Application of retardation-modulation polarimetry in studies of nanocomposite materials
We demonstrate an application of retardation-modulation polarimetry in studies of nanocomposite materials. Molecular ordering is explored on both nonchiral and chiral liquid crystals (LCs) in the bulk state and embedded into parallel-arrays of ...

Conjugated Polymers Engineered for Flexible/Stretchable Electronics
This review highlights glass transition temperature (Tg) as the central parameter linking molecular structure to device performance in conjugated polymers. By tuning backbone rigidity, side‐chain architecture, and dynamic bonding, Tg governs the balance between π–π stacking–enabled charge transport and mechanical compliance.

Gelation of Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride) Solutions in Native and Organically Modified Silica Nanopores
The purpose of this study is to highlight the surface and size effects of the nanopores on the thermodynamics and kinetics of gelation. The effects have been probed by applying differential scanning calorimetry to poly(vinylidene fluoride) solutions in ...

Solvent‐assisted crystallization transforms PEDOT:PSS into a conductive nanoporous scaffold that enables volumetric incorporation and utilization of Pt nanoparticles. Unlike surface‐limited Pt only electrodes, the PP–Pt electrode allows ion penetration and bulk catalyst activation, improving precious‐metal utilization and sustaining electrocatalytic ...

Restructuring polymers via nanoconfinement and subsequent release
During the past several years my students and I have been utilizing certain small-molecule hosts to create nanostructured polymers. This is accomplished by first forming noncovalently bonded inclusion complexes (ICs) between these small-molecule hosts ...

Entropy-driven enhanced self-diffusion in confined reentrant supernematics
We present a molecular dynamics study of reentrant nematic phases using the Gay-Berne-Kihara model of a liquid crystal in nanoconfinement. At densities above those characteristic of smectic A phases, reentrant nematic phases form that are characterized ...

This review highlights the integration of metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and two‐dimensional (2D) materials through dimensional interface engineering. By addressing intrinsic limitations like poor conductivity and agglomeration, these hybrid architectures optimize interfacial charge and mass transport.

ABSTRACT This study successfully prepared a high‐palladium (Pd)‐loading (51 wt%) Pd/Al2O3 composite through multiple wet impregnation. The material exhibited excellent hydrogen isotope separation performance, with metal–support interactions endowing it with a higher plateau pressure and lower desorption temperature.
