Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We present a novel proteolysis‐targeting chimera (PROTAC) system conjugated to lipoic acid gold nanoclusters (PLANC), designed to degrade pTau, regulate inflammatory signaling, and effectively traverse the blood‐brain barrier (BBB). PLANC degraded pTau at various phosphorylation sites, with mechanistic studies confirming proteasome‐mediated degradation

Janus Photonic Graphics by Stratified Assembly of Two Distinct Colloids
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Double‐sided Janus photonic micropatterns with vivid structural colors are fabricated through a single‐step bottom‐up strategy. Density‐driven stratification and depletion‐mediated crystallization of PMMA and PS binary colloids lead to exclusive lattices on opposite surfaces under centrifugal force.

Leakage through defects in geomembrane liners under high hydraulic heads
, 2008 textDams are among the most critical of civil engineering structures and are susceptible to damage due to seepage. Geomembranes have been used to minimize seepage problems in dams since 1959. However, geomembranes are vulnerable to damage, in the form of

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A high‐Zn2+‐transference hydrogel electrolyte of ex‐PDADAM is developed via anion exchange at quaternary ammonium sites, achieving high Zn2+ transference number (0.86), ionic conductivity (8.10 mS cm−1), and toughness (51.25 MJ m−3). Symmetric cells are operated stably for over 2000 h, while flexible pouch cells retain 90.9% capacity after 300 cycles ...

The Interaction of Turbine Inter-Platform Leakage Flow with the Mainstream Flow [PDF]
, 2007 Individual nozzle guide vanes (NGVs) in modern aero engines are often cast as a single piece with integral hub and casing endwalls. When in operation there is a leakage flow through the chord-wise inter-platform gaps.

Interface Effects in Ultrathin Silicon on Insulator Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work establishes a systematic framework to discriminate how bulk and interface phenomena affect charge transport in ultrathin P‐doped silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) films. For Si films below 15 nm, electrical characterization demonstrates that interface states drive charge transport, shifting the metal‐insulator transition (MIT) critical dopant ...
