We report a facile and robust room-temperature NO 2 sensor fabricated using bi- and multi-layered 2H variant of tungsten di-selenide (2H-WSe 2 ) nanosheets, exhibiting high sensing characteristics. A simple liquid-assisted exfoliation of 2H-WSe 2 , prepared using ambient pressure chemical vapor deposition, allows smooth integration of these nanosheets on transducers. Three sensor batches are fabricated by modulating the total number of layers (L) obtained from the total number of droplets from a homogeneous 2H-WSe 2 dispersion, such as ∼2L, ∼5–6L, and ∼13–17L, respectively. The gas-sensing attributes of 2H-WSe 2 nanosheets are investigated thoroughly. Room temperature (RT) experiments show that these devices are specifically tailored for NO 2 detection. 2L WSe 2 nanosheets deliver the best rapid response compared to ∼5–6L or ∼13–17L. The response of 2L WSe 2 at RT is 250, 328, and 361% to 2, 4, and 6 ppm NO 2 , respectively. The sensor showed nearly the same response toward low NO 2 concentration even after 9 months of testing, confirming its remarkable long-term stability. A selectivity study, performed at three working temperatures (RT, 100, and 150 °C), shows high selectivity at 150 and 100 °C. Full selectivity toward NO 2 at RT confirms that 2H-WSe 2 nanosheet-based sensors are ideal candidates for NO 2 gas detection.

“…The wetting of molten Cu-(2.5, 5, 7.5, 10) Sn on Si-implanted SiC substrates was studied, and the effects of Si ion doses and Sn concentration in Cu alloys on the wettability were analyzed. The Si ion can markedly enhance the wetting of Cu-Sn/SiC systems; however, the contact angle of Cu-Sn on Si-SiC substrate partly increases, with the Si implantation dose increasing from 5 × 10 15 to 5 × 10 16 ions/cm 2 . The wetting of Cu-Sn/(Si-)SiC systems is closely related to the increasing solid-liquid interfacial energy originated from the decreasing interfacial chemical reaction and the decreasing liquid-vapor surface energy, with the Sn concentration increasing from 2.5%, 5% and 7.5% to 10%.…”

The wettability of the metal/SiC system is not always excellent, resulting in the limitation of the widespread use of SiC ceramic. In this paper, three implantation doses of Si ions (5 × 1015, 1 × 1016, 5 × 1016 ions/cm2) were implanted into the 6H-SiC substrate. The wetting of Cu-(2.5, 5, 7.5, 10) Sn alloys on the pristine and Si-SiC were studied by the sessile drop technique, and the interfacial chemical reaction of Cu-Sn/SiC wetting couples was investigated and discussed. The Si ion can markedly enhance the wetting of Cu-Sn on 6H-SiC substrate, and those of the corresponding contact angles (θ) are raised partly, with the Si ion dose increasing due to the weakening interfacial chemical reactions among four Cu-Sn alloys and 6H-SiC ceramics. Moreover, the θ of Cu-Sn on (Si-)SiC substrate is first decreased and then increased from ~62° to ~39°, and ~70° and ~140°, with the Sn concentration increasing from 2.5%, 5% and 7.5% to 10%, which is linked to the reactivity of Cu-Sn alloys and SiC ceramic and the variation of liquid-vapor surface energy. Particularly, only a continuous graphite layer is formed at the interface of the Cu-10Sn/Si-SiC system, resulting in a higher contact angle (>40°).

Sodium alginate (Na-Alg) is water-soluble, neutral, and linear polysaccharide. It is the derivative of alginic acid which comprises 1,4-β-d-mannuronic (M) and α-l-guluronic (G) acids and has the chemical formula (NaC6H7O6). It shows water-soluble, non-toxic, biocompatible, biodegradable, and non-immunogenic properties. It had been used for various biomedical applications, among which the most promising are drug delivery, gene delivery, wound dressing, and wound healing. For different biomedical applications, it is used in different forms with the help of new techniques. That is the reason it had been blended with different polymers. In this review article, we present a comprehensive overview of the combinations of sodium alginate with natural and synthetic polymers and their biomedical applications involving delivery systems. All the scientific/technical issues have been addressed, and we have highlighted the recent advancements.
