Advanced Science, EarlyView.A yolk–shell PTFE‐based composite (YSP) enables tunable, robust hydrophobic–water interfaces for efficient, on‐demand sonocatalytic H2O2 generation and pollutant degradation. ABSTRACT The use of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles to promote sonochemical H2O2 production has attracted growing interest, as cavitation bubbles formed at or near their ...

Mesoporous‐Shell Monolayer Plasmonic Architecture Enables Quantitative and Decision‐Guided SERS
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mesoporous‐shell‐regulated molecular transport combined with monolayer hotspot determinism transforms surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) from ultrasensitive detection into quantitative and decision‐guided molecular sensing. ABSTRACT Quantitative surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has long been impeded by stochastic hotspot formation ...

When Does decentralization deliver? The Dilemma of Design [PDF]
Decentralization since early 1990s has become one of the buzzwords of the development paradigms. Among all ingredients of decentralization, the fiscal component of it has a special significance. Not surprisingly the literature unanimously recognizes that

Decentralized aid and democracy
INVESTIGACION & DESARROLLO, 2017 This paper uses a model of vote over public finances to show that when nongovernmental organisations deliver development aid, beneficiaries have incentives to reduce electoral support for state-led redistribution. As a result, NGOs can crowd out governmental spending, turning private aid into a negative externality for the poor who do not directly ...

Autonomous Solar Metallurgy for High‐Purity Gold Recovery from Electronic Waste
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by microbial strategies for metal uptake and biomineralization, defect‐rich copper sulfide (Cu31S16) functions as a solar metallurgical platform that unifies Au(III) capture, reduction, and self‐separation. The bioinspired design enables ultrafast gold recovery from electronic‐waste leachates and the spontaneous formation of millimeter‐scale ...
