Coplanar supercapacitors on textiles have received much concern with the development of flexible and wearable energy-storage-devices because this configuration can remarkably enhance the mechanical deformation and facilitate the integration with other devices as compared with conventional...

Cutaneous infections involving pathogenic biofilms cannot be effectively treated by topical therapies, partially due to the resistance and the poor penetration of therapeutics. To overcome these limitations, we propose a multi-functional microneedle device that can penetrate through the stratum...

Perovskite oxides are promising catalysts in peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation for wastewater treatment, attributed to their flexible structures. In this study, halogen anion (F− or Cl− ) was doped in La0.6Sr0.4Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ (LSCF) for PMS activation, showing that appropriate anion doping...

The explosion characteristics of nitromethane-epoxypropane-aluminum powder and nitromethane-n-pentane-aluminum powder fuel were studied in a 20 L explosion vessel under low-temperature, low pressure and high relative humidity conditions. The promotion of nitromethane on these solid-liquid fuel...

To further investigate the promoting effect of soybean protein and peptides on L. rhamnosus Lra05, the overall changes of gene expression of it was investigated through transcriptome analysis treated with dPEP and dSPI1. The results showed that there were 890, 113 and 1073 differentially...

This paper studies the optimal trade policy in the presence of international knowledge diffusion. Since importing from more productive foreign exporters facilitates knowledge diffusion, countries have strong incentives to treat their trade partners differently in trade policy. I quantitatively...

Technology acquirers face significant information asymmetry when identifying appropriate acquisition targets. Employing plausibly exogenous variation in technological information gathering costs caused by staggered openings of patent libraries, we find that firms become more active in...
