Facile Preparation of Three-Dimensional Cubic MnSe/CNTs and Their Application in Aqueous Copper Ion Batteries.

Transition metal sulfide compounds with high theoretical specific capacity and excellent electronic conductivity that can be used as cathode materials for secondary batteries attract great research interest in the field of electrochemical energy storage. Among these materials, MnSe garners significant interest from researchers due to its unique three-dimensional cubic structure and inherent stability. However, according to the relevant literature, the performance and cycle life of MnSe are not yet satisfactory.

Interface Investigation on SiGe/Si Multilayer Structures: Influence of Different Epitaxial Process Conditions.

SiGe/Si multilayer is the core structure of the active area of gate-all-around field-effect transistors and semiconductor quantum computing devices. In this paper, high-quality SiGe/Si multilayers have been grown by a reduced-pressure chemical vapor deposition system. The effects of temperature, pressure, interface processing (dichlorosilane (SiHCl, DCS) and hydrogen chloride (HCl)) on improving the transition thickness of SiGe to Si interfaces were investigated.

Undoped Strained Ge Quantum Well with Ultrahigh Mobility of Two Million.

We develop a method to fabricate an undoped Ge quantum well (QW) under a 32 nm relaxed SiGe shallow barrier. The bottom barrier contains SiGe (650 °C) and SiGe (800 °C) such that variation of Ge content forms a sharp interface that can suppress the threading dislocation density (TDD) penetrating into the undoped Ge quantum well. The SiGe barrier introduces enough in-plane parallel strain (ε strain -0.

Hypoosmotic stress induced tissue-specific immune responses of yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus) revealed by transcriptomic analysis.

Salinity is a limiting factor for many marine organisms, including fishes. The shift in the ambient salinity can cause osmotic stress and arouse immune responses in fish. In this study, yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus), a euryhaline marine teleost, was used to investigate immune responses of different tissues (gill, liver, and muscle) under hypoosmotic stress.
