Biopotential signals are recorded mostly by using sticky, pre-gelled electrodes, which not ideal for wearable, point-of-care monitoring where the usability of personalized medical device depends critically on level comfort and wearability electrodes. We report a fully-wearable garment mobile cardiac biopotentials from wrists or neck with minimum restriction to regular clothing habits. The wearable prototype is based elastic bands graphene functionalized, textile electrodes battery-powered,...
Although many examples of mechanically flexible crystals are currently known, their utility in all-flexible devices is not yet adequately demonstrated, despite immense potential for fabricating high performance devices. Here, we report two alkylated diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) semiconducting single crystals, one which displays impressive elastic mechanical flexibility whilst the other brittle. Using crystal structures and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, show that methylated...
In line with current research goals involving water splitting for hydrogen production, this work aims to develop a noble-metal-free electrocatalyst superior evolution reaction (HER). A single-step interfacial activation of Ti3C2Tx MXene layers was employed by uniformly growing embedded WS2 two-dimensional (2D) nanopetal-like sheets through facile solvothermal method. We exploited the interactions between nanopetals and nanolayers enhance HER performance. much safer method adopted synthesize...
A seventh blind test of crystal structure prediction was organized by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre featuring seven target systems varying complexity: a silicon and iodine-containing molecule, copper coordination complex, near-rigid cocrystal, polymorphic small agrochemical, highly flexible drug candidate, morpholine salt. In this first two parts focusing on generation methods, many (CSP) methods performed well for but agrochemical compound, successfully reproducing...
A seventh blind test of crystal structure prediction has been organized by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre. The results are presented in two parts, with this second part focusing on methods for ranking structures order stability. exercise involved standardized sets seeded from a range generation methods. Participants 22 groups applied several periodic DFT-D methods, machine learned potentials, force fields derived empirical data or quantum chemical calculations, and various...
Mechanochemical coupling reactions are typically single-site events that thermally driven, require an inert atmosphere, and kinetically slow under ball milling conditions. Here, we demonstrate the rapid 4-fold single-pot mechanochemical C–N of tetrabromopyrene phenothiazine leading to a novel pyrene-phenothiazine (PYR–PTZ) molecule is shown be effective hole-transport material (HTM) in perovskite solar cell (PSC). When compared previously reported reactions, mechanosynthesis PYR–PTZ achieved...
Color polymorphism is a rare but intriguing phenomenon, crucial for fundamental understanding and with broad implications number of industries. We report the facile preparation six color polymorphs (forms I–VI) sulfonamide. All forms have been structurally characterized, studies attribute to molecular rotations about C═N–C–C dihedral (torsion 1). A definite correlation between wavelength value torsion 1 has established, indicating tendency red-shift decrease in values 1. Remarkable...

Most current techniques for analyzing amino acids require substantial instrumentation and significant sample preprocessing. In this study, we designed, fabricated, tested a scalable diode-based microdevice that allows direct sensing of acids. The device is based on modulation-doped GaAs heterostructure with Schottky contact one side. relatively high mobility small dielectric constant are naturally helpful in problem. We also paid attention to proper etching procedure allowing modification...
Without a doubt, teachers play vital role in building the students' educational foundation and critical thinking behavior, which could be quantified through various factors, especially if taught course falls within category of Science, Technology, Engineering Mathematics (STEM).
