Perspective: Hollow Core Optical Fibres for Ultraviolet and Visible Wavelengths

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hollow core optical fibres bypass material constraints that limit optical fibres at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths. However, their challenging fabrication has limited their development, and significant gains in performance remain possible. In this perspective we outline approaches to enable the next generation of fibres for shorter wavelengths ...

Mitigating Structural Degradation in O3‐Layered Sodium‐Ion Cathodes: Insights from Mg Doping in NaNi0.2Fe0.4Mn0.4O2

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Selective Mg doping in O3‐layered NaNi0.2Fe0.4Mn0.4O2 unlocks fast Na⁺ transport, stable anionic redox, and structural resilience. At 5% substitution, the cathode delivers improved capacity retention and high‐rate performance, while suppressing oxygen loss.

Large Birds of Prey, Policies That Alter Food Availability and Air Traffic: a Risky Mix for Human Safety

open access: yesHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Raptors are considered to pose one of the greatest aviation bird strike risk. We investigated raptor bird strikes reported at the largest Spanish airport (Adolfo Suárez Madrid Barajas; AS-MB) from 2009 to 2016 to determine the factors contributing to the
