Editable supercapacitors with customizable stretchability based on mechanically strengthened ultralong MnO2 nanowire composite by Lv, Zhisheng, Luo, Yifei, Tang, Yuxin, Wei, Jiaqi, Zhu, Zhiqiang, Zhou, Xinran, Li, Wenlong, Zeng, Yi, Zhang, Wei, Zhang, Yanyan, Qi, Dianpeng, Pan, Shaowu, Loh, Xian Jun, Chen, Xiaodong

“…As a representative of concept for system integration, the editable supercapacitors are integrated with a strain sensor, and the system exhibits a stable sensing performance even under arm swing. Being highly stretchable, easily programmable, as well as connectable in series and parallel, an editable supercapacitor with customizable stretchability is promising to produce stylish energy storage devices to power various portable, stretchable, and wearable devices.…”

Enlightening of the low-dimensional high-TC superconductivity: bond contraction and electron dual polarization [低维高温超导的启示: 键收缩与电子双重极化] by Sun, Chang Qing

“…Second, atomic undercoordination of the O-Cu chains and the O-Cu planes shortens and stiffens the local O-Cu bond and lengthens and weakens the O:Cup nonbonding interactions associated with further enhancement of the Cup dipoles polarization, this process is the same as the O:H-O bond relaxation and polarization occurred to the skins of water and ice. Last, the electronphonon interaction is realized by the undercoordination-induced bond relaxation and the dual polarization by lone pairs and bond contraction. …”

Ohmic contact formation to β-Ga2O3 nanosheet transistors with Ar-containing plasma treatment by Chen, Jinxin, Liu, Bingyan, Gu, Yang, Li, Bin

“…With the optimal plasma pre-treatment (i.e., Ar plasma, 100 W, 60 s), the resulting β-Ga2O3 nanosheet field-effect transistors (FETs) show effective Ohmic contact (i.e., contact resistance RC of 104 Ω·mm) without any post-annealing, which leads to competitive device performance such as a high current on/off ratio (>107), a low subthreshold swing (SS, 249 mV/dec), and acceptable field-effect mobility ((Formula presented.), ~21.73 cm2 V−1 s−1). …”
