Laser‐Based Sculpturing of Embedded Ultrathin Metal‐Oxide Nanopores for Enhanced Biomolecular Sensing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Controlled laser‐drilling of embedded HfO2 membranes creates three layer nanopores with Gaussian‐shaped cavities sculptured in the supporting layers. These embedded solid‐state nanopores slow DNA translocation by 12‐fold compared to SiNx pores, enabling high‐resolution, label‐free detection of short DNAs, RNAs, and proteins.

Effect of Waviness Contact on Sliding Friction of the Piston-Cylinder System in Mixed Lubrication

Tribology in Industry
The piston-cylinder is the main component of the transmission of energy in the vehicle's engine, but it represents a significant source of unavoidable friction, which negatively affects engine performance by reducing piston lifespan and increasing fuel ...

Coulombic structural superlubricity at high sliding speeds under ambient conditions

Physical Review Research
Structural superlubricity is an intriguing physical phenomenon, whereby sliding at a structurally incommensurate, atomically flat interface yields vanishingly small friction forces.
