Redox dual‐defects (Cs substitution and O vacancies) in 2D hydrated WO3 steer O2 activation toward selective singlet oxygen evolution. WO‐CO achieves 8.6–15.8 times higher 1O2 production than single‐defect or pristine catalysts, enabling efficient pollutant mineralization via a pathway‐selective photocatalytic mechanism.

Mathematical Modeling for Optimizing the Tilt Angle of Solar Panels
Solar panels are more efficient when angled to maximize sunlight exposure. This paper investigates simple mathematical models to optimize the tilt angle, increasing energy production by 10–20%. Based on simple variables like the latitude and the seasonal position of the sun, these models then calculate the best tilts for projects as varied as powering ...

Nano‐Scale Characterization of Impurities Segregation in Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells
Cathodic polarization induces impurity segregation in Ni, forming an amorphous Na─Al─Si─O amorphous phase at grain boundaries. Under ultralow oxygen partial pressure, multiple elements dissolve, migrate, and reoxidize within the metal. A patterned model system provides direct nanoscale evidence, clarifying the mechanism of polarization‐driven impurity ...

Electrochemical etching provides an eco‐friendly alternative to hazardous HF methods for MXene production. This approach facilitates the selective isolation of the A‐layer from MAX phases with tunable surface terminations. Controlling voltage, electrolytes, temperature, and duration enables the optimal structural integrity. Nevertheless, existing scale
