RESUMO

Hierarchical porous nanowire-like MoS2/CoNiO2 nanohybrids were synthesized via the hydrothermal process. CoNiO2 nanowires were selected due to the edge site, high surface/volume ratio, and superior electrochemical characteristics as the porous backbone for decoration of layered MoS2 nanoflakes to construct innovative structure hierarchical three-dimensional (3D) porous NWs MoS2/CoNiO2 hybrids with excellent charge accumulation and efficient ion transport capabilities. Physicochemical analyses were conducted on the developed hybrid composite, revealing conclusive evidence that the CoNiO2 nanowires have been securely anchored onto the surface of the MoS2 nanoflake array. The electrochemical results strongly proved the benefit of the hierarchical 3D porous MoS2/CoNiO2 hybrid structure for the charge storage kinetics. The synergistic characteristics arising from the MoS2/CoNiO2 composite yielded a notably high specific capacitance of 1340 F/g at a current density of 0.5 A/g. Furthermore, the material exhibited sustained cycling stability, retaining 95.6% of its initial capacitance after 10 000 long cycles. The asymmetric device comprising porous MoS2/CoNiO2//activated carbon encompassed outstanding energy density (93.02 Wh/kg at 0.85 kW/kg) and cycling stability (94.1% capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles). Additionally, the successful illumination of light-emitting diodes underscores the significant potential of the synthesized MoS2/CoNiO2 (2D/1D) hybrid for practical high-energy storage applications.

RESUMO

This study examines the effects of hybrid nanoparticles made of NiO@rGO (reduced graphene oxide) and NiO@CNT (carbon nanotubes) on PCDTBT and PCBM active layers in glass/ITO/HTL/active-layer/LiF/Al structured bulk heterojunction (BHJ) polymer solar cells (PSCs) and X-ray photodetectors. These hybrid nanoparticles were used to create BHJ solar cells and photodetectors, and microscopic research was conducted to determine how they affect the structure of the devices. The findings show that compared to conventional matrices, the active layers with NiO@rGO and NiO@CNT incorporation have increased the charge carrier capacities and exciton dissociation properties. In order to assess their impact on the characteristics of charge transport, various weight ratios of these hybrid nanoparticles dispersed in polymer junctions are being investigated. Notably, compared to the pure PCDTBT:PCBM active layer (power conversion efficiency (PCE) = 4.35%), the NiO@CNT device has the highest PCE = 6.42% which, among the tested configurations, demonstrates its superior performance in converting sunlight into electricity. Among the tested X-ray detector materials, "NiO@CNT" achieves the best performance with a sensitivity of 1.92 mA Gy-1 cm-2. Through improved interfacial behaviors and effective charge transport, this work highlights the potential of these cutting-edge hybrid nanoparticles to enhance the performance of organic electronic devices.

RESUMO

It is crucial for early stage medical diagnostics to identify disease biomarkers at ultralow concentrations. A wide range of analytes can be identified using low-dimensional materials to build highly sensitive, targeted, label-free, field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors. Two-dimensional (2D) materials are preferable for high-performance biosensing because of their dramatic change in resistivity upon analyte adsorption or biomarker detection, tunable electronic properties, high surface activities, adequate stability, and layer-dependent semiconducting properties. We give a succinct overview of interesting applications for protein sensing with various architectural styles, such as 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)-based FETs that include carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene (Gr), reduced graphene oxide (rGr), 2D transition-metal carbides (MXene), and Gr/MXene heterostructures. Because it might enable individuals to perform better, this review will be an important contribution to the field of medical science. These achievements demonstrate point-of-care diagnostics' abilities to detect biomarkers at ultrahigh performance levels. A summary of the present opportunities and challenges appears in the conclusion.

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (2D-TMDCs) with various physical characteristics have attracted significant interest from the scientific and industrial worlds in the years following Moore's law. The p-n junction is one of the earliest electrical components to be utilized in electronics and optoelectronics, and modern research on 2D materials has renewed interest in it. In this regard, device preparation and application have evolved substantially in this decade. 2D TMDCs provide unprecedented flexibility in the construction of innovative p-n junction device designs, which is not achievable with traditional bulk semiconductors. It has been investigated using 2D TMDCs for various junctions, including homojunctions, heterojunctions, P-I-N junctions, and broken gap junctions.

