Metal/Si Nanowire Arrays for Hot Electron Catalysis

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Silicon nanowire arrays enhance plasmon‐driven catalysis by strengthening light–matter interactions on Au and Ag nanostructured coatings. Hotspot accessibility, rather than near‐field intensity alone, governs photocatalytic performance, while Ag nanoshells exhibit superior activity. The work establishes high‐surface‐area Si nanowire arrays as versatile

Influence of Surface Roughness and Temperature on Niobium Cathodic Cage Duplex Treatment Applied to VP20TS Steel

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
Niobium cathodic cage duplex treatment is applied to VP20TS steel to evaluate the influence of surface roughness and temperature on coating performance. Results show that higher temperatures promote thicker nitride layers and increased microhardness, while finer surface preparation enhances adhesion and wear resistance, revealing optimal conditions for

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

Toward Silica‐Free Compliance: A Low‐Viscosity Sample Pretreatment Methodology for Crystalline Quartz Quantification in Viscous Pastes

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crystalline quartz, the most common crystalline silica polymorph, is widely found in industrial products. It is of high regulatory relevance, because its fine fraction, a form of respirable crystalline silica, is classified as an occupational carcinogen, with product‐content thresholds (e.g., 0.1% (w/w) in the European Union) and stringent ...

Effect of Pressure, Feed Rate, and Abrasive Mass Flow Rate on Water Jet Cutting Efficiency When Cutting Recombinant Bamboo

open access: yesBioResources, 2014
The impact of varying pressure, feed rate, and abrasive mass flow rate on the efficiency of an abrasive water jet cutting process was studied in this work. Recombinant bamboo samples with thicknesses of 5, 10, and 15 mm were cut by the abrasive water jet.

Surface Micro‐Discharge Plasma for Multiple Teeth Bleaching: Efficacy, Mechanism and Safety

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the commonly‐used bleaching chemical in clinical practice, but its excessive concentrations can cause tooth damage. Atmospheric pressure cold plasma is considered a promising new technique for tooth bleaching. Surface micro‐discharge (SMD) devices can generate large‐scale plasma, which holds potential for treating ...
