Hydrides have long been considered promising candidates for achieving room-temperature superconductivity; however, the extremely high pressures typically required for high critical temperatures remain a major challenge in experiment. Here, we...
Rubrene single crystals are seen as a “fruit-fly” benchmark material for organic semiconductors. The article reviews several investigations and discoveries that focused on rubrene and on the development of a physical understanding of its properties.
Flexible piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) capable of harvesting multidirectional mechanical energy are highly desirable for next-generation self-powered systems. However, most existing designs exhibit limited performance due to their single-mode response. Herein,...
We report atomic layer etching of metal–polar AlN and GaN with SF 6 and Cl 2 /BCl 3 plasmas. Etch rates of 1 unit cell per cycle and synergy >97% is achieved at temperatures at or below 100 °C.
J-aggregated hydroxychalcone AIEgens enable simple, smartphone-based visual detection of biogenic amines (LOD: 4.2–5.9 ppm) and real-time vegan meat spoilage monitoring.