This review comprehensively details the various 2D-based p-n junction geometries investigated with an emphasis on 2D junctions. We investigated the 2D p-n junctions utilized in current rectifiers and photodetectors. To make a comparison of various devices easier, important optoelectronic and electronic features are presented. We thoroughly assessed the review's prospects and challenges for this emerging field of study. This study will serve as a roadmap for more real-world photodetection technology applications.

RESUMO

In future solar cell technologies, the thermodynamic Shockley-Queisser limit for solar-to-current conversion in traditional p-n junctions could potentially be overcome with a bulk photovoltaic effect by creating an inversion broken symmetry in piezoelectric or ferroelectric materials. Here, we unveiled mechanical distortion-induced bulk photovoltaic behavior in a two-dimensional (2D) material, MoTe2, caused by the phase transition and broken inversion symmetry in MoTe2. The phase transition from single-crystalline semiconducting 2H-MoTe2 to semimetallic 1T'-MoTe2 was confirmed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We used a micrometer-scale system to measure the absorption of energy, which reduced from 800 to 63 meV during phase transformation from hexagonal to distorted octahedral and revealed a smaller bandgap semimetallic behavior. Experimentally, a large bulk photovoltaic response is anticipated with the maximum photovoltage VOC = 16 mV and a positive signal of the ISC = 60 µA (400 nm, 90.4 Wcm-2) in the absence of an external electric field. The maximum values of both R and EQE were found to be 98 mAW-1 and 30%, respectively. Our findings are distinctive features of the photocurrent responses caused by in-plane polarity and its potential from a wide pool of established TMD-based nanomaterials and a cutting-edge approach to optimize the efficiency in converting photons-to-electricity for power harvesting optoelectronics devices.

RESUMO

The successful deployment of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) requires high-performance sustainable and cost-effective anode materials having a high current density. In this regard, sodium disulphide (NiS2) has been prepared as a composite with activated carbon (C) using a facile hydrothermal synthesis route in the past. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the as-prepared NiS2/C composite material shows well-defined diffraction peaks of NiS2. Most carbonaceous materials are amorphous, and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) study shows that the surface area is close to 148 m2 g-1. At a current density of 50 mA g-1, the NiS2/C composite exhibits a high capacity of 480 mA h g-1 during the initial cycle, which subsequently decreases to 333 mA h g-1 after the completion of the 100th cycle. The NiS2/C composite electrode provides an exceptional rate capability by delivering a capacity of 270 mA h g-1 at a high current density of 2000 mA g-1, suggesting the suitability of the NiS2/C composite for SIBs. Ex situ X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analyses at the Ni K-edge have been used to examine the type of chemical bonding present in the anode and also how it changes during electrochemical redox cycling. The understanding of the sodium storage mechanism is improved by the favorable results, which also offer insights for developing high-performance electrode materials for rechargeable SIBs.

RESUMO

The present study aimed to fabricate a novel polymeric spongy composite to enhance skin regeneration composed of Nystatin (antifungal agent) and Silver Nanoparticles (AgNps). Different formulations (F1-F8) were developed & characterized by using various analytical techniques. AgNps synthesized by chemical reduction method showed spherical morphology 2 µm in size showed by SEM and XRD. A fine porous structure of gel embedded with AgNps having an amorphous structure with 10 % crystallinity due to AgNps was found. IR spectra revealed no chemical interaction between polymers and Nystatin. An increase in thermal stability of formulation was observed till 700 â„ƒ analyzed by Differential Scanning Calorimetry. Cytotoxic analysis on L929 mouse skin fibroblast cells showed a decrease in cell viability as Ag concentration increased (inactivating Fibroblast and keratinocytes) while 10 mg composition was found safest concentration (94%). Optimized formulation (F2) presented in-vitro drug release up to 90.59% ± 0.76 at pH 7.4, swelling studies (87.5% ± 0.57), water retention (26.60 ± 0.34), pH (5.31 ± 0.03). In the animal burn model, the group that received CHG/Ag/Nystatin healed the wound significantly (p < 0.05). These results suggested that optimized carrier can be used for other anti-fungal drugs facilitating the early healing of the wound.

