Optically transparent materials that are air permeable have potentially numerous applications, including in wearable devices. From the perspective of sustainable development, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized cellulose nanofibers with widths of 3-4 nm have attracted considerable attention as starting materials for the preparatio...

Abstract On‐skin electronics, which offers an interface for extracting electrophysiological signals from skin, is intensively investigated using electrodes mounted on flexible substrates. Despite numerous efforts toward substrate design to optimize user comfort, substrates with skin‐adhesion, skin‐breathability, skin‐compatibility, mechanical endur...

Recently, there has been remarkable progress in solar thermal heating by applying biomass-derived carbons, which can absorb and convert solar light into thermal energy. The design of subwavelength nanoporous and molecular structures of biomass-derived carbons is required for suppressed reflection and enhanced absorption of solar light. However, suc...

Semiconducting nanomaterials with 3D network structures exhibit various fascinating properties such as electrical conduction, high permeability, and large surface areas, which are beneficial for adsorption, separation, and sensing applications. However, research on these materials is substantially restricted by the limited trans-scalability of thei...

Heat dissipation has become increasingly important in electronics. Conventional convection cooling systems have significant material and dimensional constraints, and they have difficulty meeting the heat dissipation, miniaturization, and flexibility requirements of next-generation smart electronics. Here, we used kirigami (the traditional art of pa...

Three-dimensional porous and defect-rich nitrogen-doped nanocarbon is successfully prepared by facile pyrolysis of crab shell-derived chitin nanofiber paper, delivering promising performance in both photosensing and energy storage.

Plasmonic nanoparticles, such as gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), have been actively applied in solar vapor generation for seawater desalination and water purification, owing to their photothermal heating performances. Such nanoparticles have been frequently anchored within porous supporting materials to ensure easy handling and water absorption. Howeve...

Progress toward the concept of “a trillion sensor universe” requires sensor devices to become more abundant, ubiquitous, and be potentially disposable. Here, we report a paper-based disposable molecular sensor device constructed from a nanowire sensor based on common zinc oxide (ZnO), a wood-derived biodegradable cellulose nanofiber paper substrate...
