Optical motion control of catalytic WS2 and MoS2 micromotors

Magnetic-acoustic actuated spinous microrobot for enhanced degradation of organic pollutants

“…In recent days, emerging micro/nanorobots [29] , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] not only inherit the excellent characteristics of high surface area and reactivity from micro/nanomaterials but also exhibit autonomous mobilities [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] , enabling efficient adsorption [39] , chemical reactions [40] , and catalysis [41] . For instance, self-propelled bio-hybrid microrobots based on marine rotifers have effectively removed pesticides and neurotoxins such as methyl parathion [42] .…”

Metal (Au, Ag, Pt) Doping Effects on the Gas-Sensing Mechanism and Characteristics of Two-Dimensional WS2: A First-Principle

“…Consequently, 2D TMDs are widely regarded as having enormous potential for applications in the sensor field. Among them, two-dimensional tungsten disulfide (WS 2 ), with its folded hexagonal structure, exhibits extensive prospects in the field of gas sensing owing to its unique crystal structure and physicochemical properties, such as high charge carrier mobility, 15 tunable band gap, 16 and high specific surface area. 17 While WS 2 was initially employed primarily as a lubricant in the past, its increasing prominence in electronic devices has become evident with deeper research.…”
