Spiro‐Phenothiazine Hole‐Transporting Materials: Unlocking Stability and Scalability in Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Fluorene‐functionalized spiro‐phenothiazine (PTZ‐Fl) exhibits strong Li+ affinity and thermal stability, enabling a PCE of 25.75% in small‐area cells and 22.07% in 25 cm2 modules. Under ISOS‐L3 conditions, PTZ‐Flbased devices retain over 80% efficiency after 1000 hours, demonstrating superior stability and scalability compared to spiro‐OMeTAD for next ...

Cyclic Liquefaction Resistance of an Alluvial Natural Sand: A Comparison between Fully and Partially Saturated Conditions

Geotechnics, 2022
Earthquake-induced liquefaction is one of the major causes of building damage as it decreases the strength and stiffness of soil. The liquefaction resistance of soils increases significantly as the degree of saturation decreases, making soil desaturation

Seasonality of the hydrological cycle in major South and Southeast Asian river basins as simulated by PCMDI/CMIP3 experiments [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics, 2014
In this study, we investigate how PCMDI/CMIP3 general circulation models (GCMs) represent the seasonal properties of the hydrological cycle in four major South and Southeast Asian river basins (Indus, Ganges, Brahmaputra and Mekong).

Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Reveals Anisotropic Water Transport in Smectite Thin Film

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Clay minerals, vital in advanced technologies, exhibit tunable interfacial properties. Quasielastic neutron scattering is used on oriented beidellite films to study charge‐induced anisotropy. Results reveal anisotropic water dynamics and orientation‐dependent diffusion.

ESD Ideas: a simple proposal to improve the contribution of IPCC WGI to the assessment and communication of climate change risks [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics, 2018
The purpose of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is to provide policy-relevant assessments of the scientific evidence about climate change. Policymaking necessarily involves risk assessments, so it is important that IPCC reports are

Microbial Community Succession Sustains Fish Diversity in the Upper Yangtze River Reserve

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Critical for river ecosystem sustainability, fish diversity relates to multitrophic microbes. This upper Yangtze FNNR study used eDNA to examine microbial succession‐fish links, finding key drivers, distinct assembly processes, and that microbial cross‐trophic interactions benefit fish, offering conservation insights.
