Interfacial friction-induced electronic excitation mechanism for tribo-tunneling current generation
Jun Liu, Keren Jiang, Lan Nguyen +2
Direct-current (d.c.) electricity generation using moving Schottky contact is emerging as a new strategy for mechanical energy conversion. Here, we demonstrate the generation of d.…

Nanomechanical resonance captures pre-melting transition in DNA unravelling
Keren Jiang, Faheem Khan, Javix Thomas +2
A double-stranded DNA unravels thermally through intermediate denatured bubble segments. Intrinsically, fluctuations ensue at the bubble boundaries from non-equilibrium (NE) energy…
