The Hierarchical Structure of Sheep Wool and Its Impact on Physical Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sheep wool, a prevalent α‐keratinous fiber, is an essential model for studying protein‐based fibers. Its genetic diversity across breeds enables the establishment of multiscale structure‐property relationships, uncovering previously elusive insights into wool's hierarchical structure.

High‐Density Boron Nitride Nanotube Composites via Surfactant‐Stabilized Lyotropic Liquid Crystals for Enhanced Space Radiation Shielding

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
High‐density BNNT films, enabling mechanical robustness and high space radiation shielding effectiveness, are fabricated using surfactant‐stabilized BNNT liquid crystal. Simulations indicate that a 50 g cm−2 BNNT film can reduce radiation exposure by 56% compared to zero shielding, potentially doubling the duration of astronaut missions on the lunar ...

Modelling Thermal Halide Exchange of Perovskite Powders With and Without BMIMBF4 From an Interdiffusion Perspective

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Halide diffusion limits the stability of hybrid halide perovskites for optoelectronic applications and thus needs to be quantified. This study presents an effective interdiffusion model to obtain time‐dependent diffusion coefficients for I− and Br− diffusion from in situ X‐ray diffraction data during the formation of a solid solution MAPbIxBr3‐x from ...

Supernovae from Single Stars and Interacting Binaries

There has been dramatic recent progress in our understanding of core-collapse supernovae. This, for the first time, has allowed us to connect supernova progenitors with their supernova explosions (if successful) and their remnants. Some of these predictions are currently testable with O4 LIGO observations.

Differentiating the Synergistic Interactions Between Li+ Salts and Cyclic to Linear Carbonate Ratios to Enable Wide‐Temperature Performance of Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The coordination in carbonate solvents and degradation products of lithium difluoro(oxolato) borate (LiDFOB) salt enables sufficient passivation of both LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811) cathode and graphite anode in the absence of ethylene carbonate (EC).

Photoresponsive Gas‐Permeable Membranes: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Prospects

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Photoresponsive gas‐permeable membranes can be potentially used for smart packing, carbon capture, hydrogen purification, and optical gas valves due to their remote and non‐contact activation, precise spatial and temporal control, and reversible switching capabilities.
