Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Synergistic SnSe2@Ti3C2Tx MXene Heterostructured Separator for Highly Efficient Polysulfide Adsorption, Catalytic Redox Acceleration, and Enhanced Electrochemical Stability in Advanced Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A multifunctional SnSe2@MXene heterostructure coated on a separator serves as a catalytic interlayer in Li‐S batteries. This design synergistically integrates the strong polysulfide adsorption and catalytic activity of SnSe2 with the high electrical conductivity of the MXene matrix, effectively suppressing the shuttle effect and enabling long‐term ...

Co‐Firing Slow Solidification Process for Growing Indium‐Doped Cs3Cu2I5 Single Crystals With Record‐Breaking X‐Ray Detection Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A novel brand‐new co‐firing slow solidification process has been used to prepare Cs3Cu2I5: In single crystals (SCs), which demonstrate record‐breaking X‐ray detection performance. The regular‐shaped Cs3Cu2I5: In wafer obtains a high light yield (74 368 Ph MeV−1), which is the highest related to indium‐doped Cu‐based perovskites.

Low‐threshold FAPbBr3 lasers based on a dual‐additive strategy

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This study developes a dual‐additive strategy to fabricate high‐quality FAPbBr3 perovskite films, exhibiting a low surface RMS roughness of 1.36 nm and a high photoluminescence quantum efficiency of 63.6%. Based on the superior film, lasing with a record‐low threshold of 15.5 μJ/cm2 for FAPbBr3 under nanosecond‐pulsed pumping at room temperature are ...
