Exploring the Potential of Zero‐Dimensional Carbon Nanomaterials in Photoluminescent, Electrochemiluminescent and Electrochemical Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Zero‐dimensional carbon nanomaterials are presented as multifunctional platforms linking structure, property, and sensing performance. Surface engineering and heteroatom doping modulate electron‐transfer and luminescent behavior, enabling electrochemical, photoluminescent, and electrochemiluminescent detection. Fundamental design principles, analytical

Electronic Structure Modulation Induced by Asymmetric Cu─Ni Centers in a π‐Conjugated Triazine MOF

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A π‐conjugated H3TATB‐based asymmetric bimetallic CuNi‐MOF was developed as an efficient electrocatalyst for alkaline hydrogen evolution. Benefiting from synergistic Cu–Ni interactions, enhanced charge transfer, and stabilized active sites, CuNi‐MOF delivers superior HER performance with low overpotential, improved kinetics, and 24 h durability.

Criticality safety of fuel assemblies with missing fuel rods

open access: yesAnnals of Nuclear Energy
International audience ; The present work is concerned with the problem of determining the reactivity of an assembly from which an unknown number of fuel pins are removed at random locations. Because it is usually designed to be under-moderated, the reactivity of an incomplete assembly will pass by an optimum when the number and position of the missing

On–Off Switchable Micromotors for Use in Steerable Microvehicles

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Electrically controllable micromotors and microvehicles are developed by tuning the diffusion of the fuel. Self‐propelled micromotors using bubble propulsion show great promise for miniaturized devices with multiuse purposes such as cargo delivery and sensing. However, there is currently no method to electrically switch the micromotors on or off. Here,

Impact of revised RG 1.183 on source terms and radiological consequences of rod ejection accident for the HRP1000 reactor

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Nuclear Reactor Design and Technology
This paper compares and analyzes the impact of the revised RG 1.183 on the source term and radioactive consequences of the rod ejection accident. The revision of RG 1.183 has resulted in changes to key assumptions in the source term analysis of the rod ...
