Deciphering Structure‐Bubble‐Mass Transfer Relationships in Water Electrolysis Through Electrode Morphology Regulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Electrode morphology is shown to govern oxygen‐bubble dynamics and interfacial mass transfer during water electrolysis. Positive‐curvature nanoneedles promote rapid release of small bubbles, sustain electrolyte renewal, and minimize mass‐transport losses, whereas flat and concave architectures increasingly retain bubbles.

Reversible, Chemically Gated FRET via Ligand‐Activated Acceptors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorogen binding turns the compact FAST tag into a tunable FRET acceptor, with ligand chemistry programming spectral overlap and excited‐state lifetimes. Fluorescence‐lifetime imaging reads out energy transfer through the shortened donor lifetime, while simply adding or washing out the dye switches FRET on and off, reversibly mapping the supramodular ...
