The carbonized Kimwipes® (CK) interlayer has been found to be a modulable, low-cost hierarchical interlayer for Li-S cells, leading to a high discharge capacity with superior cycling stability and rate performance. This new interlayer is designed to allow controllable thickness for analyzing the polysulfide interception mechanism within the interlayer architecture.

Light-induced interlayer ultrafast charge transfer in 2D heterostructures provides a new platform for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications. The charge separation process is generally hypothesized to be dependent on the interlayer stackings and interactions, however, the quantitative characteristic and detailed mechanism remain elusive. Here, a systematical study on the interlayer charge...

We study interlayer transport in double-layered (mmm) quantum Hall liquids in the weak tunneling limit, in particular the effects of lead geometry on the I-V characteristics of interlayer tunneling. We proposed several practical ways to study experimentally the novel interlayer transport properties in the double-layered (mmm) quantum Hall liquids. Some concrete predictions on the DC characteris...

Study on the interlayer has developed associated with in-depth exploration and development of oil fields, which is an indispensable part to characterize reservoir heterogeneity. This study relates to a comprehensive research method of interlayer in rhythmic layering in continental low permeability reservoirs. During the process of waterflooding development, distribution characteristics of inter...

In this article, we demonstrate the magneto-mechanic behavior in a fluid environment of perpendicularly magnetized microdiscs with antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling. When suspended in a fluid and under the influence of a simple uniaxial applied magnetic field sequence, the microdiscs mechanically rotate to access the magnetic saturation processes that are either that of the easy axis, hard ...

Zn-Cr layered double hydroxides (LDHs) intercalated with inorganic anions (CO3, Cl, SO4 and NO3) were synthesized by the co-precipitation method and the anion exchange process. The photocatalytic activity of the LDHs was studied by O2 evolution from aqueous solution of AgNO3 as a sacrificial agent. All the prepared LDHs showed photocatalytic activity under either UV and/or visible light irradia...

Uniformly controlling a large number of metal nanostructures with a plasmonically enhanced signal to generate quantitative optical signals and the widespread use of these structures for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based biosensing and bioimaging applications are of paramount importance but are extremely challenging. Here, we report a highly controllable, facile selective-interdiffu...

We study the Josephson-like interlayer tunneling signature of the strongly correlated nuT=1 quantum Hall phase in bilayer two-dimensional electron systems as a function of the layer separation, temperature, and interlayer charge imbalance. Our results offer strong evidence that a finite temperature phase transition separates the interlayer coherent phase from incoherent phases which lack strong...
