Interface engineering-driven amino/sulfide dual-functionalized MXene aerogel for highly ion-accessible charge storage system
In the global transition to renewable energy, supercapacitors based on transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXenes) have garnered extensive attention for advanced energy storage technologies. However,...
Dual-band plasmonic resonance-enhanced absorptance in Au/Si:Te heterostructures for mid-infrared applications
This work reveals enhanced infrared optical properties in plasmonic Au/Si:Te heterostructures, where hyperdoped Si:Te layers fabricated via Te ion implantation and flashlamp annealing exhibit ∼20% bro...
Free expansion of a charged nanoparticle via electrostatic compensation
Coherent wavepacket expansion is a key component of recent proposals aiming to create non-classical states of a levitated dielectric nanoparticle. Free evolution, i.e., releasing the particle from its...
Effect of polar domain walls on macroscopic electrical properties at the (La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3/SrTiO3 interfaces
The SrTiO3-based conducting heterointerfaces, when laterally confined by nanopatterning or defined using a conductive atomic force microscope, exhibit superior electronic properties compared to their...
Superior rectification self-rectifying memristors with self-recovery capabilities enabled by GaOx/InOx heterostructures
Memristors are poised to revolutionize neuromorphic computing and next-generation memory, yet persistent challenges, including stochastic conductance control, limited endurance, and poor scalability,...
Breaking the Sabatier principle by dynamic adsorption–desorption decoupling in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution
The Sabatier principle establishes a fundamental trade-off in heterogeneous electrocatalysis. In the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), this trade-off is manifested by the coupling of the Volmer step,...
