One‐step 3D printing combined with in‐situ self‐assembly of behenic acid creates hierarchical polypropylene surfaces with micro‐ and nanostructures. The resulting material exhibits superhydrophobicity with a contact angle of 163 (±2)°, self‐healing, and high scratch resistance, while reducing initial bacterial adhesion by 87%. ABSTRACT Superhydrophobic

Modular Fabrication of Quantum‐Dot–Plasmonic Metasurfaces for Tailored Optical Modes
Our modular photonic architecture is illustrated using color‐coded building blocks representing colloidal quantum dots, gold nanoparticles, and thin films. This visual metaphor highlights our bottom‐up and top‐down fabrication approach, enabling the creation of tailored optical modes for optoelectronic applications.

ABSTRACT We study the effect of royal status—a historically rooted legal privilege enjoyed by hereditary monarchs and their families—on human longevity, a proxy of individuals' health capital. We disentangle the effect of royal status that encompassed serving as heads of state from that of other royal family members and compare it to their contemporary
