Polydopamine‐Wool Textiles for Sustainable Interfacial Solar Vapor Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A natural wool textile engineered for high solar absorbance and a fast‐wicking structure serves as a highly efficient, single‐layer system for interfacial solar vapor generation (ISVG). This integrated evaporator seamlessly couples rapid water transport with continuous evaporation. Ultimately, this sustainable photothermal design offers a scalable, eco‐

Towards robust and repeatable methods for studying interactions between jellyfish and microplastics

, 2022
Studies of microplastics are increasing exponentially and standard protocols are only beginning to be established. Jellyfish are considered susceptible to ingesting microplastics because they feed on small, suspended particles.

Ultrafast Micrometric Laser Structuring of Polymer Surfaces for Highly Organized Skeletal Muscle Tissue Modeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Standard cell culture supports were functionalized by laser‐structuring to generate advanced topographies tailored to skeletal muscle tissue. The physicochemical modifications of the polymeric surfaces and their interactions with cells were thoroughly investigated, confirming both safety and effectiveness in guiding muscle cell organization.

Decoupling Stable Cyclic Deformation From Defect Accumulation in Metals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Introducing amorphous nanoparticles into a metal matrix enables a cyclic deformation regime where strain hardening and defect accumulation are decoupled. These nanoparticles act as dislocation sinks and undergo reversible shear transformations, sustaining microstructural stability over millions of cycles.

Spatial–Temporal Characterization of Microplastics in the Surface Water of an Urban Ephemeral River

Rivers are recognized as major unilateral pathways of microplastic transport between terrestrial and marine ecosystems, yet our understanding of their dispersal patterns over space and through time as they migrate from source to sink is limited.
