Rebellious riots : entangled geographies of contention in Africa
, 2023 Starting from the question why different forms of contentious politics in Africa, from rural uprisings to armed rebellions, have for so long been studied separately and in disconnection to each other, this chapter forms the introduction of our edited ...

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The ALD precursor bis(trimethylsilyl)selenide is simultaneously a substrate surface inhibitor. It allows for the growth of Sb2Se3 in combination with tris(dimethylamido)antimony, but also silylates surface hydroxyl groups on the substrate if such hydroxyls are present.

Descriptor‐Informed Screening of Interface‐Active Molecules for Efficient Magnesium Metal Anodes
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A descriptor‐informed molecular screening strategy identifies 4‐bromo‐N, N‐dimethylaniline (BrNNA) as an interface‐active electrolyte component that enables fast Mg stripping/plating in Mg(TFSI)2‐based electrolytes. By simultaneously regulating Mg2+ solvation and interphase formation, the BrNNA‐containing electrolyte delivers activation‐free Mg ...
