We report the electronic structure and optical absorption spectra of monolayer black phosphorus
(phosphorene) nanoribbons (PNRs) via first-principles simulations. The band gap of …

Photocatalytic activity is a feasible solution to tackle environmental pollution caused by
industrial pollutants. In this research, Ti 3 C 2 –TiO 2 composite with a unique structure was …

It is vital to have high sensitivity in gas sensors to allow the exact detection of dangerous
gases in the air and at room temperature. In this study, we used 2D MXenes and MoS 2 …

In this study, natural core-shell structure activated carbon beads (ACBs) from Litsea glutinosa
seeds were successfully produced, characterized, and applied for adsorption of methylene …

The continual public health threat posed by the emergence of novel influenza viruses necessitates
the ability to rapidly monitor infection and spread in experimental systems. To analyze …
