Polymeric coatings that can undergo effective functionalization with ligands and (bio)molecules necessary for intended applications are widely employed to engineer functional interfaces. Herein, amine-reactive polymer brushes are fabricated using a succini ...
Nitrile-butadiene rubbers (NBR) have been extensively used as dielectric materials due to their commercial availability, excellent mechanical properties, glass transition temperature below 0 degrees C, and increased dielectric permittivity owing to the pre ...
Two-dimensional MXenes with their outstanding physical and chemical properties have been extensively used in numerous fields such as electrochemical energy storage, catalysis, and sensing. In these applications, high active surface area and facilitated dif ...
Cladding of a Zr-based metallic glass (MG) on an aluminum substrate was conducted using a layer-wise laser additive manufacturing (AM) method, leading to relative densities higher than 99%. The thickness of the cladding was about 300 μm. The effect of lase ...
Implantable flexible neural interfaces (IfNIs) are capable of directly modulating signals of the central and peripheral nervous system by stimulating or recording the action potential. Despite outstanding results in acute experiments on animals and humans, ...
In this paper, we report on the comprehensive study on Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanolayer coated etched Fiber Bragg Grating (eFBG) strain sensor. MoS2 nanolayer is coated using Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) of Molybdenum (Mo) on eFBGs followed by sulf ...
Ni-P electroless coatings are widely applied for protection of magnesium alloys and other materials due to the low energy consumption of the process and high resistance to corrosion and wear, properties that can be improved with the incorporation of partic ...
Carbon-based hole transport layer-free carbon mesoscopic perovskite solar cells (MPSCs) are considered to be cell architectures with high potential for commercialization, due to their enhanced stability. In the standard process for large area and module fa ...
Inkjet printing technology was employed for the application of protective layer coatings in SOFC metallic interconnects. Aqueous-based spinel coatings were inkjet-printed on standard and surface nitrided K41 ferritic stainless-steel substrates. Inkjet-prin ...
Nanopore-based resistive-pulse recordings represent a promising approach for single-molecule biophysics with applications ranging from rapid DNA and RNA sequencing to "fingerprinting" proteins. Based on advances in fabrication methods, solid-state nanopore ...
