We describe a numerical model to predict the rheology of two-dimensional dry foams. The model accurately describes soap film curvature and viscous friction with the walls, and includes the transport of surfactant within the films and across the vertices where films meet. It accommodates the changes in foam topology that occur when a foam flows and, in particular, accurately represents the relaxation of the foam following a topological change. The model is validated against experimental data, allowing the prediction of elastic and viscous parameters associated with different surfactant solutions.

This study presents a hybrid microfiltration technology designed for high-performance lead (Pb(II)) remediation, especially from aqueous solutions with high Pb(II) concentrations, by utilizing two-dimensional (2D) TiCT-MXene layers deposited on dry mycelium membranes. The hybrid TiCT-MXene/mycelium (MyMX) membranes were fabricated via a single-step electrochemical deposition (ECD) technique, which enabled a uniform coating of 2D TiCT-MXene onto individual hyphal fibers of a prefabricated mycelium membrane. Optimized ECD parameters for high Pb(II) uptake were identified using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.

The choices of matrices and protocols for sample deposition are critical factors, which impact each other in the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI). Previous reports on MALDI MS matrices have only compared their performances in terms of their MS signal intensities and provided optical microphotos or MALDI MS images of sample spots but typically lacked quantitative evaluation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a multivariate model to evaluate the performance of different combinations of matrices and sample protocols.

We demonstrate low energy, forming and compliance-free operation of a resistive memory obtained by the partial oxidation of a two-dimensional layered van-der-Waals semiconductor: hafnium disulfide (HfS). Semiconductor-oxide heterostructures are achieved by low temperature (<300 °C) thermal oxidation of HfS under dry conditions, carefully controlling process parameters. The resulting HfOS/HfS heterostructures are integrated between metal contacts, forming vertical crossbar devices.

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have attracted a considerable amount of interest as channel materials for future transistors. Patterning of 2D semiconductors is crucial for separating continuous monolayers into independent units. However, the state-of-the-art 2D patterning process is largely based on photolithography and high-energy plasma/RIE etching, leading to unavoidable residues and degraded device uniformity, which remains a critical challenge for the practical application of 2D electronics.

The two-dimensional interlayer space of layered materials has been highlighted due to their adsorption property, whose nanostructure in the water-immersed state is scarcely understood by experiment. Recent developments in molecular simulation have enabled researchers to investigate the interlayer structure, but water content is necessary for accurate modeling. In the present study, we proposed a theoretical method to estimate the saturated water content and adsorption selectivity of trichlorophenol and phenol in montmorillonite modified with hexadecyltrimethylammonium ions.
