Bioinspired Janus Evaporator for Efficient Desalination of Saline‐Alkali and Seawater Through Photothermal‐Capillary Effects

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work combines textile technology to ingeniously integrate a hydrophobic PP/MXene photothermal sheath with a hydrophilic cotton core into functionalized yarns, successfully developing a Janus core‐sheath evaporator (PM‐CSY‐F). The evaporator demonstrates outstanding evaporation rates and efficient desalination efficiency when applied to treating ...

T‐Shaped 8‐Aryl(ethynyl)‐Substituted Psoralens With Tunable Charge‐Transfer Absorption

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Starting from 8‐methoxypsoralen, new 8‐arylated and 8‐alkynylated psoralen derivatives are accessible by cross‐coupling. These T‐shaped π‐expanded chromophores are luminescent and photophysics reveal a highly polar excited state with tunable charge‐transfer character.

Consecutive (Pseudo‐)Four‐Component Synthesis of Meta‐ and Ortho‐Biaryl Triarylamines with Tunable Emission and Redox Properties

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
The combination of Suzuki and Buchwald–Hartwig coupling in (pseudo‐)four‐component reactions paves an efficient one‐pot route to twisted, redox‐active triarylamine (TAA) emitters. Biaryl substitution patterns and para‐substituents serve as key levers for tuning redox potentials, as well as absorption and emission energies, complemented and, by time ...

Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Decentralized Wind Energy Systems as Catalysts for Urban Resilience: A Design Framework

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confronting the escalating extreme weather events (EWEs) and intensifying winds, this study proposes an active response to these issues by exploring decentralized wind energy production for Peng Chau Island, Hong Kong. It integrates theoretical perspectives on energy democracy—empowering local communities through energy autonomy—and urban ...

Waves of Uncertainty: Crude Oil Under Geopolitical, Economic, and ESG Turbulence

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Dynamic copula and wavelet coherence reveal that geopolitical, economic, and sustainability uncertainties significantly shape crude oil price co‐movements. Long‐term coherence, especially post‐2015, highlights the growing role of ESG risks alongside geopolitical shocks and economic crises in global energy risk transmission.

Unlocking the Potential of Carbon Nitride (CxNy) Electrocatalysts in Hydrogen Evolution, Oxygen Evolution and Overall Water Splitting

Exploration, EarlyView.
Electrocatalytic water splitting with carbon nitride (CxNy) materials has gained attention due to their synthesis, structure, and robust application. Among various CxNy types, g‐C3N4 is the most stable allotrope and extensively researched. This review explores recent advances in HER, OER, and OWS, focusing on defect engineering, structural engineering,
