The flourish of nanotechnology has brought new vitality to the research and development of electrochemical sensing materials. In this work, we successfully synthesized Nano Au and Pt alloy microspheres decorated with reduced graphene oxide (RGO/nAPAMSs) by a simple, facile, and eco-friendly one-step reduction strategy for the fabrication of highly sensitive nonenzymatic HO sensing interfaces. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping (EDX mapping), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR), and X-ray diffraction spectrum (XRD) were employed to characterize RGO/nAPAMSs from a microscopic perspective. The results of cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry exhibited excellent electrochemical behaviors toward HO, with a rapid response time within 5 s, remarkable sensitivity of 1117.0 μA mM cm, wide linear range of 0.005 to 4.0 mM and lower detection limit of 0.008 μM (S/N = 3), which provide RGO/nAPAMS not only a promising prospect for the quantitative detection of HO but also a potential application in other fields of sensors. Moreover, further analysis showed the principles of the superior HO sensing performance of RGO/nAPAMSs. This discovery provides a significant contribution to future study in nonenzymatic HO sensing based on Nano Pt, Nano Au noble metal electrocatalysts.

Surface Circular Photogalvanic Effect in Tl-Pb Monolayer Alloys on Si(111) with Giant Rashba Splitting.

We have found that surface superstructures made of "monolayer alloys" of Tl and Pb on Si(111), having giant Rashba effect, produce nonreciprocal spin-polarized photocurrent via circular photogalvanic effect (CPGE) by obliquely shining circularly polarized near-infrared (IR) light. CPGE is here caused by the injection of in-plane spin into spin-split surface-state bands, which is observed only on Tl-Pb alloy layers but not on single-element Tl nor Pb layers. In the Tl-Pb monolayer alloys, despite their monatomic thickness, the magnitude of CPGE is comparable to or even larger than the cases of many other spin-split thin-film materials.

The optimized composition and precisely tailored structure configuration play critical roles in enhancing the catalytic reaction kinetics. Here we report a distinctive core@satellite strategy for designing the advanced platinum-nickel@platinum-nickel-copper-cobalt-indium high-entropy alloy nanowires (PtNi@HEA NWs) as efficient bifunctional catalysts in the proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Impressively, the PtNi@HEA NWs/C shows 19.

Albeit there is widespread application of thermally conductive polymer composites, one challenge is their typical negative temperature dependence on thermal conductivity (TDTC) due to the mismatch in thermal expansion between the polymer and fillers, creating voids at the interfaces. Inspired by the hierarchical structure of snakeskin, where rigid scales and a soft intergap manage expansion, we designed a segregated structure by coating a high-expansion high impact polystyrene (HIPS)/graphite (Gt) composite with a copper alloy. We hypothesize that the Cu alloy restricts the thermal expansion of HIPS/Gt while forming a pseudoconductive network, enhancing TDTC and thermal conductivity (TC).

Purpose: SLM 3D printing technology is one of the most widely used implant-making technologies. However, the surfaces of the implants are relatively rough, and bacteria can easily adhere to them; increasing the risk of postoperative infection. Therefore, we prepared a near-infrared photoresponsive nano-TiO coating on the surface of an SLM 3D-printed titanium alloy sheet (Ti6Al4V) via a hydrothermal method to evaluate its antibacterial properties and biocompatibility.

Revealing the structure stability and evolution of gold nanocrystals at the atomic scale is crucial to their versatile applications; however, the fundamental mechanism remains elusive due to the lack of characterizations. In this work, the structural evolution of two types of Au nanobipyramids (Au NBPs) at elevated temperatures is monitored through electron microscopy analysis, and there is a sharp distinction between their structure stability despite that they possess the same crystalline structure. Detailed material characterization reveals that the surface alloying of residual Ag with Au (customized Ag armor) can greatly inhibit the Au atom diffusion and contribute remarkably to the stability and surface-enhanced Raman scattering improvement.
