Transparent Biomaterial-Based Nonvolatile Bioelectronic Memory with Excellent Endurance.

With the recent upsurge of data-driven technology, the demand for storage elements has pushed the researchers to explore design of nobel nonvolatile memory devices with diverse functionalities. However, the management of electronic waste has become a prominent challenge due to the rapid growth of the solid-state electronics industry. Biomaterial-based Resistive Random Access Memory (Bio-RRAM) has become one of the most promising devices that can augment the quality of memory devices because of their environmentally benign behavior, biocompatible, nontoxic, transient, transferable, flexible, dissolvable, and biodegradable nature.

Exploring the efficient antimicrobial applications of a novel supramolecular Hg(ii)-metallogel derived from succinic acid acting as a low molecular weight gelator.

A novel supramolecular metallogel, termed Hg-SA, was synthesized using succinic acid (SA) as a low molecular weight gelator in a DMF solvent under standard conditions. The mechanical properties of the Hg-SA metallogel were evaluated through rheological tests, specifically focusing on the angular frequency and strain sweep measurements. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) results revealed the rod-like network structure of Hg-SA, while energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) elemental mapping confirmed its composition.
