A Single‐Crystalline High‐κ K2Mo3O10 Dielectric for Two‐Dimensional Field‐Effect Transistors

open access: yesSusMat, EarlyView.
K2Mo3O10 nanosheet can be synthesized by CVD method with a wide bandgap (∼4.09 eV) and high dielectric constant (∼39). The MoS2 FET with K2Mo3O10 as the top‐gate dielectric exhibits a steep SS as low as 76 mV dec−1 with an average of approximately 140 mV dec−1 and an on/off current ratio of up to 107 with an average of approximately 106.

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.
