We fabricated a sandwich-like branched-polyethyleneimine (b-PEI)/TiO2/Au/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite through a biomimetic layer-by-layer co-mineralization approach, and the polymer b-PEI was believed to act as both an inducing agent for the hydrolysis of titanium bis(ammonium lactato)-dihydroxide (Ti-BALDH) and a reducing agent for the reduction of HAuCl4 in the synthetic procedure. Upon ...

Due to the noticeable structural similarity and being neighborhood in periodic table of group-IV -V elemental monolayers, whether combination elements could have stable nanosheet structures with optimistic properties has attracted great research interest. In this work, we performed first-principles simulations investigate elastic, vibrational electronic carbon nitride (CN) puckered honeycomb st...

To overcome the limitations of polymers, such as trade-off relationship between water permeance and solute rejection, well difficulty functionalization, research on nanomaterials is being actively conducted. One representative graphene, which has a two-dimensional shape chemical tunability. Graphene usually used in form graphene oxide treatment field because it advantages high functionality its...

This paper proposed analytical solutions for the buckling analysis of rectangular single-layered graphene sheets under in-plane loading on all edges simply is supported. The characteristic equations of the graphene sheets are derived and the analysis formula is based on the nonlocal Mindlin plate. This theory is considering both the small length scale effects and transverse shear deformation ef...

A universal technology for the encapsulative protection of unstable anionic species by highly stable layered metal oxide has been developed via the surface modification of a metal oxide nanosheet. The surface anchoring of (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) on exfoliated titanate nanosheet yields a novel cationic metal oxide nanosheet, which can be universally used for the hybridization with...

Using and engineering amyloid as nanomaterials are blossoming trends in bionanotechnology. Here, we show our discovery of an amyloid structure, termed "amyloid-like nanosheet," formed by a key amyloid-forming segment of Alzheimer's Aβ. Combining multiple biophysical and computational approaches, we proposed a structural model for the nanosheet that is formed by stacking the amyloid fibril spine...
