    摘要: Two-dimensional materials can be formed into enclosures for various substances and a substrate layer can be provided on an outside and/or on an inside of the enclosure, wherein the enclosure is not cytotoxic. The enclosures can be exposed to an environment, such as a biological environment (in vivo or in vitro), where the fibrous layer can promote vascular ingrowth. One or more substances within the enclosure can be released into the environment, one or more selected substances from the environment can enter the enclosure, one or more selected substances from the environment can be prevented from entering the enclosure, one or more selected substances can be retained within the enclosure, or combinations thereof. The enclosure can, for example, allow a sense-response paradigm to be realized. The enclosure can, for example, provide immunoisolation for materials, such as living cells, retained therein.

    摘要: It is often desirable to release graphene from its growth substrate. Present graphene release techniques can damage the graphene and produce significant quantities of hazardous waste. Electrowetting techniques can be used in alternative approaches for releasing graphene from its growth substrate. Methods for releasing graphene by electrowetting can include providing a metal substrate having graphene adhered thereto, applying a dielectric layer to the graphene to form a coated structure, placing the coated structure in a liquid medium, establishing an electrical potential between the metal substrate and a conductor disposed proximate to at least a portion of the dielectric layer such that the electrical potential induces infiltration of the liquid medium between at least a portion of the metal substrate and the graphene, and releasing the graphene from the metal substrate in the presence of the infiltrated liquid medium. The electrical potential can be maintained until the graphene is released.

    摘要: Functional components of spacecraft structures can be subject to detrimental impacts by energetic particles produced from an electric propulsion system. A graphene coating applied to a functional component can maintain electrical conductivity upon a surface of the functional component, thereby allowing charge dissipation to take place, while also resisting sputtering erosion resulting from impacts of the energetic particles. Accordingly, spacecraft structures can include an electric propulsion system, a functional component that is at least partially impacted by an outflow of the electric propulsion system, and a graphene coating upon the functional component. Methods for operating such spacecraft structures can include generating an outflow of energetic particles from an electric propulsion system of a spacecraft structure, and at least partially impacting the outflow of energetic particles upon a functional component of the spacecraft structure, where the functional component has a graphene coating thereon.
