MATERIALS SCIENCE: Electrostatic Stitching

Parallel Stitching of 2D Materials.

Diverse parallel stitched 2D heterostructures, including metal-semiconductor, semiconductor-semiconductor, and insulator-semiconductor, are synthesized directly through selective "sowing" of aromatic molecules as the seeds in the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The methodology enables the large-scale fabrication of lateral heterostructures, which offers tremendous potential for its appl...

Parallel Stitching of Two-Dimensional Materials

Electrostatic stitching in gel-phase supported phospholipid bilayers.

We show that mixing zwitterionic lipids with up to 20% mole % cationic lipids produces gel-phase supported lipid bilayers that are morphologically free of defects detectable using noncontact mode atomic force microscopy (AFM). This contrasts with the observation of massive defects when anionic lipid was added, and also when no charged lipid was added. Infrared measurements of headgroup orientat...
