TL;DR: Electron energy-loss spectroscopy on individual tubes yielded B:N ratios of approximately 1, which is consistent with theoretical predictions of stable BN tube structures.

TL;DR: By solving the convection-diffusion equation in the frame of the moving rod, it was found that the interfacial tension force scales approximately as SR(2)gamma/muDL, where S is the area-normalized oxygen evolution rate, gamma is the liquid-vapor interfacial pressure, R is the rod radius, mu is the viscosity, D is the diffusion coefficient of oxygen, and L is the length of the rod.

TL;DR: The direct synthesis of WS2 monolayers with triangular morphologies and strong room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) is described and the structure and chemical composition of the platelet edges appear to be critical for PL enhancement.

TL;DR: In this paper, the frequency of the A1g(Γ) phonon mode monotonically decreases with the number of layers and the excitation wavelength in the visible range (488, 514 and 647 nm).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the direct synthesis of WS2 monolayers with triangular morphologies and strong room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) for flexible/transparent/low-energy optoelectronic devices.