RESUMO

In the pursuit of developing superior energy storage devices, an integrated approach has been advocated to harness the desirable features of both batteries and supercapacitors, particularly their high energy density, and high-power density. Consequently, the emergence of hybrid supercapacitors has become a subject of increasing interest, as they offer the potential to merge the complementary attributes of these two technologies into a single device, thereby surpassing the limitations of conventional energy storage systems. In this context the Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), consisting of metal centers and organic linkers, have emerged as highly trending materials for energy storage by virtue of their high porosity. Here, we investigate the electrochemical performance of cobalt-pyridine-3,5-di-carboxylate-MOF (Co-PDC-MOF) and cobalt-1,2,3,4-cyclopentane tetra-carboxylate-MOF (Co-CPTC-MOF). In the setup involving the analysis of Co-PDC-MOF and Co-CPTC-MOF materials, a configuration comprising three electrodes was utilized. Drawing upon the promising initial properties of CPTC, a battery device was fabricated, comprising Co-CPTC-MOF, and activated carbon (AC) electrodes. Retaining a reversible capacity of 97% the device showcased impressive energy and power density of 20.7 W h g-1 and 2608.5 W kg-1, respectively. Dunn's model was employed, to gain deeper insights into the capacitive and diffusive contributions of the device.

RESUMO

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have been explored in recent years to utilize in electronics due to their remarkable properties. This study reports the enhanced energy storage performance of tungsten disulfide (WS2) by introducing the conductive interfacial layer of Ag between the substrate and active material (WS2). The interfacial layers and WS2 were deposited through a binder free method of magnetron sputtering and three different prepared samples (WS2 and Ag-WS2) were scrutinize via electrochemical measurements. A hybrid supercapacitor was fabricated using Ag-WS2 and activated carbon (AC) since Ag-WS2 was observed to be the most proficient of all three samples. The Ag-WS2//AC devices have attained a specific capacity (Qs) of 224 C g-1, while delivering the maximum specific energy (Es) and specific power (Ps) of 50 W h kg-1 and 4003 W kg-1, respectively. The device was found to be stable enough as it retains 89% capacity and 97% coulombic efficiency after 1000 cycles. Additionally, the capacitive and diffusive currents were obtained through Dunn's model to observe the underlying charging phenomenon at each scan rate.

RESUMO

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) with high porosity and highly tunable physical/chemical properties can serve as heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 photoreduction, but the application is hindered by the large band gap (Eg) and insufficient ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT). In this study, a simple one-pot solvothermal strategy is proposed to prepare an amino-functionalized MOF (aU(Zr/In)) featuring an amino-functionalizing ligand linker and In-doped Zr-oxo clusters, which enables efficient CO2 reduction driven with visible light. The amino functionalization leads to a significant reduction of Eg as well as a charge redistribution of the framework, allowing the absorption of visible light and the efficient separation of photogenerated carriers. Furthermore, the incorporation of In not only promotes the LMCT process by creating oxygen vacancies in Zr-oxo clusters, but also greatly lowers the energy barrier of the intermediates for CO2-to-CO conversion. With the synergistic effects of the amino groups and the In dopants, the optimized aU(Zr/In) exhibits a CO production rate of 37.58 ± 1.06 µmol g-1 h-1, outperforming the isostructural University of Oslo-66- and Material of Institute Lavoisier-125-based photocatalysts. Our work demonstrates the potential of modifying MOFs with ligands and heteroatom dopants in metal-oxo clusters for solar energy conversion.

RESUMO

Metal-organic frameworks are a complex of metal nodes and organic ligands that have attracted widespread interest in technological applications owing to their diverse characteristics. Bi-linker MOFs can prove to be more conductive and efficient than the mono-linker MOFs, however, they have been investigated less often. In this current study two distinct organic ligands i.e., 1,2,4,5-benzene-tetra-carboxylic acid and pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid were used to synthesize a bi-linker nickel MOF. The obtained Ni-P-H MOF having a unique construction was examined for its structural, morphological, and electrochemical properties. To the best of our knowledge, for the first time its potential use was specifically explored as a component in hybrid supercapacitors, as it has not been previously reported for such applications. In standard three-electrode assembly, the electrochemical properties of the Ni-P-H MOF were examined, followed by the fabrication of a Ni-P-H MOF hybrid supercapacitor with activated carbon. This hybridization results in a device with both high energy and power density, making it suitable for a variety of practical applications. To further understand the behavior of this hybrid supercapacitor, a semi-empirical technique was implemented employing Dunn's model. This model allows for the extraction of regression parameters and the quantification of the diffusive/capacitive contributions of the two-cell assembly. Overall, the combination of Ni-PMA-H2pdc MOF//activated carbon in a hybrid supercapacitor holds great potential for advancements in energy storage technology.

