Non‐Additive Criteria Assessment in Sustainability Evaluation of High Entropy Alloys: A Toxicity‐Weighted Framework

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Sustainability assessment requires methodologies that appropriately distinguish between additive and non‐additive material properties. A toxicity‐weighted scoring system is developed and applied that accounts for the disproportionate influence of highly toxic constituents through nonlinear weighting functions, providing more realistic estimates than ...

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Material Coupling in Hybrid Neuromorphic Devices: From Fundamentals to System‐Level Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid neuromorphic devices utilize heterointerfaces between emerging semiconductors, where charge transfer and trapping, ion or defect modulation, and photogating are translated into synaptic functions. This paper discusses coupling strategies that tailor interfacial electronic and ionic properties in organic semiconductors, metal oxides, two ...

Measuring Blood Plasma Glutamine Levels Using a Nanopore‐Based Sensor

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Glutamine (GLN) is a biomarker useful for predicting toxic ammonia accumulation. Here, we used a biosensor based on the Cytolysin A (ClyA) nanopore coupled with the GLN‐specific protein substrate‐binding domain 2 (SBD2) to demonstrate real‐time measurement of GLN in blood plasma, highlighting the potential for future point‐of‐care applications ...
