Resonators based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) using two-dimensional (2D) materials with high-quality factors and excellent electrical control are critical for tunable coherent phonon dynamics, resonant sensors and wireless communications. However, their performance is fundamentally limited by the lack of a unified framework governing energy dissipation mechanisms and their electrical tunability. Here, we synergistically modulate both ...

Thermoelectric materials, long explored for energy harvesting and thermal sensing, convert heat directly into electrical signals. Extending their application to the terahertz (THz) frequency range opens opportunities for low-noise, bias-free THz detection, yet conventional thermoelectrics lack the sensitivity required for practical devices. Thermoelectric coefficients can be strongly enhanced near van Hove singularities (VHS), though these ...

Novel cobalt bis(dicarbollide) based terminal alkynes with charge-compensated group in a spacer were synthesized by the nucleophilic ring-opening reactions of cyclic oxonium derivatives of cobalt bis(dicarbollide) with N,N-dimethylbut-3-yn-1-amine. A series of zwitterionic conjugates of cobalt bis(dicarbollide) with BODIPY were synthesized using the copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The absorption-emission spectra of the synthesized fluorescent conjugates of cobalt ...

Pyruvylation is one of the immunochemically relevant modifications of O-antigens in bacterial and fungal cells. Therefore, fast and relatively simple analytical methods for identifying this modification are highly demanded. 13C NMR spectroscopy is the best candidate for this purpose, but its successful application requires using reference structures and reliable databases.
