Abstract
Achieving optically controlled nanomachine engineering can satisfy the touch-free and non-invasive demands of optoelectronics, nanotechnology, and biology. Traditional optical manipulations are mainly based on optical and photophoresis forces, and they usually drive particles in gas or liquid environments. However, the development of an optical drive in a non-fluidic environment, such as on a strong van der Waals interface, remains difficult. Herein, we describe an efficient 2D nanosheet actuator directed by an orthogonal femtosecond laser, where 2D VSe2 and TiSe2 nanosheets deposited on sapphire substrates can overcome the interface van der Waals forces (tens and hundreds of megapascals of surface density) and move on the horizontal surfaces. We attribute the observed optical actuation to the momentum generated by the laser-induced asymmetric thermal stress and surface acoustic waves inside the nanosheets. 2D semimetals with high absorption coefficient can enrich the family of materials suitable to implement optically controlled nanomachines on flat surfaces.

Abstract
Silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) are of increasing interest in nano-enabled agriculture, particularly as nanocarriers for the targeted delivery of agrochemicals. Their direct application in agricultural soils may lead to the release of SiO2 NPs in the environment. Although some studies have investigated transport of solid SiO2 NPs in porous media, there is a knowledge gap on how different SiO2 NP structures incorporating significant porosities can affect the mobility of such particles under different conditions. Herein, we investigated the effect of pH and ionic strength (IS) on the transport of two distinct structures of SiO2 NPs, namely solid SiO2 NPs (SSNs) and porous hollow SiO2 NPs (PHSNs), of comparable sizes (~200 nm). Decreasing pH and increasing ionic strength reduced the mobility of PHSNs in sand-packed columns more significantly than for SSNs. The deposition of PHSNs was approximately 3 times greater than that of SSNs at pH 4.5 and IS 100 mM. The results are non-intuitive given that PHSNs have a lower density and the same chemical composition of SSNs but can be explained by the greater surface roughness and ten-fold greater specific surface area of PHSNs, and their impacts on van der Waals and electrostatic interaction energies.

Abstract
In this study, hybrid fillers of spherically shaped aggregated boron nitride (a-BN) attached with SAC305, were fabricated via simple stirring and the vacuum filtration method. a-BN was used as the primary conductive filler incorporated with epoxy resin, and these fillers were interconnected each other via the coalescence behavior of SAC305 during the thermal curing process. Based on controlled a-BN content (1 g) on 3 g of epoxy, the thermal conductivity of the composite filled with hybrid filler (a-BN:SAC305 = 1:0.5) reached 0.95 W/mK (33 wt%) due to the construction of the 3D filler network, whereas that of composite filled with raw a-BN was only 0.60 W/mK (25 wt%). The thermal conductivity of unfilled epoxy was 0.19 W/mK.

Influence of AlN(0001) Surface Reconstructions on the Wettability of an Al/AlN System: A First-Principle Study. MATERIALS 2018; 11:ma11050775.

Abstract
A successful application of a hot dip coating process that coats aluminum (Al) on aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramics, revealed that Al had a perfect wettability to the ceramics under specific circumstances, which was different from previous reports. In order to elucidate the mechanism that controlled the supernormal wetting phenomenon during the dip coating, a first-principle calculation of an Al(111)/AlN(0001) interface, based on the density functional theory (DFT), was employed. The wettability of the Al melt on the AlN(0001) surface, as well as the effect that the surface reconstruction of AlN and the oxygen adsorption had on Al for the adhesion and the wettability of the Al/AlN system, were studied. The results revealed that a LCM (laterally contracted monolayer) reconstruction could improve the adhesion and wettability of the system. Oxygen adsorption on the free surface of Al decreased the contact angle, because the adsorption reduced of the surface tension of Al. A prefect wetting was obtained only after some of the oxygen atoms adsorbed on the free surface of Al. The supernormal wetting phenomenon came from the surface reconstruction of the AlN and the adsorption of oxygen atoms on the Al melt surface.

Abstract
Optical printing is a powerful all-optical method that allows the incorporation of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) onto substrates with nanometric precision. Here, we present a systematic study of the accuracy of optical printing of Au and Ag NPs, using different laser powers and wavelengths. When using light of wavelength tuned to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of the NPs, the accuracy improves as the laser power is reduced, whereas for wavelengths off the LSPR, the accuracy is independent of the laser power. Complementary studies of the printing times of the NPs reveal the roles of Brownian and deterministic motion. Calculated trajectories of the NPs, taking into account the interplay between optical forces, electrostatic forces, and Brownian motion, allowed us to rationalize the experimental results and gain a detailed insight into the mechanism of the printing process. A clear framework is laid out for future optimizations of optical printing and optical manipulation of NPs near substrates.

