Ferroelectric Quantum Dots for Retinomorphic In‐Sensor Computing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work has provided a protocol for fabricating retinomorphic phototransistors by integrating ferroelectric ligands with quantum dots. The resulting device combines ferroelectricity, optical responsiveness, and low‐power operation to enable adaptive signal amplification and high recognition accuracy under low‐light conditions, while supporting ...

Legacy contaminants in the eastern Beaufort Sea beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas): are temporal trends reflecting regulations?

Arctic Science, 2018
Once deposited onto Arctic ecosystems, persistent organic pollutants (POPs) biomagnify in foodwebs such that relatively high levels have been detected in predators like beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas).

Halide Perovskite–Chalcohalide Nanocrystal Heterostructures as a Platform for the Synthesis and Investigation of the CsPbCl3–CsPbI3 Epitaxial Interface

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, perovskite–chalcohalide CsPbCl3–Pb4S3Cl2 heterostructures are exploited to study the Cl→I exchange reaction and to isolate new types of intermediate structures, in particular emissive CsPbI3–CsPbCl3–Pb4S3Cl2 heterostructures, with partial I‐alloying of the CsPbCl3 domain and at the perovskite–chalcohalide interface, having a 5.6% lattice ...

On‐Chip Perovskite Coolers

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Scaling of 3D‐integrated electronics exacerbates thermal bottlenecks, motivating solid‐state on‐chip cooling beyond convection and immersion. This perspective reviews optical refrigeration, electroluminescent cooling, and thermoelectrics for localized, vibration‐free heat removal.

Engineering of an Ancestral McbA with Enhanced Domain Mobility Extends Biocatalytic Amide Synthesis Scope

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, EarlyView.
We show how engineered ancestral amide bond synthetases (ABSs) together with cofactor recycling using a single polyphosphate kinase paves the way for chemoenzymatic synthesis of pharmacophores. The figure illustrates how ancestral ABS has a more flexible C‐terminal domain, which is associated with enhanced catalytic performance and expanded amine scope.

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background The influence of environmental exposures as risk factors for Alzheimer's and Related Dementias (ADRD) is increasingly being recognized. Our prior work found that higher serum concentrations of DDE, the highly persistent metabolite of the pesticide DDT increased risk of Alzheimer's disease and worse cognitive performance. Experiments

Initial Distance‐Dependent Mean Force Drives Synaptic Vesicle Motion Toward Fusion Sites in Stimulated Hippocampal Neurons

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Synaptic vesicle (SV) motion and exocytosis dynamics in the presynaptic terminals of live neurons are intimately linked to synaptic transmission during neuronal activity. In this work, it is revealed that, during electrical stimulation, SVs located farther from their fusion sites exhibit greater straightness and experience larger mean forces directed ...
