A membrane placed below the plane of an emitter and a receiver can interact with the radiative modes and modulate heat transfer by as much as a factor of five.
Tellurium thin films evaporated at cryogenic temperatures facilitate the realization of high performance wafer-scale flexible p-type field-effect transistors and various types of logic gates.
The magnetic phase diagram of thin-layered antiferromagnets is revealed experimentally by investigating the tunnelling conductance as a function of magnetic field. A rich magnetic behaviour in CrCl3 is uncovered, from which relevant magnetic information is extracted that is not easily available with other approaches.
This review highlights key opportunistic areas for applying nanotechnologies towards the manipulation of the microbiome for the treatment of cancer, gives an overview of seminal work and discusses future challenges and our perspective on this emerging area.
Composite electrodes made of nanowires and bovine serum albumin enable electrochemical protein biosensors that can be used in whole blood for a month or more.
The use of nanomedicine in cancer requires the adoption of specific strategies to optimize its potential. This perspective proposes four strategies including the identification of patients for clinical trials, investments in modular nanocarrier design, the integration in multimodal combination therapy regimes and the inclusion in immunotherapy studies
The motion of a single electron can now be sampled with picosecond resolution, which helps to characterize and understand non-equilibrium electron dynamics in nanoscale conductors.
The mechanistic electrochemical mass spectrometry study of ethylene production on Cu-based nanocatalysts under CO2/CO co-feeds indicates the existence of separate, reactant-specific surface adsorption sites for CO2 and CO, which guided the design of a multi-component CO2RR electrocatalyst.
Energy-efficient magnetization manipulation is a prerequisite for competitive spintronic devices. The Weyl semimetal WTe2 can act as a spin current source that enables magnetization switching of an adjacent ferromagnet at low power consumption and additionally induces chiral magnetism.
While heating a catalyst causes growth of nanoparticles through Ostwald ripening, repeated on/off high-temperature shockwaves can reverse the process, converting the nanoparticles into stable single-atom catalysts.
Coherent ultrafast spectroscopy of nanofocused plasmonic pulses strengthens the nonlinear response in graphene, highlighting the origin of a new general phenomenon.
A scalable manufacturing process for complex, high-quality superconductor/topological insulator structures could, in future, enable the production of topological quantum computation architectures.
