Hydrogen sensing properties of Pt/lanthanum oxide-molybdenum oxide nanoplatelet/SiC based Schottky diode
An investigation of the electrical and hydrogen sensing properties of a novel Schottky diode based on a nanostructured lanthanum oxide-molybdenum oxide compound is presented herein. Molybdenum oxide (MoO3) nanoplatelets were grown on SiC substrates via thermal evaporation which was then subsequently coated with lanthanum oxide (La2O3) by RF sputtering. The current-voltage characteristics and hydrogen sensing performance (change in barrier height and sensitivity as well as the dynamic response) were examined from 25 to 300°C. At 180°C, a voltage shift of 2.23V was measured from the sensor while exposed to 1% hydrogen gas under a 100 μA constant reverse bias current. The results indicate that the presence of a La2O3 thin layer substantially improves the hydrogen sensitivity of the MoO3 nanoplatelets
Biosensors based on two-dimensional MoS2
The unique properties of two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (2D MoS2) have so far led to immense research regarding this material's fundamentals, applications, and, more recently, its potential for biosensing. 2D MoS2 has properties that make it of great interest for developing biosensors. These properties include large surface area, tunable energy band diagrams, a comparatively high electron mobility, photoluminescence, liquid media stability, relatively low toxicity, and intercalatable morphologies. In this Review, the current progress on 2D MoS2 based biosensors is presented and the prospects for future possibilities of expanding its applications for a variety of biosensing applications are discussed
Observation of a Vector Charmoniumlike State at 4.7 GeV/c2 and Search for Zcs in e+e- →k+K-J/ψ
Using data samples with an integrated luminosity of 5.85 fb-1 collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.61 to 4.95 GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, we measure the cross section for the process e+e-→K+K-J/ψ. A new resonance with a mass of M=4708-15+17±21 MeV/c2 and a width of Γ=126-23+27±30 MeV is observed in the energy-dependent line shape of the e+e-→K+K-J/ψ cross section with a significance over 5σ. The K+J/ψ system is also investigated to search for charged charmoniumlike states, but no significant Zcs+ states are observed. Upper limits on the Born cross sections for e+e-→K-Zcs(3985)+/K-Zcs(4000)++c.c. with Zcs(3985)±/Zcs(4000)±→K±J/ψ are reported at 90% confidence levels. The ratio of branching fractions {[B(Zcs(3985)+→K+J/ψ)]/B[Zcs(3985)+→(D¯0Ds∗++D¯∗0Ds+)]} is measured to be less than 0.03 at 90% confidence level. © 2023 authors.

Improved measurement of the branching fractions for J/ψ →γπ0, γη, and γη′
Using a data sample of (1.0087±0.0044)×1010 J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, the decays of J/ψ→γπ0(η,η′)→γγγ are studied. Newly measured branching fractions are B(J/ψ→γπ0)=(3.34±0.02±0.09)×10-5, B(J/ψ→γη)=(1.096±0.001±0.019)×10-3, and B(J/ψ→γη′)=(5.40±0.01±0.11)×10-3, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are consistent with the world average values within two standard deviations. The ratio of partial widths Γ(J/ψ→γη′)/Γ(J/ψ→γη) is measured to be 4.93±0.13. The singlet-octet pseudoscalar mixing angle θP is determined to be θP=-(22.11±0.26)° or -(19.34±0.34)° with two different phenomenological models. © 2023 authors.

Observation of the ψ (3686) decays into ς+ ς ¯ -ω and ς+ ς ¯ -φ
Based on (2712.4±14.3)×106 events recorded at the ψ(3686) nominal mass collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, the ψ(3686)→ς+ς¯-ω and ς+ς¯-φ decays are observed for the first time with statistical significances of 13.8σ and 7.6σ, respectively. The corresponding branching fractions are measured to be B(ψ(3686)→ς+ς¯-ω)=(1.89±0.18±0.21)×10-5 and B(ψ(3686)→ς+ς¯-φ)=(2.96±0.54±0.41)×10-6, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.<br/
