Price Incentives and Consumer Payment Behaviour [PDF]

In this paper we estimate the effect of particular price incentives on consumer payment patterns using transaction-level data. We find that participation in a loyalty program and access to an interest-free period, both of which lower the price of credit ...

Emergence of Unconventional Magnetic Order in Strain‐Engineered RuO2/TiO2 Superlattices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Epitaxial strain activates unconventional magnetism in rutile RuO2, absent in bulk or relaxed RuO2. Polarized neutron reflectometry with atomic‐layer resolution directly reveals finite magnetization confined to RuO2 layers in fully strained RuO2/TiO2 superlattices on TiO2 (110).

A Molecularly Defined Midbrain Circuit Mechanism for Sound‐Driven Defensive Behavior and Anxiety

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram showing the Cbln2+ ICx–dPAG circuit for sound‐driven defensive and anxiety‐like behaviors. ABSTRACT The innate defense behaviors in response to threatening sounds play a fundamental role in survival. However, the neural circuits that detect threat‐relevant auditory cues and transform them into defensive behaviors remain poorly defined.

Multifunctional Ionic Liquid Enabling Cation Homogenization and Lead Chelation for Pure‐Iodide Wide‐Bandgap Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a multifunctional ionic liquid, [SO3H‐PMIm][OTf], that addresses A‐site cation inhomogeneity and lead toxicity in pure‐iodide wide‐bandgap perovskite solar cells. The additive enables homogeneous cation distribution, achieving 22.02% efficiency with 90% retention after 3000 h and reducing lead leakage by over 58%, thereby ...

SEC Mediates m6A Deposition and Transcription Pause Release to Drive Cell Identity Transition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The SEC promotes cell identity transitions by facilitating transcription pause release at key identity‐associated genes, including Klf4 and Myc during iPSC reprogramming and Nes and Tubb3 during ESC‐to‐neuroectodermal differentiation. During early iPSC reprogramming, this function additionally involves cooperation with METTL3‐associated m6A regulation.

Porphyrin‐Based Porous Materials for Antibacterial Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Porphyrin‐based porous materials have excellent photophysical properties and tunable structures for high‐efficiency antibacterial therapy. This review comprehensively discusses the structural design strategies and synthetic pathways of the four main types of porphyrin‐based porous materials, summarizes their cross‐domain antimicrobial applications, and

Engineering Spatially Localized Bioactive Microenvironments in Assembly Implants for Spatially Extended Bone Ingrowth

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An assembly porous titanium/β‐TCP implant is developed to establish a spatially programmable osteogenic microenvironment for enhanced osseointegration. By decoupling mechanical support from bioactive ion release, localized ionic gradients generated from the β‐TCP module direct osteogenic activity and bone ingrowth toward the porous titanium framework ...

Low‐Power Control Of Resistance Switching Transitions in First‐Order Memristors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Joule losses are a serious concern in modern integrated circuit design. In this regard, minimizing the energy necessary for programming memristors should be handled with care. This manuscript presents an optimal control framework, allowing to derive energy‐efficient programming voltage protocols for resistance switching devices. Following this approach,
