    Abstract: Accordingly, embodiment herein disclose a method for handling block chain operation in a block chain system. The method includes parallelizing, by the block chain system, a block creation along with a consensus mechanism. The block creation along with the consensus mechanism includes parallelly combining a pre-computed state of a succeeding block (at height “k” greater than the current block, where “k” is a positive integer parameter chosen by the system designer) with transactions in a current block to obtain state to be stored in a next succeeding block (at height “k+1” greater than the current block) along with running a consensus protocol to finalize transactions to include in an immediate next block (at height one greater than the current block). Further, the method includes handling, by the block chain system, the block chain operation based on parallelizing. The method can be used for scaling up computation in blockchains.

  • Patent number: 11351508
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new method for creating nanopores in single layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets (NSs) by the electrospray deposition (ESD) of silver ions on a water suspension of the former. Electrospray deposited silver ions react with the MoS2 NSs at the liquid-air interface resulting in Ag2S nanoparticles (NPs) which goes into the solution leaving the NSs with holes of 3-5 nm diameter. Specific reaction with the S of MoS2 NSs leads to Mo-rich edges. Such Mo-rich defects are highly efficient for the generation of active oxygen species such as H2O2, under visible light, which causes efficient disinfection of water. The holey MoS2 NSs shows 105 times higher efficiency in disinfection compared to normal MoS2 NSs. Developed a conceptual prototype and tested with multiple bacterial strains and a viral strain, demonstrating the utility of the method for practical applications.
