Ethical Precision in Nanoscale Brain Interfacing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As brain interfaces approach the nanoscale, precision no longer only measures—it knows, predicts, and potentially reshapes the mind. This work argues that traditional ethics fails under such conditions and proposes a shift toward continuous, operation‐based governance using the recovery–discovery framework to track, constrain, and responsibly steer ...

Multiferroic‐Centric Materials and Systems Engineering for Battery Applications: An Insight Into Mechanisms, Strategies, and Characterizations

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multiferroic order parameters – polarization, magnetization, and ferroelastic strain – are positioned as dynamic design variables for batteries. Their mechanistic roles, practical tuning through fabrication and external fields, and ferroic‐resolved characterization routes are unified into a closed‐loop framework, revealing how coupled ferroic responses

Design of Photocatalytic Composite Coatings for Formaldehyde Removal Based on the Visual Effects of Wood Furniture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work develops photocatalytic coatings for indoor formaldehyde removal on wood surfaces. It explores coating‐induced color variations and visual perception via eye‐tracking tests. Combined with XGBoost and Bayesian optimization, an intelligent design framework is established to guide the optimization of visually friendly wood photocatalytic ...
