Blasting effects of cross‐fault deep‐buried excavation on adjacent existing tunnel stability

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on the theoretical analysis of cylindrical wave propagation in a deep rock mass in the fault with a filling layer, the calculation method of peak particle velocity caused by wave propagation in the existing tunnel is established. The viscoelastic characteristics of a rock mass are examined in the analysis.

Microscopic time‐dependent mechanical behavior of shale derived from nanoindentation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study conducted grid nanoindentation creep tests to systematically analyze the microscopic creep behaviors of shale. Based on the analysis of creep strain rate sensitivity, the primary mechanism of microscopic creep in shale was found to be the extension and closure of microcracks.

Stepwise Optimization of Thermoelectric Performance in Cu3SbSe4‐Based Compounds via Alloying and Hierarchical Structuring

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Under the stepwise optimization strategy, (Sn, Te) co‐alloying functions as the primary initiative to enhance the power factor (PF), while the subsequent incorporation of AgCuTe operates as a synergistic maneuver to suppress lattice thermal conductivity (κlat), thereby concomitantly boosting the dimensionless figure of merit (ZT).

Bio‐Inspired Ordered WO3 Nano‐Helixes Enable Multi‐Band Electrochromic Smart Windows with Ultrafast Switching and Robust Cyclability

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Biomimetic ordered nano‐helix WO3 films enable multi‐band electrochromic photothermal management across the visible, near‐infrared, mid‐ and long‐wave infrared spectra, with ultrafast switching (<3 s) and robust durability (>10 000 cycles). These findings establish new paradigms for next‐generation photothermal management systems and energy‐efficient ...

GaIn‐Induced Polarization Control in PVDF for High‐Efficiency Energy Harvesting and Instantaneous Wireless Sensing

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study presents a liquid metal–engineered β‐PVDF composite enabling high‐performance piezoelectric–triboelectric nanogenerators. Guided by MD/DFT simulations, GaIn doping promotes β‐phase formation and dipole alignment, while native oxides enhance charge retention.

Low‐Coordination Solvation Engineering Enables Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work introduces a kind of low‐coordination solvent, dimethyl carbonate (DMC), to replace a part of DMSO and DMF. DMC substitutes a part of DMSO to coordinate with PbI2 to change the chemical environment of PbI2. What is more, DMC promotes the formation of the nucleation of α‐FAPbI3 crystals.

Efficient Kesterite Solar Cells via Scalable Doctor‐Blading of 2‐Methoxyethanol‐Based Molecular Ink

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A new record efficiency of 13.26% has been achieved for doctor‐bladed CZTSSe solar cells, fabricated for the first time from an MOE‐based molecular ink in ambient air. Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) thin‐film solar cells have garnered significant interest owing to their appealing properties, such as earth‐abundant composition, environmental friendliness, high
