Electric Field‐Induced Dark Current Steering in MAPbI3/Nb2CTx Photodetector Toward Weak‐Light Single‐Pixel Imaging

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In conventional photoconductive detectors, the shared collection path for dark current and photocurrent imposes a fundamental compromise between noise suppression and signal responsivity. To break this trade‐off, we introduce a device architecture featuring a strategically integrated third electrode within a MAPbI3/Nb2CTx heterostructure. This

Structure–Property Relationship‐Guided Mechanisms for Electromagnetic Wave Absorption, Triboelectric Generation, and Negative Permittivity in Magnetic Metacomposites

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The composition and structural characteristics of metacomposites are crucial for tuning their negative electromagnetic parameters; however, the lack of a clear structure–property relationship severely limits their application in dielectric and magnetic fields.

Microwave‐Actuated CuS/CuCo2O4 Heterojunction Microneedles for Synergistic Eradication of Deep‐Seated Biofilms and Inflammatory Microenvironment Remodeling in Acne Treatment

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Deep skin infections and dense biofilm barriers caused by Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) remain significant challenges in recurrent acne vulgaris, exacerbated by the poor stratum corneum penetration of conventional therapies and rising antibiotic resistance.

Influence of Alkaline Earth Barium on the Microstructure, Corrosion Behavior, and Cytocompatibility of Biodegradable Zinc

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Biodegradable Zn‐based alloys are promising candidates for temporary implants, yet excessive Zn2+ release during degradation may induce cytotoxicity and adverse tissue responses. In this study, Zn‐xBa alloys (x = 0.1 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1.0 wt% and 3.0 wt%) were developed to achieve controlled corrosion behaviors with improved biocompatibility.

Interventions to Reduce Child Poverty and Its Determinants: A Rapid Overview of Reviews

Poverty &Public Policy, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite evidence for various child poverty reduction strategies, there is ambiguity regarding the most effective types to inform policy. Thus, we conducted an overview of reviews to systematically identify, appraise, and synthesize interventions for reducing childhood poverty in high‐income country settings.

Effects of Unconditional Cash Transfers on Asset Accumulation Among Low‐Income Households in Rural Northern Uganda

Poverty &Public Policy, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cash transfers have become an increasingly important social protection tool in development and humanitarian contexts. In developing countries, cash transfers can be used to build economic resilience. This study examines the effects of unconditional cash transfers on asset accumulation among low‐income households in rural Northern Uganda. Using

La3+ Vacancy Mediated Enhancement of Near‐Infrared Emission in Cr3+‐Activated La2MgTiO6 Phosphors for Multifunctional Applications

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Near‐infrared (NIR) phosphors with broadband and efficient emission are pivotal for the performance of NIR phosphor‐converted light emitting diodes (pc‐LEDs). In this study, the double perovskite phosphor La2MgTiO6:Cr3+ phosphor with broadband emission in the range of 650–950 nm was prepared.

Encapsulation of Bi2S3 Within Multifunctional Sulfurized Polyacrylonitrile Matrix Enables High‐Performance Wide‐Temperature Sodium/Potassium‐Ion Batteries Through Solid–Solid Conversion

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT With high theoretical capacity and low cost, bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3) demonstrates considerable potential as an anode for sodium/potassium‐ion batteries (SIBs/PIBs). Unfortunately, significant volume variation, low electrical conductivity, and dissolution of polysulfides drastically weaken their intrinsic merits.
