The all-solid-state lithium batteries using solid electrolytes are considered to be the new
generation of devices for energy storage. Recent advances in this kind of rechargeable batteries …

We have developed a nanowire nanogenerator that is driven by an ultrasonic wave to
produce continuous direct-current output. The nanogenerator was fabricated with vertically …

Utilizing the coupled piezoelectric and semiconducting dual properties of ZnO, we demonstrate
a piezoelectric field effect transistor (PE-FET) that is composed of a ZnO nanowire (NW) (…

Molybdenum disulphide is a layered transition metal dichalcogenide that has recently
raised considerable interest due to its unique semiconducting and opto-electronic properties. …

Infection by HIV-1 involves the fusion of viral and cellular membranes with subsequent
transfer of viral genetic material into the cell. The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein that mediates …

Metal oxide gas sensors are predominant solid-state gas detecting devices for domestic,
