Making Photoresponsive Metal–Organic Frameworks an Effective Class of Heterogeneous Photocatalyst

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes photoresponsive MOFs for photocatalytic applications, focusing on their capacity to enhance light harvesting, charge transfer, and surface reactions. While existing studies provide foundational insights, emerging characterization techniques enable a deeper understanding of photoresponsive MOFs.

Engineering the Metal/Oxide Interfacial O‐Filling Effect to Tailor Oxygen Spillover for Efficient Acidic Water Oxidation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The oxygen spillover from Ir to the oxide support with interfacial oxygen vacancies during OER is revealed. These interfacial oxygen vacancies as an oxygen transport zone not only regulate the in situ Ir catalytic structure toward boosted activity but also suppress Ir over‐oxidation via directional OH‐filling effects, thereby ensuring overall high ...

Fourier series and approximation on hexagonal and triangular domains [PDF]

arXiv, 2008
Several problems on Fourier series and trigonometric approximation on a hexagon and a triangle are studied. The results include Abel and Ces\`aro summability of Fourier series, degree of approximation and best approximation by trigonometric functions, both direct and inverse theorems.

Ultra‐Effective Light‐Activated Antibacterial Activity via Carboxyl Functionalized Graphene Quantum Dots and Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Carboxyl‐functionalized graphene quantum dots (cGQDs) exhibit high singlet oxygen quantum yield due to strong spin–orbit coupling. cGQDs achieve minimum bactericidal concentration of only 0.4 µg mL−1 against S. aureus under low‐intensity illumination.

Illuminating Fourier Series with Audacity [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
This paper briefly describes some simple techniques for illuminating Fourier series and Fourier analysis with the Audacity sound recording program. These techniques are easily applied in the classroom and help students move beyond formula roulette in their understanding of Fourier techniques.

Shape‐Reconfigurable Crack‐Based Strain Sensor with Ultrahigh and Tunable Sensitivity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A highly sensitive crack‐based sensor with tunable strain detection capabilities is demonstrated through controlled nanocrack formation in a line‐patterned shape memory polymer substrate. The sensor design integrates thermoplastic polyurethane and poly(lactic acid), enabling thermo‐responsive reconfiguration of crack geometry.

Pointwise and uniform convergence of Fourier extensions [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Fourier series approximations of continuous but nonperiodic functions on an interval suffer the Gibbs phenomenon, which means there is a permanent oscillatory overshoot in the neighbourhoods of the endpoints. Fourier extensions circumvent this issue by approximating the function using a Fourier series which is periodic on a larger interval.

Polar Pore Surface of Polyamide Membranes Enabling Efficient Solvent Mixture Separation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A polyamide membrane with polar pore surfaces and relatively large pore is fabricated through interfacial polymerization between polyethyleneimine and trimesoyl chloride. Rapid separation of solvents with polarity differences is achieved by the synergistic effects of pore polarity and size sieving.

Synergistic Effects of Ruthenium and Zinc Active Sites Fine Tune the Electronic Structures of Augmented Electrocatalysis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents an electronic fine‐tuning (EFT) strategy to optimize the electronic structures of Ru species and single‐atom Zn sites by the virtue of layered nanosheets, significantly enhancing ORR and HER activities. Spectroscopic analysis and theoretical calculations uncover that this EFT effect breaks the ORR scaling limitation and positions ...

Heat Conduction Modulation in Incommensurate Twisted Stacking of Transition‐Metal Dichalcogenide

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The interlayer thermal conductance in twisted bilayer TMDs is initially investigated experimentally by the thermoreflectance method. The overlap of lattice vibrations within individual layers and the interlayer interactions, as elucidated through both Raman spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations, are demonstrated to be critical factors in ...
