Organic electrochemical transistors printed from degradable materials as disposable biochemical sensors

Danick Briand, Nicolas Francis Fumeaux, Silvia Demuru, Claudio Pinto Almeida

Transient electronics hold promise in reducing electronic waste, especially in applications that require only a limited lifetime. While various degradable electronic and physical sensing devices have been proposed, there is growing interest in the developm ...

How to Make Elastomers Piezoelectric?

Francis Owusu

Piezoelectrics play a significant role in modern electronics and electric devices. Thermal or mechanical stress on such materials induces a change in polarization generating an electric response, which is the sole effect of why they are so interesting. How ...

Rotating disk diluter hyphenated with single particle ICP-MS as an online dilution and sampling platform for metallic nanoparticles characterization in ambient aerosol

Christian Ludwig, Andrea Testino, Tianyu Cen

The application of single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (spICP-MS) for online metallic nanoparticles (NPs) characterization in ambient aerosol remains a challenge. In this study, a hyphenated setup consisting of a rotating disk dilu ...

Electrical detection of the flat-band dispersion in van der Waals field-effect structures

Andras Kis, Oleg Yazyev, Kristians Cernevics, Fedele Tagarelli, Edoardo Lopriore, Zhe Sun, Gabriele Pasquale

Two-dimensional flat-band systems have recently attracted considerable interest due to the rich physics unveiled by emergent phenomena and correlated electronic states at van Hove singularities. However, the difficulties in electrically detecting the flat- ...

Associations between urinary biomarkers of oxidative stress and biomarkers of tobacco smoke exposure in smokers

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Nicolas Sambiagio

Oxidative stress can contribute to the development of diseases, and may originate from exposures to toxicants commonly found in air pollution and cigarette smoke such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Yet, as ...

Insights into the molecular composition of semi-volatile aerosols in the summertime central Arctic Ocean using FIGAERO-CIMS

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

The remote central Arctic during summertime has a pristine atmosphere with very low aerosol particle concentrations. As the region becomes increasingly ice-free during summer, enhanced oceanatmosphere fluxes of aerosol particles and precursor gases may the ...

Electrochemical determination of nicotine in smokers' sweat

Sandro Carrara, Tugba Kilic

In this work, we report the demonstration of the capability of electrochemical sensors to provide measurements directly on the sweat of volunteers to successfully discriminate heavy smokers by light ones. Since its importance as pharmaceutical treatment-ag ...

Intrinsic edge excitons in two-dimensional MoS2

Nicola Marzari, Marco Gibertini, Andrea Ferretti

Using accurate first-principles calculations based on many-body perturbation theory, we predict that two-dimensional MoS2 hosts edge excitons with universal character, intrinsic to the existence of edges and lying well below the onset of bulk features. The ...

Time-resolved formation of excited atomic and molecular states in XUV-induced nanoplasmas in ammonia clusters

Marcel Drabbels, Andrew Daniel Bonnar Clark

High intensity XUV radiation from a free-electron laser (FEL) was used to create a nanoplasma inside ammonia clusters with the intent of studying the resulting electron-ion interactions and their interplay with plasma evolution. In a plasma-like state, ele ...

Nicotine increases sleep spindle activity

Christian O'Reilly

Studies have shown that both nicotine and sleep spindles are associated with enhanced memorisation. Further, a few recent studies have shown how cholinergic input through nicotinic and muscarinic receptors can trigger or modulate sleep processes in general ...
