A Universal Way to Manipulate Droplet via Light‐Fueled Thermocapillary Convection

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A non‐contact light‐induced droplet manipulation strategy fueled by mid‐infrared (MIR) light irradiation is introduced. No additional additives and/or complex substrate are required. Here, thermocapillary convection, directly generated by temperature gradient at outer surface of droplet via localized surface heating, plays a key role to propel the ...

Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron

Preparation of atomically clean and flat Si(100) surfaces by low-energy ion sputtering and low-temperature annealing

, 2003
Si(100) surfaces were prepared by wet-chemical etching followed by 0.3-1.5keV Ar ion sputtering, either at elevated or room temperature. After a brief anneal under ultrahigh vacuum conditions, the resulting surfaces were examined by scanning tunneling ...

Electrically Binary and Ternary Convertible CMOS Inverter and Logic Gate Using Complementary Field‐Effect Transistors Based on Vertically Stacked MoS2/WSe2 n‐/p‐ Field‐Effect Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, a reconfigurable T‐CMOS inverter based on vertically stacked MoS2 and WSe2 MOSFETs with a gate‐tunable MoS2 resistor, enabling stable ternary logic, is demonstrated. The T‐CMOS inverter supports electrical switching between ternary and binary modes and is further extended to implement ternary NAND (NMIN) and NOR (NMAX) logic gates ...

Composites of Shellac and Silver Nanowires as Flexible, Biobased, and Corrosion‐Resistant Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...
