Palladium–Platinum Alloy Nanoribbon/Nanosheets for Room-Temperature Hydrogen Detection [PDF]
SensorsHydrogen is being extensively investigated as a carbon-free energy carrier, particularly for fuel-cell vehicles and long-term energy storage. Because H2 can form explosive mixtures in air at concentrations as low as 4%, its safe use requires inexpensive,

Self-assembly behaviours of peptide–drug conjugates: influence of multiple factors on aggregate morphology and potential self-assembly mechanism [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Peptide–drug conjugates (PDCs) as self-assembly prodrugs have the unique and specific features to build one-component nanomedicines. Supramolecular structure based on PDCs could form various morphologies ranging from nanotube, nanofibre, nanobelt to ...

Electric-Field Control in Phosphorene-Based Heterostructures
Nanomaterials, 2022 Phosphorene is a graphene-like material with an intermediate band gap, in contrast to zero-gap graphene and large-gap dichalcogenides or hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), which makes it more suitable for nanoelectronic devices.

Optimum Contact Configurations for Quasi-One-Dimensional Phosphorene Nanodevices
Nanomaterials, 2023 We employ atomistic quantum transport simulations based on non-equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) formalism of quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) phosphorene, or phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs), to explore routes towards minimizing contact resistance (RC ...
