Microlasers Made Entirely from Edible Substances

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Several types of microlasers made completely out of edible substances are developed. They can be embedded directly into edible products and enable the sensing of various parameters, including sugar concentration, pH, the presence of bacteria, and exposure to too‐high temperatures.

Data‐Driven Lithium Salt Design for Long‐Cycle Lithium Metal Battery

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a data‐driven model to predict Coulombic efficiency and lithium thickness evolution in lithium metal batteries using electrolyte composition and DFT‐derived descriptors. Machine learning models, especially XGBoost and random forest, reduce prediction error by over 50% compared to models using only structural information.

Bifunctional WO3 Photoelectrodes Decorated by Inkjet Printing for Solar Supercapacitors

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
WO3 bifunctional photoelectrodes, produced by screen printing and then superficially decorated by inkjet printing, are successfully applied to prepare solar supercapacitors. Under illumination, the areal capacitance is enhanced thanks to the positive contribution of the photogenerated charges and the higher exposed area; its value becomes even more ...
