Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A solution‐processed distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) film, integrated via block copolymer (BCP) self‐assembly, enhances photon recycling in BiVO4 photoanodes for improved photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance. By tuning lamellar structures using lactic acid and cross‐linking density, the DBR film optimally shifts working wavelengths, boosting ...

Relativistic non-equilibrium thermodynamics revisited
, 2005 Relativistic irreversible thermodynamics is reformulated following the conventional approach proposed by Meixner in the non-relativistic case. Clear separation between mechanical and non-mechanical energy fluxes is made.

Chemo‐Mechanical Coupling in Hydrogels: Dynamics in the Diffusion‐Limited Regime
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A time‐dependent continuum model is developed to capture the transient swelling dynamics of chemo‐mechanical hydrogels. By coupling chemical reactions, solvent transport, and polymer deformation, volume phase transitions, reaction kinetics, and transient mechanical instabilities are analyzed.

Thermodynamic universality of quantum Carnot engines
, 2015 The Carnot statement of the second law of thermodynamics poses an upper limit on the efficiency of all heat engines. Recently, it has been studied whether generic quantum features such as coherence and quantum entanglement could allow for quantum devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A coacervate charged polymer network is designed to regulate Coulomb interactions for stabilizing silicon anodes. By tuning electrostatic interactions, the binders enhance adhesion, stress dissipation, and interfacial stability. The binder with the strongest Coulomb interactions enables high areal capacities and stable full‐cell cycling with Ni‐rich ...
