Liquid Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy: A Window into the Early Stages of Complex Material Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid‐phase transmission electron microscopy enables direct observation of nucleation and growth processes in solution. This review is dedicated to the remembrance of Helmut Cölfen and highlights recent studies on complex materials—oxides, biominerals, organic–inorganic crystals—which were central to his research activity. It summarizes key milestones,

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

Miniature fuel cells relieve gas pressure in sealed batteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
Miniature fuel cells within sealed silver zinc batteries consume evolved hydrogen and oxygen rapidly, preventing pressure rupturing. They do not significantly increase battery weight and they operate in all battery life phases.

Modulating Iridium Electronic Structure With High‐Valent Metal Doping for Efficient and Durable Acidic Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We synthesized a novel IrCuOx/MnO2 heterostructure co‐doped with high‐valent W and Mo atoms, achieving exceptional acidic stability and high mass activity. Owing to the synergistic effects of structural and electronic modulation, cooperative charge redistribution occurs across both the interface and the lattice.

Effects of ionomer chemical degradation on low-Pt proton exchange membrane fuel cells

open access: yesFuture Batteries
Free radicals are a class of reactive substances produced during the operation of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), which have a great impact on the durability of PEMFCs. Previous research on the fuel cell degradation mechanism mainly focused

Novel ETFE based radiation grafted poly(styrene sulfonic acid-co-methacrylonitrile) proton conducting membranes with increased stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Styrene radiation grafted ETFE based proton conducting membranes are subject to degradation under fuel cell operating conditions and show a poor stability. Lifetimes exceeding 250 h can only be achieved with crosslinked membranes.

Tissue‐Stimulator Platform for Electrically Stimulating Pancreatic β‐Cells for Long‐Term Functional Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present a tissue‐stimulator platform for seamless electrode integration with pancreatic tissue, applying uniform electrical stimulation through optimized design with biohybrid 3D printing. Advantageous effects of electrical stimulation on β‐cell function were observed, including enhanced calcium signaling, islet morphology, and maturation.

Improved Pt/CeO2 Electrocatalysts for Ethanol Electro-oxidation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2018
A simple and low-cost approach for the preparation of wide-gap (Eg = 3.43 eV), fine cerium dioxide crystals (CeO2, d = 8.1 nm), was developed in order to support Pt nanoparticles as electrocatalysts for ethanol oxidation.
