Journal ArticleDOI
Joining of Silver Nanomaterials at Low Temperatures: Processes, Properties, and Applications
TL;DR: The theoretical background and transition of applications from micro to nanoparticle (NP) pastes based on joining using silver filler materials and nanojoining mechanisms are elucidated, and the future outlook for joining applications with silver nanomaterials is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of oxygen vacancies in visible light activated one-dimensional iodine TiO2 photocatalysts
TL;DR: A facile and efficient way of generating oxygen vacancies in visible light activated one-dimensional iodine doped TiO2 photocatalysts was first reported in this article, where a two-step hydrothermal synthesis was used to synthesize TiO 2 nanomaterials modified by iodic acid (HIO3) as a dopant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Powered Wearable Electronics Based on Moisture Enabled Electricity Generation.
TL;DR: A new class of simple sensors themselves can generate moisture-dependent voltage that can be used to determine the ambient humidity level directly, and this new type of device is successfully used as self-powered wearable human-breathing monitors and touch pads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation of PVP coated Cu NPs and the application for low-temperature bonding
TL;DR: In this paper, the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) coated Cu NPs at a low temperature of 170 °C was used to prevent the oxidation of the nanoparticles when heated in air.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrothermal growth of free standing TiO2 nanowire membranes for photocatalytic degradation of pharmaceuticals.
TL;DR: Porous, porous TiO(2) membranes, while effective for mechanical microfiltration, can also photocatalytically degrade pharmaceuticals such as trimethoprim under UV irradiation.
