Semiconducting nanomaterials with 3D network structures exhibit various fascinating properties such as electrical conduction, high permeability, and large surface areas, which are beneficial for adsorption, separation, sensing applications. However, research on these materials is substantially restricted by the limited trans-scalability of their structural design tunability conductivity. To overcome this challenge, a pyrolyzed cellulose nanofiber paper (CNP) semiconductor structure proposed....

Progress toward the concept of "a trillion sensor universe" requires devices to become more abundant, ubiquitous, and be potentially disposable.

The ZnO nanowire/cellulose composite structure is embedded in surface substrate via two-step papermaking process. This provides mechanically...
While halide perovskite electronics are rapidly developing, they greatly limited by the inferior charge transport and poor stability. In this work, effective surface transfer doping of vapor–liquid–solid (VLS)-grown single-crystalline cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) nanowires (NWs) via molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) functionalization is achieved.

When employing conventional drop-casting method decorating nanostructures onto QCM electrode surface, observed sensor signals significantly exhibited background noise via unintentional energy dissipations. To overcome this inherent problem of depositing self-assemblies, developed an on-site...
