Fiber-shaped solar cells (FSCs) with flexibility, wearability, and wearability have emerged as a topic of intensive interest and development in recent years. Although the development of this material is still in its early stages, bacteriophage-metall...

The rapid purification of biomaterials such as DNA, RNA, and antibodies has attracted extensive attention, and research interest has increased further with the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, core–shell-structured superparamagnetic nanopartic...

Fe-13Cr-3.5Al-2.0Mo-1.5wt.% ZrC alloy was irradiated by 400 keV Fe+ at 400 °C at different doses ranging from 6.35 × 1014 to 1.27 × 1016 ions/cm2 with a corresponding damage of 1.0–20.0 dpa, respectively, to investigate the effe...

The nonlinear optical response of common materials is limited by bandwidth and energy consumption, which impedes practical application in all-optical signal processing, light detection, harmonic generation, etc. Additionally, the nonlinear performanc...

Lignin is a natural light-coloured ultraviolet (UV) absorber; however, conventional extraction processes usually darken its colour and could be detrimental to its UV-shielding ability. In this study, a sustainable way of fabricating lignin–cell...

In this work, photoactive nanocomposites of ZnO/SiO2 porous heterostructures (PCHs) were prepared from montmorillonite clay. The effects of preparation methods and Zn content on the physicochemical features and photocatalytic properties were investig...

In this study, we report a novel way to produce carbon-based conductive inks for electronic and sensor technology applications. Carbonized lignin, obtained from the waste products of the Eucalyptus globulus tree paper industry, was used to produce a...

The significant challenges in the use of cellulose as a replacement for plastic are its mechanical properties’ degradation and uncontrolled deformation during the rewetting process. Herein, inspired by the reinforcement of cellulose by lignin i...

Non-platinum carbon-based catalysts have attracted much more attention in recent years because of their low cost and outstanding performance, and are regarded as one of the most promising alternatives to precious metal catalysts. Activated carbon (AC...

Nanopatterning to fabricate advanced nanostructured materials is a widely employed technology in a broad spectrum of applications going from spintronics and nanoelectronics to nanophotonics. This work reports on an easy route for nanopatterning makin...
