The recent outbreak of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) causing COVID-19 disease spreads
rapidly in the world. Rapid and early detection of SARS-CoV-2 facilitates early intervention …

A recent outbreak of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of COVID-19, has
spread rapidly all over the world. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is another deadly …

Bulk graphene (reduced graphene oxide)-reinforced Al matrix composites with a bioinspired
nanolaminated microstructure were fabricated via a composite powder assembly approach. …

Nanolayered structures present significantly enhanced electrochemical performance by
facilitating the surface-dependent electrochemical reaction processes for supercapacitors, which…

Metals can be strengthened by adding hard reinforcements, but such strategy usually
compromises ductility and toughness. Natural nacre consists of hard and soft phases organized in …

In this study, three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical porous carbon with abundant functional
groups is produced through a very simple low-cost carbonization of Artemia cyst shells. The …

Methods used to strengthen metals generally also cause a pronounced decrease in ductility
and electrical conductivity. In this work a bioinspired strategy is applied to surmount the …

The advent of additive manufacturing (AM) offers the possibility of creating high-performance
metallic materials with unique microstructure. Ultrafine dislocation cell structure in AM …

Uniaxial compression tests were carried out on micro-pillars fabricated from nanolaminated
graphene (reduced graphene oxide, RGO)-Al composites of different RGO concentrations …

Highly efficient conductors are strongly desired because they can lead to higher working
performance and less energy consumption in their wide range applications. However, the …
