Researchers at EPFL in Switzerland and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the US have used single-layer molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) nanopores as osmotic nanopower generators. The devices, which produce a large, osmotically induced current with a power density of up to 106 watts per square metre, can be used to power a MoS2transistor, thus making a self-powered nanosystem………
