Bioinspired Flexible and Stretchable Coil Structure from Ti3C2Tx MXene/AgNPs‐Functionalized Piezoelectric Nanofibers for Enhanced Energy Harvesting

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Ti3C2Tx MXene and Ag nanoparticles are embedded into piezoelectric nanofibers to form a stretchable, self‐powered coil that converts mechanical deformation into electrical energy. The device enables controllable power output during stretching and release while maintaining a compact and lightweight architecture, making it suitable for miniaturized ...

First results from high redshift quasar searches in VIKING [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis presents the discovery of the first luminous z & 6.5 quasars in the VISTA kilo-degree Infrared Galaxy Survey (VIKING). After some basic quality control, quasar selection is investigated via use of initial data supplementedwith ...

Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Low temperature detectors have been a subject of intense interest to the scientific community over the last decade. These detectors work at very low temperatures, often well below 1 Kelvin, to minimize the noise in the measurement of photons.

Polycarbazole–NiOOH Interfacial Engineering of BiVO4 Photoanodes for Efficient and Stable Solar Water Splitting

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A π‐conjugated carbazole (p‐CBZ) layer is electro‐polymerized on BiVO4 to form a p–n heterojunction that enhances charge separation and suppresses surface recombination, while a NiOOH co‐catalyst accelerates oxygen evolution kinetics. The synergistic BVO/p‐CBZ/NiOOH photoanode delivers a high photocurrent density and long‐term stability for efficient ...

The Search for Stable Nickel: Investigating the Origins of Type Ia Supernovae with Late-time Near-infrared Spectroscopy from the Carnegie Supernova Project-II

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Producing stable ^58 Ni in Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) requires sufficiently high-density conditions that are not predicted for all origin scenarios, so examining the distribution of ^58 Ni using the near-infrared (NIR) [Ni II ] 1.939 μ m line may ...

Artificial intelligence–driven decoupling structure–activity relationship for lithium‐ion batteries

open access: yesInfoScience, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence can efferently accelerate the high‐throughput screening of battery materials, the analysis of multiphase mechanisms, and the precise prediction of capacity and cycle life. This review systematically summarizes the applications of machine learning (ML) in decoupling the complex structure‐activity relationships of lithium‐ion ...
