A Photonastic Prototissue Capable of Photo‐Mechano‐Chemical Transduction
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Mimicking energy transduction in prototissue assemblies remains a challenge of bottom‐up synthetic biology. In this work, prototissues integrating protocells with photothermal gold nanoparticle proto‐organelles and a thermoresponsive polymeric proto‐cortex are developed.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.In nitrogen vacancies‐rich nickel nitride (Ni3N‐VN), a local microenvironment of nitrogen vacancies and adjacent Ni sites is formed. The electron‐rich Ni‐sites can be converted to NiOOH at a lower potential, and urea adsorption on the electron‐deficient nitrogen vacancy region is conducive to its partial dissociation, conceiving to efficient urea ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This work introduces a versatile and straightforward approach for directly fabricating electrospun 3D nanofibrous sponge using a selection of solvents, avoiding potentially toxic additives or additional steps. The most important novelty in this study is a one‐step electrospinning process that simultaneously imparts three‐dimensionality and ...

New Perspectives on Semiconducting Conjugated Oligomers for Neuromodulation in Hydra vulgaris
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Semiconducting organic compounds, thiophene‐based, modify the rhythmic electrical activity of the cnidarian Hydra vulgaris acting on specific neuronal circuits. The ETE‐S trimer also forms electronically conducting wires in the living tissues of the animal.

Mitigating the water footprint of export cut flowers from the Lake Naivasha Basin, Kenya [PDF]
, 2010 Kenya’s cut-flower industry has been praised as an economic success as it contributed an annual average of US$ 141 million foreign exchange (7% of Kenyan export value) over the period 1996-2005 and about US$ 352 million in 2005 alone.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Polyvinyl pyrrolidone passivation enhances TiO2/CsPbI2Br interfaces, suppressing recombination and improving photodetector performance with faster response, higher photoresponsivity, and superior detectivity. Abstract Inorganic perovskites hold immense promise for optoelectronic applications, but their performance is often hindered by defects and trap ...
