The progress of spontaneous energy generation from ubiquitous moisture is hindered the low output current and intermittent operating voltage moisture-electric generators. Herein a novel efficient ionic hydrogel generator (IHMEG) developed by rational combination poly(vinyl alcohol), phytic acid, glycerol-water binary solvent. Thanks to synergistic effect notable moisture-absorption capability fast ion transport in network, single IHMEG unit 0.25 cm2 can continuously generate direct-current...
Abstract Fiber‐based flexible thermoelectric energy generators are 3D deformable, lightweight, and desirable for applications in large‐area waste heat recovery, as suppliers wearable or mobile electronic systems which large mechanical deformations, high conversion efficiency, electrical stability greatly demanded. These devices can be manufactured at low room temperature under ambient conditions by established industrial processes, offering cost‐effective reliable products mass quantity....
Abstract Despite of the rapid development and demonstrations wearable energy harvesting devices, their industrial applications are limited by lack highly flexible, scalable, facile fabrication methods. Especially, few studies have combined theoretical analysis with relevant experimental verification. To this end, a flexible large‐area textile‐based hybrid nanogenerator integrated net‐shaped nanofiber reinforced piezoelectric unit triboelectric microstructured surface configuration is...
Piezoelectric catalysis (piezocatalysis) is a physical/chemical process that utilizes piezoelectric potential for accelerating chemical reactions, in which ubiquitous mechanical energies nature are used various applications, e.g., treating organic water pollutants. Despite the high efficiency achieved by piezocatalytic powders, particles tend to diffuse systems and hard be separated, thus causing secondary pollution. Herein, free‐standing foam designed fabricated, composed of BaTiO 3...

An effective, mild, salt-free and in situ substrate growth approach to MOFs was developed using copper foil. Such a simple afforded microfilm with proton-conducting properties under stable conditions. Copper employed not only allow for large arrays of MOFs, but also the root crystals attach close enough form dense film. The thickness films order microns. proton conductivity increased from ∼10−6 (disk-shaped pellet powder) as high ∼10−4 S cm−1 (microfilm). σ value is 6.9 × 10−4 after being...
Wearable thermoelectric generators are solid‐state devices that produce electric energy by harvesting thermal from human body or environments. They normally work at relatively mild temperatures suitable for human, being light, compact, deformable to the 3D surface, safe and environment, comfortable, durable, cost‐effective. As potential power suppliers wearable mobile microelectronic systems, they have attracted considerable attention. Herein, a critical overview review of state‐of‐the‐art...
As an important proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin-6 (IL-6) possesses great influence in the treatment of several diseases (e.g. acute pancreatitis and infections) regulation immune, thus it's necessary to develop a simple sensitive method for IL-6 detection. In this work, by preparing defect‑engineered graphene nanoribbons (EGr) as substrate material sensor using 1,2-diaminobenzene functional monomer, molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) voltammetric was successfully designed via...

Oxide clusters grow spontaneously on a liquid-gallium surface exposed to oxygen at room temperature. Clusters diffuse and aggregate form larger with fractal dimension ${\mathit{d}}_{\mathit{f}}$ of \ensuremath{\sim}1.5. The total number the weighted average cluster size do not exhibit power-law dependence time, while typical linear exhibits ${\mathit{t}}^{1/2}$ time dependence. exponent appears be consistent Binder's prediction for phase separation two-dimensional binary fluid mixture.
