Here, we report a general and facile method for effective layer-by-layer exfoliation of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) graphite in water by using protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA) to produce single-layer nanosheets, which cannot be achieved other commonly used bio- synthetic polymers. Besides serving as an exfoliating agent, BSA can also function strong stabilizing agent against reaggregation nanosheets greatly improving their biocompatibility biomedical applications. With...

Abstract Simultaneous implementation of high signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) but low crosstalk is great importance for weak surface electromyography (sEMG) signals when precisely driving a prosthesis to perform sophisticated activities. However, due gaps with the curved skin during muscle contraction, many electrodes have poor compliance and suffer from bioelectrical impedance. This causes serious noise error in signals, especially low‐level contractions. Here, design compliant electrode based...
