TL;DR: It is shown that WS2 and MoS2 effectively reinforce polymers, whereas WS2/carbon nanotube hybrid films have high conductivity, leading to promising thermoelectric properties.

TL;DR: A method to disperse and exfoliate graphite to give graphene suspended in water-surfactant solutions and suggests the flakes to be largely free of defects and oxides, although X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows evidence of a small oxide population.

TL;DR: It is shown that high-shear mixing of graphite in suitable stabilizing liquids results in large-scale exfoliation to give dispersions of graphene nanosheets in liquid volumes from hundreds of millilitres up to hundreds of litres and beyond.

TL;DR: This book aims to provide a history of Tibet and its people from 1989 to 2002, a period chosen in order to explore its roots as well as specific cases up to and including the year in which descriptions of Tibetans in the region began to circulate.

TL;DR: The resultant controllability of concentration, size and thickness facilitates the preparation of dispersions with pre-determined properties such as high monolayer-content, leading to first measurement of A-exciton MoS2 luminescence in liquid suspensions.
