Abstract:
Structures comprising a first sheet of perforated two-dimensional material and a first plurality of spacer elements disposed between a surface of the first sheet of perforated two-dimensional material and at least one of a surface of a structural substrate and a surface of a second sheet of perforated two-dimensional material are disclosed, as well as related methods. The structures may further comprise a structural substrate, a second plurality of spacer elements, additional sheets of perforated two-dimensional material in direct contact with the first and/or said second sheet of perforated two-dimensional material and/or relief features in the surface of the structural substrate.
Abstract:
Tin nanoparticles and compositions derived therefrom can be used in a number of different applications. Methods for making tin nanoparticles can include combining a tin (II) salt and a metal salt in a solvent, the metal salt being soluble in the solvent and reducible by the tin (II) salt; reducing the metal salt with a first portion of the tin (II) salt to produce a tin (IV) salt and insoluble nanoparticle seeds formed from the metal salt; and reacting the tin (IV) salt, a second portion of the tin (II) salt, or any combination thereof with a reducing agent to form tin nanoparticles having a nucleus formed from a nanoparticle seed.

Abstract:
Nanoparticle paste formulations can be configured to maintain a fluid state, promote dispensation, and mitigate crack formation during nanoparticle fusion. Such nanoparticle paste formulations can contain an organic matrix and a plurality of metal nanoparticles dispersed in the organic matrix, where the plurality of metal nanoparticles constitute about 30% to about 90% of the nanoparticle paste formulation by weight. The nanoparticle paste formulations can maintain a fluid state and be dispensable through a micron-size aperture. The organic matrix can contain one or more organic solvents, such as the combination of one or more hydrocarbons, one or more alcohols, one or more amines, and one or more organic acids. Optionally, the nanoparticle paste formulations can contain about 0.01 to about 15 percent by weight micron-scale metal particles or other additives.
