Polydopamine-coated photoautotrophic bacteria for improving extracellular electron transfer in living photovoltaics

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Melania Reggente, Mohammed Mouhib, Hanxuan Wang, Charlotte Elisabeth Marie Roullier, Fabian Fischer, Patricia Brandl

Living photovoltaics are microbial electrochemical devices that use whole cell–electrode interactions to convert solar energy to electricity. The bottleneck in these technologies is the limited electron transfer between the microbe and the electrode surfac ...

Etching nanopores in single-layer graphene with a sub-angstrom resolution in molecular sieving

Shiqi Huang

Single-layer graphene (SLG) membranes, hosting molecular-sieving nanopores have been regarded as the ultimate gas separation membranes, attributing to the fact that they are the thinnest possible molecular barrier. However, the expected attractive performa ...

Oxygen Plasma/Bismuth Modified Inkjet Printed Graphene Electrode for the Sensitive Simultaneous Detection of Lead and Cadmium

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic, Léopoldine Guenang Sonfack, Prachi Gupta

In this work, a simple procedure for the preparation of an inkjet printed disposable graphene electrode is reported. Commercial graphene ink was printed on a kapton substrate and the resulting electrode was 30 min treated by oxygen plasma, then modified by ...
