Highly p-doped graphene obtained by fluorine intercalation [PDF]
, 2011 We present a method for decoupling epitaxial graphene grown on SiC(0001) by intercalation of a layer of fluorine at the interface. The fluorine atoms do not enter into a covalent bond with graphene, but rather saturate the substrate Si bonds.

Modular Design of Programmable Mechanofluorescent DNA Hydrogels
Nature Communications, 2019 Mechanosensitive materials typically lack complex response patterns due to difficult synthetic methods. Here, the authors introduce FRET-based DNA tension probes into macroscopic 3D DNA hydrogels to prepare mechanofluorescent materials with programmable ...

Sacrificial Ionic Bonds Need To Be Randomly Distributed To Provide Shear Deformability [PDF]
Nano Letters, 2009 Multivalent ions are known to allow for reversible cross-linking in soft biological materials, providing stiffness and extensibility via sacrificial bonds. We present a simple model where stiff nanoscale elements carrying negative charges are coupled in shear by divalent mobile cations in aqueous media.

Stabilizing black phosphorus nanosheets via edge-selective bonding of sacrificial C60 molecules [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 AbstractFew-layer black phosphorus (BP) with an anisotropic two-dimensional (2D)-layered structure shows potential applications in photoelectric conversion and photocatalysis, but is easily oxidized under ambient condition preferentially at its edge sites. Improving the ambient stability of BP nanosheets has been fulfilled by chemical functionalization,

Hierarchical Chain Model of Spider Capture Silk Elasticity
, 2005 Spider capture silk is a biomaterial with both high strength and high elasticity, but the structural design principle underlying these remarkable properties is still unknown. It was revealed recently by atomic force microscopy that, an exponential force--
