Metasurfaces provide an ideal platform for optical sensing because they produce strong light-field confinement and enhancement over extended regions that allow us to identify deep-subwavelength layers of organic and inorganic molecules. However, the requir ...
The vacuum deposition of complex functional molecules and nanoparticles by thermal sublimation is often hindered due to their extremely low vapor pressure. This especially impedes the application of ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) based analytical and surface modif ...
Primary diamines are valuable yet challenging to synthesize due to issues such as product and intermediate condensation and catalyst poisoning. To address these problems, effective synthesis systems must be explored. Here, 2,5-bis(aminomethyl)furan (BAMF), ...
In this paper, the authors present a breakthrough extension of the stencil lithography tool and method. In the standard stencil lithography static mode, material is deposited through apertures in a membrane (stencil) on a substrate which is clamped to the ...
Protein stabilization has a crucial rule sustaining biological functionality, disease prevention, and pharmaceutical formulation stabilization, and yet its stabilization mechanism by small molecules such as amino acids is not fully understood. In this work ...
The escalating energy demand and the imperative necessity to reduce the carbon footprint require transformative approaches to energy conversion. Materials chemistry plays a pivotal role in addressing these global challenges by developing novel materials fo ...
The ability to resolve the dynamic evolution of electrocatalytically induced processes with electrochemical liquid-phase electron microscopy (EM) is limited by the microcell configuration. Herein, a free-standing tri-layer graphene is integrated as a membr ...
