Two-dimensional (2D) layered semiconductors are current research hotspots on account of their wide variety of applications in electronics and optoelectronics due to their particular ultrathin nature. In this review, the band alignment engineering in heterojunctions composed of 2D van der Waals (vdW) layered semiconductors and their device applications in optoelectronics are provided. Various approaches that induced adjustability of vdW heterojunctions are summarized, mainly including composition and thickness modulations, strain, and electric fields. Furthermore, their perspectives on future developments in optoelectronics and electronics devices based on the newly unique physical and chemical properties are outlined.

Measuring the surface and mean inner potential at the end of buckytubes will offer a lot of information about their physical and chemical properties. Such properties are closely related to fundamental mechanisms of the growth of the buckytubes that grow on the cathode with their axes aligned along the direction of the electric field (1), implicating the presence of the field in the formation mechanism.Direct observations of surface and inner potential distribution at nanometer level by electron holography were reported in several cases (2). Holography is the only imaging technique that can retrieve the phase of the electron wave, which directly related to the surface and inner potential. In this contribution, electron holography was employed to obtain the mapping of the phase of the electron wave traveled through the end of nanotubes.The holograms were recorded on negatives using a Hitachi HF-2000 with a cold emission gun, operated at 200kv.

Today, western society is facing challenges to create new medical technologies to service an aging population as well as the ever-increasing e-waste of electronic devices and sensors. A key solution to these challenges will be the use of biomaterials and biomimetic systems. One material that has been receiving serious attention for its biomedical and device applications is eumelanin. Eumelanin, or commonly known as melanin, is nature’s brown-black pigment and is a poly-indolequinone biopolymer, which possess unique physical and chemical properties for material applications. Presented here is a review, aimed at polymer and other materials scientists, to introduce eumelanin as a potential material for research. Covered here are the chemical and physical structures of melanin, an overview of its unique physical and chemical properties, as well as a wide array of applications, but with an emphasis on device and sensing applications. The review is then finished by introducing interested readers to novel synthetic protocols and post synthesis fabrication techniques to enable a starting point for polymer research in this intriguing and complex material.

In connection with the spectrophotometric study of population-type characteristics of various kinds of stars, a statistical analysis of kinematical and distribution parameters of the same stars is performed at the Toruń Observatory. This has a twofold purpose: first, to provide a practical guide in selecting stars for observing programmes, second, to contribute to the understanding of relations existing between the physical and chemical properties of stars and their kinematics and distribution in the Galaxy.

Organic farming is one of the management strategies that improve productivity of marginal uplands. The study aimed to: (1) evaluate effects of various organic-based fertilizers on the growth and yield of corn; (2) determine the appropriate combination for optimum yield; and (3) assess changes on the soil physical and chemical properties. Experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design, with 3 replications and 7 treatments, namely; T0=(0-0-0); T1=1t ha-1 Evans + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T2=t ha-1 Wellgrow + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T3=15t ha-1 chicken dung; T4=10t ha-1 chicken dung + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1; T5=15t ha-1 Vermicast; and T6=10t ha-1 Vermicast + 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1. Application of organic-based fertilizers with or without inorganic fertilizers promoted growth of corn than the control. But due to high infestation of corn silk beetle(Monolepta bifasciata Horns), its grain yield was greatly affected. In the second cropping, except for Evans, any of these fertilizers applied alone or combined with 45-30-30kg N, P2O5, K2O ha-1 appeared appropriate in increasing corn earyield. Soil physical and chemical properties changed with addition of organic fertilizers. While bulk density decreased irrespective of treatments, pH, total N, available P and exchangeable K generally increased more with chicken dung application.
