Abstract:
An ultrathin CdS layer-modified MoO3/Ni3S2 hierarchical nanoarray on Ni foam exhibits ultrahigh electrocatalytic activity towards the hydrogen evolution reaction with a small overpotential of 30 mV at -10 mA cm-2 due to the synergistic effect of easy electron transfer among CdS, MoO3 and Ni3S2/NF and the well-designed structure, which outperforms the current non-noble electrocatalysts.

The paradox
Nucleosomes, paradoxically, perform two opposite functions simultaneously. On the one hand, their main responsibility is to protect the delicate DNA strands from physical damage and help achieve a higher compaction ratio. While on the other hand, they must allow polymerase enzymes to access DNA...
