class of 2D transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides, are promising materials for developing next‐generation electrochemical biosensors due to their unique physicochemical ...

Confronting The Threat of Relativism : Views from Islamic Philosophy

Kanz Philosophia: A Journal for Islamic Philosophy and Mysticism, 2011
Today the issue of ethics and most importantly moral values are being seen as merely based upon opinions and emotions. This has led towards a relativisation of moral values and thus towards the erosion of values amongst societies.

The ‘Lifeblood’ of Science and Its Politics: Interrogating Epistemic Curiosity as an Educational Aim

Education Sciences, 2015
Social- and virtue-epistemologies connect intellectual and moral concerns in ways significant for education and its theory. For most educationists, epistemic and ethical virtues are no longer dissociated. However, many political framings or operations of

Flux Analysis of the Supercapacitor Performance at Component Level

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The central objective of this study is to introduce new approach and metrics for analyzing the supercapacitor performance at the component level. The lack of standardized evaluation methodologies for analyzing the nonlinear behavior of real system is critical and hinders progress of supercapacitor.

Degradable Donor‐Acceptor Polymeric Mixed Ionic‐Electronic Conductors for Transient Electronics

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Here, we report degradable donor–acceptor (D–A) polymeric mixed ionic‐electronic conductors for transient electronics. We take a systematic side chain engineering approach to elucidate how molecular‐level modifications of donor–acceptor (D–A) polymer structures can satisfy demands that are often conflicting: degradability, charge carrier transport, and

Three‐Dimensional Printed Microarchitected Hierarchically Porous Biodegradable PLA/S/CNT Nanocomposite Electrodes for High‐Performance Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hierarchically microarchitected PLA/S/CNT cathodes are fabricated via scalable fused filament 3D printing as high‐sulfur‐loading hosts for rechargeable lithium–sulfur batteries. The assembled Li–S cells with sulfur loadings up to 17 mg cm−2 deliver an areal capacity of 9.2 mAh cm−2 and retain 96% of their discharge capacity after 100 charge–discharge ...

High‐Performance Ternary Organic Solar Cells via Isomeric Engineering of Nonfullerene Guest Acceptors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Two isomeric nonfullerene acceptors, BTP‐γ‐Br and BTP‐δ‐Br, were designed to investigate their effects on the optoelectronic properties and photovoltaic performance of ternary blends. Incorporating BTP‐γ‐Br into the D18:N3 binary system can enhance film crystallinity and suppress charge recombination, achieving a high PCE of 19.2% and a certified JSC ...

Thinking Twice about Virtue and Vice: Philosophical Situationism and the Vicious Minds Hypothesis [PDF]

, 2017
This paper provides an empirical defense of credit theories of knowing against Mark Alfano’s challenges to them based on his theses of inferential cognitive situationism and of epistemic situationism.
