Magnetic Array Assisted Triboelectric Nanogenerator Sensor for Real-Time Gesture Interaction
Nano-Micro Letters, 2021 In human-machine interaction, robotic hands are useful in many scenarios. To operate robotic hands via gestures instead of handles will greatly improve the convenience and intuition of human-machine interaction. Here, we present a magnetic array assisted

Record volumetric activities of oxygen electroreduction in partly packing graphene/AgTCNQ electrodes
Carbon Trends, 2023 Volumetric activity is the key to success in many space-constrained electrochemical devices. However, the state-of-the-art volumetric activities for oxygen electroreduction to hydrogen peroxide only achieve up to 30.8 mg cm−3 h−1. This is attributable to

Bioinspired inhibition of aggregation in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)
iScience, 2023 Summary: Different from traditional procedures of using solid stabilizers like polymers and surfactants, here we demonstrate that water, as a very “soft” matter, could function as a “spacer” to prevent the aggregation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs ...

Metal‐organic framework (MOF) thickness control for carbon dioxide electroreduction to formate
Carbon Neutralization, 2023 Decreasing particle size (like thickness) is a common strategy to enhance the activities of catalysts. In this work, we have synthesized two coppers, which are bismuth‐based metal‐organic framework (CuBi‐MOF) catalysts with different thicknesses (134.8 ...

Free versus purchased mosquito net ownership and use in Budondo sub-county, Uganda
Malaria Journal, 2018 Background While the distribution of mosquito bed nets is a widely adopted approach for malaria prevention, studies exploring how the usage of a net may be influenced by its source and other factors remain sparse. Methods A standardized questionnaire and