RESUMO

2D materials with dangling-bond-free surfaces and atomically thin layers have been shown to be capable of being incorporated into flexible electronic devices. The electronic and optical properties of 2D materials can be tuned or controlled in other ways by using the intriguing strain engineering method. The latest and encouraging techniques in regard to creating flexible 2D nanoelectronics are condensed in this review. These techniques have the potential to be used in a wider range of applications in the near and long term. It is possible to use ultrathin 2D materials (graphene, BP, WTe2 , VSe2 etc.) and 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (2D TMDs) in order to enable the electrical behavior of the devices to be studied. A category of materials is produced on smaller scales by exfoliating bulk materials, whereas chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and epitaxial growth are employed on larger scales. This overview highlights two distinct requirements, which include from a single semiconductor or with van der Waals heterostructures of various nanomaterials. They include where strain must be avoided and where it is required, such as solutions to produce strain-insensitive devices, and such as pressure-sensitive outcomes, respectively. Finally, points-of-view about the current difficulties and possibilities in regard to using 2D materials in flexible electronics are provided.

RESUMO

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as intriguing porous materials with diverse potential applications. Herein, we synthesized a copper-based MOF (MOF-199) and investigated its use in energy storage applications. Methods were adapted to intensify the electrochemical characteristics of MOF-199 by preparing composites with graphene and polyaniline (PANI). The specific capacity of the synthesized MOF in a three-electrode assembly was significantly enhanced from 88 C g-1 to 475 C g-1 and 766 C g-1 with the addition of graphene and polyaniline (PANI), respectively. Due to the superior performance of (MOF-199)/PANI, a hybrid supercapacitor was fabricated with the structure of (MOF-199)/PANI//activated carbon, which displayed an excellent maximum energy and power density of 64 W h kg-1 and 7200 W kg-1, respectively. The hybrid device exhibited an appreciable capacity retention of 92% after 1000 charge-discharge cycles. Moreover, using Dunn's model, the capacitive and diffusive contributions as well as the k 1 and k 2 currents of the fabricated device were calculated, validating the hybrid nature of the supercapattery device. The current studies showed that MOF-199 exhibits promising electrochemical features and can be considered as potential electrode material for hybrid energy storage devices.

RESUMO

Two-dimensional (2D) layered semiconductors are appealing materials for high-specific-power photovoltaic systems due to their unique optoelectronic properties. The 2D materials can be naturally thin, and their properties can be altered in a variety of ways. Therefore, these materials may be used to develop high-performance opto-spintronic and photovoltaic devices. The most recent and promising strategies were used to induce circular photo-galvanic effects (CPGEs) in 2D TMD materials with broken inversion symmetry. The majority of quantum devices were manufactured by mechanical exfoliation to investigate the electrical behavior of ultrathin 2D materials. The investigation of CPGEs in 2D materials could enable the exploration of spin-polarized optoelectronics to produce more energy-efficient computing systems. The current research on nanomaterial-based materials paves the way for developing materials to store, manipulate, and transmit information with better performance. Finally, this study concludes by summarizing the current challenges and prospects.

