Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Colloid‐Mediated Synthesis of Hierarchically Porous Amorphous Catalyst for Durable Industrial‐Scale Water Electrolysis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A colloid‐mediated electroless plating (CMEP) strategy is proposed to fabricate hierarchically porous, amorphous Fe‐doped NiWB electrocatalysts under ambient conditions. The in situ formation of Fe‐W‐O colloidal species guides the formation of robust, porous catalyst layers with excellent mass transfer and durability, sustaining 500 mA cm−2 for 2000 h,

N‐heterocyclic Carbenes as Adhesion Promoters on Aluminum Alloy 6061

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
N‐heterocyclic carbenes as novel non‐toxic surface primers for aluminum alloys for better adhesive bonding, because strong adhesive bonding shouldn't come at the cost of poisoning the human body. The impact of NHC functionalization on adhesive joint strength and durability is also evaluated using a single‐lap‐shear test, following continuous exposure ...

Ultra‐Improved Interfacial Strength Between Metallic Surface and Polyurethane via Cost‐Effective Anodizing Process

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
SAA significantly enhanced Al/PU bonding, increasing SLSS by up to 920% and fracture energy by 15 100% through optimized micro‐nano porous surfaces. RSM identified the optimal anodizing conditions, while ML confirmed sulfuric acid concentration and roughness as dominant predictors of strength.
