High‐Fidelity Directed Self‐Assembly Using Higher‐χ Polystyrene‐Block‐Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) Derivatives for Dislocation‐Free Sub‐10 nm Features

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The relationship between primary polymer structure and pattern quality in the directed self‐assembly of chemically modified polystyrene‐block‐poly(methyl methacrylate) derivatives is explored. The perpendicular lamellae are aligned, with a periodicity below 20 nm. No parallel orientations or dislocations form, and line patterns are well defined over an

A Proof‐of‐Principle Demonstration: Exploring the Effect of Anode Layer Microstructure on the Alkaline Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Highlighting the importance of anode microstructure for alkaline OER, ultrasonic spray coating is applied at two different temperatures. This proof‐of‐concept approach yielded varied morphologies, structures, wettability and mechanical strength. These variations led to noticeable performance changes in activity after 8 h of measurements, comparing the ...

Engineering the Metal/Oxide Interfacial O‐Filling Effect to Tailor Oxygen Spillover for Efficient Acidic Water Oxidation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The oxygen spillover from Ir to the oxide support with interfacial oxygen vacancies during OER is revealed. These interfacial oxygen vacancies as an oxygen transport zone not only regulate the in situ Ir catalytic structure toward boosted activity but also suppress Ir over‐oxidation via directional OH‐filling effects, thereby ensuring overall high ...
