Surface Diffusion in SnTe‐PbTe Monolayer Lateral Heterostructures
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The lateral heterostructures between 2D materials often suffer from the interdiffusion at the interfaces. Here, a surface diffusion mechanism is found to be dominating at the interfaces between semiconducting SnTe and PbTe monolayers. Atomically sharp interfaces can be achieved by suppressing this diffusion process. ABSTRACT The construction of complex

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A transparent, laser‐microscribed glass platform enables cancer diagnosis within 1 h—much faster than histology, which takes days, and free from the chemical or contrast risks of MRI or CT scans. The antibody‐functionalized rough glass surface captures viable cancer cells directly from suspension, allowing instant optical readout and offering a rapid ...

Structural flexibility of a recombinant intrinsically disordered LEA protein from Ramonda serbica
Scientific ReportsLate embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins play a crucial role in the desiccation tolerance of resurrection plants, although their exact functions remain unclear. Therefore, we recombinantly produced desiccation-induced LEA4 protein member, RsLEAP30-His6,

Metabolomic charactetization of yeast cells after dehydration stress [PDF]
, 2015 In this study, we analyzed the metabolite features of the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Naumovia castellii, and Saccharomyces mikatae. The three species are closely related genetically but differ in their tolerance of desiccation stress. Specifi cally,

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Pullulan, a biomass‐derived polysaccharide, is transformed into transparent optical fibers using a solvent‐free borax hydrogel‐spinning method. The fibers outperform PMMA with ≈200 MPa tensile strength and 200 °C stability, while uniquely guiding visible‐to‐NIR light and enabling additive‐free humidity sensing.

Bio‐Inspired Molecular Events in Poly(Ionic Liquids)
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Originating from dipolar and polar inter‐ and intra‐chain interactions of the building blocks, the topologies and morphologies of poly(ionic liquids) (PIL) govern their nano‐ and micro‐processibility. Modulating the interactions of cation‐anion pairs with aliphatic dipolar components enables the tunability of properties, facilitated by “bottom‐up ...

Fluorine‐Free Soft Nanocomposites for High‐Speed Liquid Impact Repellence
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Fluorine‐free soft nanocomposite coatings are developed using silicone oil‐mediated mechanical‐stiffness control, enabling ‘dry’ liquid‐repellent surfaces that resist high‐speed water jet impacts up to ∼60 m/s. By tuning nanoparticle loading and oil content, the coatings also achieve >90% optical transparency, amphiphobicity with impact resistance to ...

Temperature, organic matter and the sustainability of aquatic systems [PDF]
, 1995 Changes in sustainability of aquatic ecosystems are likely to be brought about by the global warming that has been widely predicted. In this article, the effects of water temperature on water-bodies (lakes, oceans and rivers) are reviewed followed by the
