The Effects of Molecular Chirality on Liquid Crystals
Liquid crystals with a bent-core have revolutionized research in soft condensed matter chemistry and physics.
Highly Detective Photodetector Based on Graphene-Silicon Heterojunction
Researchers devise a highly detective photodetector based on graphene-silicon heterojunctions with interface improvement by introducing a thin interfacial oxide layer.
Direct insertion of nanowires into living algal cells
The direct insertion of nanowires into living algal cells using inkjet printing technology is demonstrated.
Handwritten, soft circuit boards using nanoparticles
This video shows that it is possible to ‘mechanically sinter’ liquid metal nanoparticles to form soft, electrically conductive traces by hand.
Small's 10th Anniversary Special Issue
Its development from a monthly to a weekly publication reflects the growth of this research and the importance of Small in bringing it to the world.
Edible salt crystals: a cheap, green, water soluble substrate for graphene synthesis
Researchers investigate substrates in which micron-size sodium chloride crystals are used as a water soluble, recyclable substrate for CVD growth of few-layer graphene.
Stable Performance and Reduced Cost for Electrocatalysts
A new hybrid catalyst technology with reduced platinum content delivers lower system costs and improved ORR activity, stability, and fuel cell performance.
