Chemical and Resistive Switching Properties of Extract-Carboxymethyl Cellulose Composite: A Potential Active Layer for Biodegradable Memory Devices.

Biodegradable electronic devices play a crucial role in addressing the escalating issue of electronic waste accumulation, which poses significant environmental threats. In this study, we explore the utilization of a methanol-based extract of the plant blended with a carboxymethyl cellulose biopolymer to produce a biodegradable and environmentally friendly functional material for a resistive switching memory system using silver and tungsten electrodes. Our analyses revealed that these two materials chemically interact to generate a perfect composite with near semiconducting optical bandgap (4.

Electronic structure and magnetic behaviors of exfoliated MoS nanosheets.

The correlation of electronic structure and magnetic behaviors of layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS) nanosheets, mechanically exfoliated from pristine hexagonal crystal (2H-MoS) have been studied. Raman spectra show the energy difference (ΔE) between two Raman peaks A and [Formula: see text] was about 20.2 cm, indicating the formation of mono-/bi-layered MoS nanosheets as obtained after mechanical exfoliation from pristine 2H-MoS .
