Abstract Photochemical C−C coupling reactions can be tailored to industrial chemical processes and preparations of pharmaceuticals. Recent approaches in this area are limited to using precious transition metal coordination complexes that facilitate light absorption and redox processes with benchtop chemicals. Herein, we propose a paradigm that involves

Bent‐Core Liquid Crystal‐Based Heterojunctions as Gas Sensors
Bilayer heterojunction devices are developed using liquid crystals and a molecular semiconductor. By employing banana‐shaped liquid crystals as a sublayer with lutetium bisphthalocyanine (LuPc2) on top, sensors sensitive to ammonia are achieved, detecting levels below 10 ppm, and as low as 2 ppm for specific devices.

The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

An Aerial–Aquatic Hitchhiking Robot with Remora‐Inspired Tactile Sensors and Thrust Vectoring Units
An untethered aerial–aquatic hitchhiking robot that can be remotely controlled for flying, swimming, and transiting air–water boundaries rapidly (0.16 s), is presented. Notably, it can autonomously attach to various surfaces in both air and water environments using a remora‐inspired suction disc with flexible tactile sensors.
