What Does “STEM” Mean to Students? Exploring the Interplay Between Self‐Efficacy, Extracurricular Activities, Subject Associations, and Academic Intentions in Secondary School

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive discourse in educational research and practice, inconsistencies persist in students' perception of, and engagement with, STEM subjects. This study investigates how secondary school students perceive STEM disciplines, and which factors modulate their self‐efficacy and academic intentions. The survey (n = 853) revealed a widely

Surface Ligand Engineering in Quantum Dot Photocatalysis: Mechanisms, Design Principles, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Chemical Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 2, December 2026.
Surface ligands govern quantum dot photocatalysis through thermodynamic band‐edge tuning, kinetic charge‐transfer regulation, and microenvironmental control. Rational ligand engineering, using short‐chain, inorganic, conjugated, or dual‐ligand systems, enables efficient solar fuel production, selective organic transformations, environmental remediation,

Prevalence of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Australia, 2010–2022: A Population‐Based Study Using Linked National Administrative Health Data

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Volume 78, Issue 10, Page 1438-1448, October 2026.
Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogenous inflammatory condition with widely varying global prevalence estimates. The frequency of SLE in the general population of Australia has been reported to be notably lower than contemporary estimates in countries such as the United States or United Kingdom, at 19 to 39 per 100,000 as opposed ...

Effect of Damp Heat Aging on Solder Interconnection Reliability and Photoluminescence Degradation of Polycrystalline Silicon Solar Cells for Solar‐Powered UAV Applications

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
Damp heat aging degraded both solder interconnections and silicon solar cells, leading to increased electrical resistance and reduced photoluminescence intensity. Among the solder alloys evaluated, SnAgCu exhibited the most stable electrical performance, making it a promising candidate for improving the long‐term reliability of solar‐powered UAVs ...

Toward a Standardized Classification of Surface Defects in the Coating and Drying Processes of Lithium‐Ion Battery Electrode Manufacturing

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.
Surface defects during coating and drying are a major cause of scrap in lithium‐ion battery production. Using digital optical microscopy, a multilayer catalog is developed that describes six defect classes with quantitative features such as size, depth, and wall angle.
