Shear‐Induced Emergence of Aromatic Superlow‐Friction Interfaces in Amorphous Carbon: Triggering Chemical Impurities and Atomic‐Scale Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput quantum‐mechanical simulations reveal that amorphous carbon undergoes shear‐driven structural transformation into aromatic, graphene‐like interfaces. This mechanochemical process is governed by dopant chemistry: dopants with valency less than four promote the emergence of superlow‐friction amorphous graphene, whereas tetra‐valent ...

ETHNOPOLITICAL ASPECT OF LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT REFORM IN UKRAINE

Spatial development
The study examines the ethno-national aspects of the implementation administrative-territorial reform and the decentralization process in Ukraine. The essence of ethno-national policy, its orientation and purpose are defined. The legal framework was analyzed in the context of the implementation of the state ethno-national policy in the process of ...

Thermal Spin Coated PbS QD SWIR Imager for Non‐Invasive Glucose Monitoring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Thermal spin‐coating enables controlled film formation of PbS quantum dots, leading to denser packing, reduced defect‐assisted transport, and improved carrier extraction. The resulting photodetectors exhibit suppressed dark current, enhanced responsivity, and faster response.

Robust Amorphous MOF‐Based Aerogels Digital Biosensor for Sensitive Detection of Organophosphate Pesticides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We report a robust aerogel digital biosensor by integrating an enzyme‐mediated amorphous MOF within an aerogel matrix for on‐site pesticide detection. The enzyme‐mediated assembly strategy enables in situ tailoring of MOF into a porous amorphous structure, achieving both high stability and activity.

Microblasting Wound Dressings Mechanically Disrupt Polymicrobial Biofilms to Enhance Healing in Treatment‐Resistant Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Treatment‐resistant wounds caused by polymicrobial biofilms are refractory to conventional therapies due to the dense extracellular matrices. We developed μBLAST, a microblasting wound dressing that combines MnO2‐doped biosilica and a H2O2‐releasing mesh to generate localized oxygen microbubbles that mechanically disrupt biofilms.

Electrolyte Design for Simultaneous Interfacial Stabilization in Si||NCM811 Full Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐additive electrolyte (DAEL) system was optimized to regulate interfacial reactions in both Si anode and the NCM811 cathode. DAEL suppresses gas evolution and degradation, enabling stable interphases. These synergistic effects enhance electrochemical stability and extend battery cycle life in high‐energy lithium‐ion cells.

Dual‐Mode Conductive Hydrogel Sensor Combining Triboelectric and Piezoresistive Mechanisms for Signal Differentiation and Verification

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A hierarchical poly(vinyl alcohol)/polyaniline‐silver nanoparticle hydrogel is developed as a dual‐mode sensor to overcome single‐mechanism limitations. By synchronizing triboelectric and piezoresistive signals, this device differentiates between mechanical touch and environmental moisture, offering high sensitivity and real‐time signal decoupling ...
