Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Dual‐Mode Electrophoretic Displays Enabled by Quantum Dot‐Decorated PR48:2 Pigment Particles and TiO2 for All‐Weather Visibility, Excellent Bistability, and Enhanced Readability

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel quantum dot electrophoretic display (QDEPD), which combines electro‐controlled reflection and optically‐triggered emission to achieve efficient multi‐modal switching within a single pixel. By incorporating multi‐component nanostructures, the system enhances functional integration and multi‐modal response capabilities.

Synergistic Microstructure and Dielectric Engineering of Recyclable Single‐Electrode Triboelectric Nanogenerators for Sustainable Smart Homes

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A recyclable triboelectric nanogenerator integrating a pseudo‐honeycomb microstructure with liquid metal doping achieves 120% higher output (122 mW m−2) and >90% retention over seven cycles, enabling self‐powered smart home functions. The performance of single‐electrode triboelectric nanogenerators (SE‐TENGs) is governed by the effective contact area ...

Enabling a Circular Water Transition: Identifying Governance Pathways for Wastewater Reuse

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over 80% of the world's wastewater is discharged untreated, making reuse a widely underutilised strategy for addressing water scarcity. Due to the complexity of implementing water reuse systems, supportive governance conditions are required to steer this process and overcome barriers.
