Thresholds: The metaphorical foundations of powerful knowledge

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper advances a theoretical account of threshold concepts as metaphorical‐relational structures that reorganise meaning across contexts. Building on conceptual metaphor theory, we propose that threshold concepts can be understood as sites of schema‐level reorganisation: deep, embodied patterns of relational logic that scaffold abstract ...

Circular and Bio‐Sourced Polymers for Energy Applications: Natural Feedstocks, Recycling, and Upcycling Routes

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review provides a critical comparative analysis of circular and bio‐sourced polymers for energy storage, systematically evaluating natural feedstocks alongside recycling and upcycling strategies for battery components. Key structure–property–performance relationships and inherent trade‐offs between sustainability metrics and electrochemical ...

Low‐Temperature in Situ Upgrading of Ultra‐Deep Heavy Oil Using Ni–Ce/MOF–OTf Superacid Catalysts to Enhance Energy Utilization and Sustainability

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A triflate‐functionalized Ni–Ce/MOF–OTf superacid enables low‐temperature (∼140°C) in situ upgrading of ultra‐deep heavy oil. It reduces viscosity by 92.11% in 12 h, maintains activity over cycles, and delivers 90.25% recovery with a lower carbon footprint by selective bond cleavage. ABSTRACT Ultra‐deep heavy oil is an important unconventional resource,

Transient Charging Dynamics in Stacked Ga2O3/ZnO Photovoltaic Units Governing Wavelength‐Selective Polarity Switching

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work reveals a “Photovoltaic‐Capacitance” coupling mechanism in stacked Ga2O3/ZnO devices, defining the ZnO/graphene interface as a novel Photovoltaic Dynamic‐Capacitor (PDC). The wavelength‐selective bipolar response enables a physical layer secure communication protocol based on ternary optical logic (“1,” “0,” “−1”).

Advances in Design Strategy and Mechanism Insights for Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution Reaction: Multilevel Site Engineering and Structure–Activity Relationship

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This review is about material design based on engineering multilevel sites from theoretical calculation and synthetic routes to mechanism, structure–activity relationship, challenges and perspectives for boosting hydrogen production in alkaline electrolyte. Electrolytic water splitting is a clean, carbon‐free method for producing green hydrogen and has