Insight into the Electrical Double Layer of an Ionic Liquid on Graphene. Sci Rep 2017; 7:4225.

Abstract
Graphene is a promising next-generation conducting material with the potential to replace traditional electrode materials in supercapacitors. Since energy storage in supercapacitors relies on the electrolyte-electrode interface, here we elucidate the interfacial subnanometer structure of a single component liquid composed solely of cations and anions – an ionic liquid- on electrified graphene. We study the effect of applied potential on the interaction between graphene and a silicon tip in an ionic liquid and describe it within the framework of the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeck (DLVO) theory. The energy is stored in an electrical double layer composed of an extended Stern layer, which consists of multiple ion layers over ~2 nanometers, beyond which a diffuse layer forms to compensate the applied potential on graphene. The electrical double layer significantly responds to the applied potential, and it shows the transition from overscreening to crowding of counterions at the interface at the highest applied potentials. It is proposed that surface charging occurs through the adsorption of the imidazolium cation to unbiased graphene (likely due to π-π interactions) and that the surface potential is better compensated when counterion crowding happens. This study scrutinizes the electrified graphene-ionic liquid interface, with implications not only in the field of energy storage, but also in lubrication.

Abstract
The detachment of a semiordered monolayer of polystyrene microspheres adhered to an aluminum-coated glass substrate is studied using a laser-induced spallation technique. The microsphere-substrate adhesion force is estimated from substrate surface displacement measurements obtained using optical interferometry, and a rigid-body model that accounts for the inertia of the microspheres. The estimated adhesion force is compared with estimates obtained using an adhesive contact model together with interferometric measurements of the out-of-plane microsphere contact resonance, and with estimated work of adhesion values for the polystyrene-aluminum interface. Scanning electron microscope images of detached monolayer regions reveal a unique morphology, namely, partially detached monolayer flakes composed of single hexagonal close packed crystalline domains. This work contributes to the fields of microsphere adhesion and contact dynamics, and demonstrates a unique monolayer delamination morphology.

Abstract
Contact-based vibrations play an essential role in the dynamics of granular materials. Significant insights into vibrational granular dynamics have previously been obtained with reduced-dimensional systems containing macroscale particles. We study contact-based vibrations of a two-dimensional monolayer of micron-sized spheres on a solid substrate that forms a microscale granular crystal. Measurements of the resonant attenuation of laser-generated surface acoustic waves reveal three collective vibrational modes that involve displacements and rotations of the microspheres, as well as interparticle and particle-substrate interactions. To identify the modes, we tune the interparticle stiffness, which shifts the frequency of the horizontal-rotational resonances while leaving the vertical resonance unaffected. From the measured contact resonance frequencies we determine both particle-substrate and interparticle contact stiffnesses and find that the former is an order of magnitude larger than the latter. This study paves the way for investigating complex contact-based dynamics of microscale granular crystals and yields a new approach to studying micro- to nanoscale contact mechanics in multiparticle networks.

Abstract
Colloidal particles partially coated with platinum and dispersed in H2O2 solution are often used as model self-propelled colloids. Most current data suggest that neutral self-diffusiophoresis propels these particles. However, several studies have shown strong ionic effects in this and related systems, such as a reduction of propulsion speed by salt. We investigate these ionic effects in Pt-coated polystyrene colloids, and find here that the direction of propulsion can be reversed by addition of an ionic surfactant, and that although adding pH neutral salts reduces the propulsion speed, adding the strong base NaOH has little effect. We use these data, as well as measured reaction rates, to argue against propulsion by either neutral or ionic self-diffusiophoresis, and suggest instead that the particle's propulsion mechanism may in fact bear close resemblance to that operative in bimetallic swimmers.

Abstract
The damage fluences of gratings for diffraction of ultraviolet radiation, which are used in high-order harmonic generation experiments, have been measured with respect to the fundamental laser beam radiation. We have tested gold and platinum coatings of 40- and 50-nm thickness, respectively, deposited onto fused-silica substrates, after irradiation of high-energy, spatially filtered, 20-fs laser pulses at 780 nm. The damage appears at a fluence of approximately 0.3 J cm(-2) for gold and at a fluence of approximately 0.4 J cm(-2) for platinum. Scanning electron microscopy of the irradiated regions revealed different damaging mechanisms for the two coatings.
