Particle tracking is a powerful biophysical tool that requires conversion of large video files into position time series, i.e., traces of the species of interest for data analysis. Current tracking methods, based on a limited set of input parameters ...
Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)

Fine particulate matter (PM) has been recognized as a key air pollutant that can influence population health risk, especially during extreme cases such as wildfires. Previous studies have applied geospatial techniques such as land use regression to m...
This paper presents aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) synaptic transistors for large-scale neuromorphic computing systems. The synaptic behavior of these devices is achieved via charge-trapping effects, commonly observed in carbon-based nanoelectronics. ...
In the present study, we demonstrate a tunneling nanogap technique to identify individual RNA nucleotides, which can be used as a mechanism to read the nucleobases for direct sequencing of RNA in a solid-state nanopore. The tunneling nanogap is compo...
Improving the efficiency of detecting the spatial distribution of gas information with a mobile robot is a great challenge that requires rapid sample collection, which is basically determined by the speed of operation of gas sensors. The present work...
In this work, bimetallic core-shell rhodium@palladium nanodendrites (Rh@Pd NDs) loaded on sulfo group functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-SOH) were combined to form Rh@Pd NDs/MWCNTs-SOH nanocomposites. And the composites were used to...
Phthalate esters (PAEs) are a group of serious environmental pollutants, which lead to carcinogenicity or tumorigenicity in human body. In this study, a rapid, sensitive and green method by graphene oxide coated hollow fiber membrane extraction (GO-H...
