Establishing a Model Precursor System: Over a Decade of Research on Carbon Dots from the Citric Acid‐Urea System

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The citric acid/urea (CA‐Urea) precursor system offers a versatile, scalable route to carbon dots with tunable luminescence and multifunctionality. Mechanistic insights into precursor chemistry and reaction parameters have enabled doping, surface modification, and hybridization strategies, yielding CDs for luminescent devices, sensing, catalysis ...

Molecular dynamics studies of anomalous transport in rarefied gas flows [PDF]

, 2010
We investigate the thermodynamically non-equilibrium gas dynamics by measuring molecular free path distribution functions, inter-molecular collision rates and wall dependent mean free path (MFP) profiles using the molecular dynamics (MD) method.

Robust Polymer Hydrogels Improve Electric‐Fish‐Inspired Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Electric‐fish‐inspired hydrogel batteries based on ion‐concentration gradients offer an attractive route to soft power sources; however, the poor mechanical properties of existing hydrogels limit device assembly and performance. Here, we report poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate hydrogels that enable ion‐gradient batteries composed of
