A dramatic visible light photoelectrochemical sensing platform for the detection of pesticide
molecules at zero potential (versus saturated calomel electrode) was first constructed using …

Poly(lactic acid) is a biobased and compostable thermoplastic polyester that has rapidly
evolved into a competitive commodity material over the last decade. One key bottleneck in …

We report on the design, fabrication, and measurement of ultrathin film a-Si:H solar cells with
nanostructured plasmonic back contacts, which demonstrate enhanced short circuit current …

In this paper, different strategies to promote PLA crystallization were investigated with the
objective of increasing the crystalline content under typical polymer processing conditions. The …

Biochar produced by thermal decomposition of biomass under oxygen-limited conditions has
received increasing attention as a cost-effective sorbent to treat metal-contaminated waters…

The use of supercritical carbon dioxide as a processing solvent for the physical processing
of polymeric materials is reviewed. Fundamental properties of CO 2 /polymer systems are …

Impurity doping has been widely used to endow semiconductor nanocrystals with novel
optical, electronic, and magnetic functionalities. Here, we introduce a new family of doped NCs …

This paper investigates the properties and interfacial modification of blends of polylactide (PLA)
and glycerol-plasticized thermoplastic starch (TPS). A twin-screw extrusion process was …

Recently, plasmonic copper sulfide (Cu 2–x S) nanocrystals (NCs) have attracted much
attention as materials for photothermal therapy (PTT). Previous reports have correlated …

The structural flexibility and efficacy of thiourea−amine catalysts for the supramolecular
activation and ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of lactide are described. The nature of the …
