Abstract: Abstract The protonation/deprotonation equilibrium of a fluorescent pH probe (carboxy-seminaphthorhodafluor-1, SNARF-1) within the nanoscale water layer confined in common black films (CBFs) has been studied. We find that SNARF-1 molecules feel a more acidic environment… read more here.

Abstract: We proposed a nanoscale water switch composed of CNTs. A capped CNT with potassium ions in it may move under an external electric field, just like a piston. We can control the switch toggle between… read more here.
