The design of electromagnetic wave absorbing materials (EWAMs) has aroused great attention with the express development of electromagnetic devices, which pose a severe EM pollution risk to human health. Herein, an Ag-doped MoCx composite was designed and constructed through a UV-light-induced self-reduction process. The UV-reduction time was contro...

Carbon has been widely used as an electrode material in commercial metal-ion batteries (MIBs) because of its desirable electrical, mechanical, and physical properties. Still, traditional carbon electrodes suffer from limited mechanical stability and electrochemical performance in MIBs. Drawing inspiration from biological species, the carbon allotro...

While the filtering and accumulation effects of the extracellular matrix (ECM) on nanoparticles (NPs) have been experimentally observed, the detailed interactions between NPs and specific biomolecules within the ECM remain poorly understood and pose challenges for in vivo molecular-level investigations. Herein, we adopt molecular dynamics simulatio...

Herein, we present the investigation of the visible light transparency and optical limiting characteristics of one dimensional photonic crystals with LiNbO3 defects fabricated by the sputtering technique. Transmission spectroscopy measurements reveal a broad photonic band gap with a 1064 nm defect mode and high transmittance within the visible rang...

This paper describes the synthesis and analysis of a photocatalyst made from a combination of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) through a simple hydrothermal process. The effectiveness of the N-rGO/g-C3N4 heterostructure in photocatalysis was examined by studying the breakdown of different types of organic pollutant...

This study delves into the photoluminescent characteristics of solid-state hybrid carbon dots/LAPONITE® (CDLP). These hybrid materials were synthesized using the hydrothermal method with a precise pH control set at 8.5. The LAPONITE® structure remains intact without structural collapse, and we detected the possible deposition of carbon dots (CDs) a...

Here we introduce scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) as a novel tool for nanoscale chemical-imaging of sub-cellular organelles, nanomaterials and of the interactions between them. Our setup uses a tuneable mid-infrared laser and a sharp scanning probe to image at a resolution substantially surpassing the diffraction lim...

Electrically tunable band structure and light-matter interaction are of great importance in designing novel devices and constructing high-integrated and high-performance photodetector systems in the future. However, tunable mechanisms on the layered semiconductor, especially the heterojunction, are still unclear. Herein, the WSe2/MoS2 phototransist...
