Emerging of Anomalous Higher‐Order Topological Phases in Altermagnet/Topological Insulator Heterostructure by Floquet Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We combine altermagnet with topological insulators and subject the structure to Floquet driving. This breaks time‐reversal symmetry and creates a new type of higher‐order topological insulator. Its key feature is the emergence of programmable “0/π‐corner modes” that can be controlled by magnetic field direction, offering a novel dynamic platform for ...

Behavioural public policies and charitable giving [PDF]

, 2018
Some of the challenges in Sanders et al. (this issue) can be aptly illustrated by means of charity nudges, that is, nudges designed to increase charitable donations. These nudges raise many ethical questions.

Outstanding 1200 °C Oxidation Resistance in a Novel Multi‐Principal Element Alloy via Lattice Distortion‐Induced Diffusion Suppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The unique lamellar structure of the eutectic alloy promotes selective oxidation of Al initially, while lattice distortion‐induced diffusion suppression slows oxide growth during steady state. Combining these strategies, a Multi‐Principal Element Alloy with excellent oxidation resistance at 1200℃ was designed.

A Si‐MoSe2 Heterostructured Anode with Enhanced Thermal Transport and Electrochemical Performance for Liquid and All‐Solid‐State Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemically bonded Si@MoSe2@C heterointerfaces with robust Si─Se─Mo bonds enable high‐performance Si anodes. Lattice‐matched MoSe2 on porous Si with carbon‐protective coating delivers 1054 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles and 99.5% Coulombic efficiency over 400 cycles.

Encouraging pro-environmental behaviours: a review of methods and approaches. ESRI Working Paper No. 645 December 2019 [PDF]

, 2019
Many urgent environmental problems can be mitigated with more sustainable use of resource. An acknowledgement of which is a growing interest among policy practitioners in encouraging pro-environmental behaviour change initiatives. The effect of anthropic

Redefining the Health Risk of Battery Materials Through a Biologically Transformed Metal Mixture

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inhaled NCM particles undergo lysosomal degradation, releasing complex ion mixtures that induce systemic impact. The impact is determined by a critical balance between antagonistic Ni‐Co interactions and synergistic Mn effects. To capture these complexities in risk assessment, we develop an IAI model, ensuring a more accurate quantitative risk ...

Diffusion Characteristics of Ru and Oxygen Vacancies in Ta2O5 for Resistive Random Access Memory Devices: A Density Functional Theory Investigation

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Atomistic analysis of ruthenium (Ru) and oxygen vacancy (OV) diffusion in Ta₂O₅‐based memristors is performed. DFT calculations demonstrate interstitial Ru in Ta₂O₅ has lower diffusion barriers and formation energies than OVs, enhancing mobility and stability.

Insights on SEI Growth and Properties in Na‐Ion Batteries via Physically Driven Kinetic Monte Carlo Model

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The novel kinetic Monte Carlo model presented here incorporates spatially‐ and time‐dependent electrical potential, which enables the precise study of the solid electrolyte interphase formation in Na‐ion batteries. The effects of electrolyte composition and charging conditions on the growth and behavior of the solid electrolyte interphase during the ...
