Transparent flexible transistor array requests large-area fabrication, high integration, high manufacturing throughput, inexpensive process, uniformity in transistor performance, and reproducibility. This study suggests a facile and reliable approach to meet the requirements. We use the Al-coated polymer nanofiber patterns obtained by electrohydrod...
Severe plastic deformation (SPD) processing of polycrystalline metals is often used to obtain ultra-fine grained and nano-crystalline microstructures. Increasing the strain rate during the SPD process is known to have a favorable effect on both grain fragmentation and mechanical properties, mainly through its effect on dislocation densities and twi...
Controlling the feature sizes of 3D bicontinuous nanoporous (3DNP) materials is essential for their advanced applications in catalysis, sensing, energy systems, etc., requiring high specific surface area. However, the intrinsic coarsening of nanoporous materials naturally reduces their surface energy leading to the deterioration of physical propert...

Samarium monosulfide (SmS) is a switchable material, showing a pressure-induced semiconductor to metal transition. As such, it can be used in different applications such as piezoresistive sensors and memory devices. In this work, we present how e-beam sublimation of samarium metal in a reactive atmosphere can be used for the deposition of semicondu...
Developing efficient earth-abundant transition metal-based electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial for hydrogen production at scale. This paper reports that the buried electrocatalytic interfaces between Ni-Fe sulfide (NiFeS) nanosheets and TiO2 conformal coatings (about 5 nm) achieved remarkable HER activity improveme...

A novel and selective cascade reaction of primary amines and alkynes for the synthesis of the corresponding secondary propargylamines is described. This protocol proceeds with a CuBr2/TBHP system through a process of oxidative deamination of primary amines to imine and alkynylation, featuring a wide scope of substrates with good functional-group to...
The solvent extraction of Li+ by Cyanex 923 was investigated upon the addition of different imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs). The results showed 1-hydroxylethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([HOEmim][NTf2]) can improve the extraction of Li+ most effectively. The fundamental mechanism is that [HOEmim][NTf2] can remarkab...
