Integrating van der Waals materials on paper substrates for electrical and optical applications

Paper holds the promise to replace silicon substrates in applications like internet of things or disposable electronics that require ultra-low-cost electronic components and an environmentally friendly electronic waste management. In the last years, spurred by the abovementioned properties of paper as a substrate and the exceptional...

Intriguing luminescence properties of (Ba, Sr)₃Si₆O₉N₄: Eu²⁺ phosphors via modifying synthesis method and cation substitution

Synthesizing pure phase Ba₃Si₆O₉N₄ by the conventional solid-state reaction method is challenging because of easily formed secondary phase Ba₃Si₆O₁₂N₂ showing similar crystal structure. In this work, an alternative low temperature synthesis method is...
