In this report, hierarchical ZnO nano- and microstructures were directly grown for the first time on a bacterial cellulose substrate and on two additional different papers by hydrothermal synthesis without any surface modification layer. Compactness and smoothness of the substrates are two important parameters that allow the growth of oriented structures.

The transfer of large-area, continuous, chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown graphene without introducing defects remains a challenge for fabricating graphene-based electronics. Polymer thin films are commonly used as supports for transferring graphene, but they typically require thermal annealing before transfer. However, little work has been done to thoroughly investigate how thermal annealing affects the polymer/graphene thin film when directly annealed on the growth substrate.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made significant strides by imitating biological neurons and synapses through simplified models, yet incomplete neuron functionalities can limit performance and energy efficiency in handling complex tasks. Biological neurons process input signals nonlinearly, utilizing dendrites to process spatial-temporal information. This study demonstrates the compact artificial dendrite device employing memristors based on bismuth oxyselenide (BiOSe).

Despite its importance in pathogenesis, the hematogenous dissemination pathway of is still largely uncharacterized. To probe the molecular details of transendothelial migration more easily, we studied this process using cultured primary or telomerase-immortalized human microvascular endothelial cells in a medium that maintains both the human cells and the spirochetes. In -infected monolayers, we observed ~55% of wild-type spirochetes crossing the monolayer.

The interfacial adhesion between transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and the growth substrate significantly influences the employment of flakes in various applications. Most previous studies have focused on MoS and graphene, particularly their interaction with SiO/Si substrates. In this work, the adhesion strength of CVD-grown bilayer WS is directly measured using the nano scratch technique on three different substrates-Sapphire, SiO/Si, and fused quartz.

Nevertheless, its practical use is limited by poor electrochemical performance and complicated electrode fabrication processes. To address these issues, we propose a new anode design comprising an intermediate NiO nanoarray layer and a carbon coating layer grown directly on a three-dimensional (3D) conductive nickel foam substrate, designated as C@NiO@Ni foam.
