Article Abstract
This article investigates the analytical performance of double-, few- and multi-layer graphene upon oxidation of adenine and guanine. We observed that the sensitivity of differential pulse voltammetric response of guanine and adenine is significantly higher at few-layer graphene surface than single-layer graphene. We use glassy carbon electrode as substrate coated with graphenes. Our findings shall have profound influence on construction of graphene based genosensors.

Emergent Symmetry and Valley Chern Insulator in Twisted Double-Bilayer Graphene.

Theoretical calculations show that twisted double bilayer graphene (TDBG) under a transverse electric field develops a valley Chern number 2 at charge neutrality. Using thermodynamic and thermal activation measurements we report the experimental observation of a universal closing of the charge neutrality gap in the Hofstadter spectrum of TDBG at 1/2 magnetic flux per unit cell, in agreement with theoretical predictions for a valley Chern number 2 gap. Our theoretical analysis of the experimental data shows that the interaction energy, while larger than the flat-band bandwidth in TDBG near 1° does not alter the emergent valley symmetry or the single-particle band topology.

In this study, a molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor (MIECS) was constructed based on the combination of graphene quantum dots-gold nanoparticles (GQDs-AuNPs), molecular imprinting polymer (MIP), and electrochemical technology for the ultra-sensitive detection of 17β-estradiol (E). GQDs-AuNPs were synthesized and modified on the surface of glassy carbon electrodes (GCE). Safranine T was used as the functional monomer and E was the template molecule for self-assembly and electropolymerization, thus generating an MIP film on the electrode surface.

Salinity is one of the predominant abiotic stressors that reduce plant growth, yield, and productivity. Ameliorating salt tolerance through nanotechnology is an efficient and reliable methodology for enhancing agricultural crops yield and quality. Nanoparticles enhance plant tolerance to salinity stress by facilitating reactive oxygen species detoxification and by reducing the ionic and osmotic stress effects on plants.

The photocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide (CO) into "liquid sunshine" methanol (CHOH) using semiconductor catalysts has garnered significant attention. Increasing the number of effective electrons and regulating reaction pathways is the key to improving the activity and selectivity of CHOH. Due to the electron transport properties of semiconductor heterojunctions and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), a CoS/CoS-rGO nanocomposite was constructed and applied to the photocatalytic reduction of CO to CHOH.

A theoretical investigation of spin-orbit coupling effect on magnetotransport of a monolayer graphene system having the geometry of Aharonov-Bohm interferometer is presented. The spin-orbit interaction is considered in the form of Rashba spin-orbit (RSO) coupling. The problem is studied within atomistic tight-binding approximation in combination with non-equilibrium Green's functions formalism.