RESUMO

The piezo-phototronic effect shows promise with regards to improving the performance of 2D semiconductor-based flexible optoelectronics, which will potentially open up new opportunities in the electronics field. Mechanical exfoliation and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) influence the piezo-phototronic effect on a transparent, ultrasensitive, and flexible van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure, which allows the use of intrinsic semiconductors, such as 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD). The latest and most promising 2D TMD-based photodetectors and piezo-phototronic devices are discussed in this review article. As a result, it is possible to make flexible piezo-phototronic photodetectors, self-powered sensors, and higher strain tolerance wearable and implantable electronics for health monitoring and generation of piezoelectricity using just a single semiconductor or vdW heterostructures of various nanomaterials. A comparison is also made between the functionality and distinctive properties of 2D flexible electronic devices with a range of applications made from 2D TMDs materials. The current state of the research about 2D TMDs can be applied in a variety of ways in order to aid in the development of new types of nanoscale optoelectronic devices. Last, it summarizes the problems that are currently being faced, along with potential solutions and future prospects.

RESUMO

Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) heterostructured transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) open up new possibilities for a wide range of optoelectronic applications. Interlayer couplings are responsible for several fascinating physics phenomena, which are in addition to the multifunctionalities that have been discovered in the field of optoelectronics. These couplings can influence the overall charge, or the energy transfer processes via stacking, separation, and dielectric angles. This focused review article summarizes the most recent and promising strategies for interlayer exciton emission in 2D or integrated perovskites and TMD heterostructures. These types of devices require a thorough comprehension and effective control of interlayer couplings in order to realize their functionalities and improve performance, which is demonstrated in this article with the energy or charge transfer mechanisms in the individual devices. An ideal platform for examining the interlayer coupling and the related physical processes is provided by a summary of the recent research findings in 2D perovskites and TMDs. Furthermore, it would encourage more investigation into the comprehension and regulation of excitonic effects and the related optoelectronic applications in vdW heterostructures over a broad spectral response range. Finally, the current challenges and prospects are summarized in this paper.

RESUMO

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) van der Waals (vdW) 1D heterostructures are recently synthesized from 2D nanosheets, which open up new opportunities for potential applications in electronic and optoelectronic devices. The most recent and promising strategies in regards to forming 1D TMDs nanotubes (NTs) or nanoscrolls (NSs) in this review article as well as their heterostructures that are produced from 2D TMDs are summarized. In order to improve the functionality of ultrathin 1D TMDs that are coaxially combined with boron nitride nanotubes and single-walled carbon nanotubes. 1D heterostructured devices perform better than 2D TMD nanosheets when the two devices are compared. The photovoltaic effect in WS2 or MoS2 NTs without a junction may exceed the Shockley-Queisser limit for the above-band-gap photovoltage generation. Photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution is accelerated when monolayer WS2 or MoS2 NSs are incorporated into a heterojunction. In addition, the photovoltaic performance of the WSe2 /MoS2  NSs junction is superior to that of the performance of MoS2 NSs. The summary of the current research about 1D TMDs can be used in a variety of ways, which assists in the development of new types of nanoscale optoelectronic devices. Finally, it also summarizes the current challenges and prospects.

RESUMO

Transparent semiconductor oxides with two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures have been extensively studied as new materials for thin-film transistors and photosensors due to their remarkable photovoltaic characteristics, making them useful for newly developed optoelectronics. Here we demonstrate the fabrication and characterization of an ITO/n-IGZO/p-GeSe transparent selective wavelength photodetector. The wavelength-dependent photovoltaic behavior of the n-IGZO/p-GeSe heterostructure under UV-Visible laser light shifts the I-V curves down with positive Voc and negative Isc values of about 0.12 V and -49 nA and 0.09 V and -17 nA, respectively. Interestingly, when an NIR laser irradiated the device, the I-V curves shifted up with negative Voc and positive Isc values of about -0.11 V and 45 nA, respectively. This behavior is attributed to the free carrier concentration induced by photogenerated carriers across the device at different points that varied with the wavelength-dependent photon absorption. Consequently, the direction of the electric field polarity across the junction can be flipped. This study demonstrates a zero-bias near-infrared (NIR) photodetector with a high photoresponsivity of 538.9 mA W-1, a fast rise time of 25.2 ms, and a decay time of 25.08 ms. Furthermore, we observed a detectivity (D) of 8.4 × 109 Jones, a normalized photocurrent to dark current ratio (NPDR) of 2.8 × 1010 W-1, and a noise equivalent power (NEP) of 2.2 × 10-14 W Hz-1/2. Our strategy opens alternative possibilities for scalable, low-cost, multifunctional transparent near-infrared photosensors with selective wavelength photodetection.
