Conductive porous vanadium nitride/graphene composite as chemical anchor of polysulfides for lithium-sulfur batteries

Lithium sulfur batteries are a promising next generation storage technology. Their performance, however, is subject to the parasitic shuttle effect. Here the authors report a cathode material comprising porous vanadium nitride nanoribbon and graphene to provide anchoring for polysulfides.

A polymer electrolyte design enables ultralow-work-function electrode for high-performance optoelectronics

Ambient-stable solution-processed conductive materials with a low work function are essential to facilitate electron injection. Here, the authors design and synthesise polymer electrolyte with work function down to 2.2 eV for applications in high-performance light-emitting diodes and solar cells.

Rosin-enabled ultraclean and damage-free transfer of graphene for large-area flexible organic light-emitting diodes

Ultraclean and damage-free transfer of graphene over large areas is crucial for the future development of flexible electronics and optoelectronics. Using a rosin-assisted method, the authors transfer graphene with an ultraclean surface and uniform small sheet resistance—a 4-inch monolithic organic light-emitting diode is demonstrated.

An ultrasensitive molybdenum-based double-heterojunction phototransistor

Here, the authors exploit a photo-induced barrier-lowering mechanism in MoS₂/ α-MoO_3-x heterojunctions to realize two-dimensional phototransistors with enhanced performance and fast response at low bias voltage.

Interlayer epitaxy of wafer-scale high-quality uniform AB-stacked bilayer graphene films on liquid Pt₃Si/solid Pt

Specific stacking sequence of graphene can enable observation of unusual properties however it has been difficult to obtain this over wider areas. Here, the authors report wafer-scale growth of 100% AB-stacked bilayer graphene films by CVD on liquid Pt₃Si/solid Pt substrates showing high quality and improved mechanical properties comparable to the mechanically exfoliated flakes.

Alloying–realloying enabled high durability for Pt–Pd-3d-transition metal nanoparticle fuel cell catalysts

Durability of catalysts under fuel cell reaction conditions is challenging for active nanoalloy electrocatalysts derived from platinum group metals and other transition metals. Here, the authors show that realloying in certain multimetallic nanoalloys plays a major role in enabling the high durability.

Emergence of plasmid-mediated high-level tigecycline resistance genes in animals and humans

Mobile tet(X3) and tet(X4) genes are identified on conjugative plasmids in Enterobacteriaceae and Acinetobacter isolated from humans, meat for consumption and animals that confer resistance to tetracyclines, including tigecycline, eravacycline and omadacycline.
