Hydrogel Thermostat Inspired by Photoprotective Foliage Using Latent and Radiative Heat Control

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by Populus alba foliage, this hydrogel latent‐radiative thermostat (LRT) actively balances latent and radiative heat fluxes. An LRT switches solar reflectance, maintains high mid‐IR emissivity, and reversibly evaporates/regenerates water, while titanium oxide (TiO2) nanoparticles toughen the film.

Millimeter dust continuum emission unveiling the true mass of giant molecular clouds in the Small Magellanic Cloud

, 2007
CO observations have been so far the best way to trace molecular gas in external galaxies, but at low metallicity the gas mass deduced could be largely underestimated.

Wafer‐Scale Synthesis of Molecularly Engineered 2D Covalent Organic Framework Films for Highly‐Sensitive and Rapid‐Response Humidity Sensing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We report molecularly engineered 2D COF films for high‐performance humidity sensors. The developed COFTPT‐THTA ultrathin film features triazine‐functionalized π‐conjugated backbones and high‐density surface hydroxyl groups. This unique architecture facilitates an electron‐proton coupled transport mechanism.

Harnessing Chain Mobility via Protonation for Tough and Isotropic Hydrogel

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A protonation‐guided strategy enables ultra‐tough, isotropic PVA hydrogels by temporarily unlocking chain mobility via acidification and fixing homogeneous networks through salting‐out. The resulting materials simultaneously achieve high strength, extreme stretchability, and record‐level toughness, offering a generalizable route toward robust hydrogels

Why Is the Mechanism Underlying the Chiral‐Induced Selectivity Effect Still Challenging?

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The chiral‐induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is observed in many experimental configurations and for different materials. However, there are theoretical challenges in attempting to explain those results. A qualitative framework for explaining all the results is presented.

Global Collapses and Expansions in Star-Forming Clouds

, 2009
Spectral molecular line profile observations of star-forming molecular clouds sometimes show distinct red asymmetric double-peaked molecular line profiles with weaker blue peaks and stronger red peaks.
