China's Low‐Carbon Energy Transition Over the Past Two Decades: Experiences and Implications
China's low‐carbon energy transition features a brief decline and subsequent rebound in coal consumption, alongside the rapid expansion of renewable energy. This study develops a stage‐based analytical framework to explain this evolution from the perspectives of economic development, energy security, and environmental sustainability, revealing how ...

Entropy‐Driven Physical Amplification in Multivalent Biosensing
Detecting scarce molecules usually demands enzymatic amplification such as PCR. A statistical‐mechanical theory now reveals a purely physical alternative: distributing a fixed binding strength over more linker arms exponentially lowers the concentration at which multivalent sensors switch on.

From Sensing Mechanisms to System Co‐Design: Graphene‐Based Sensors and Readout Circuits
This review establishes a unified PS–EQ–RF framework linking graphene sensing mechanisms, native electrical outputs, and output‐specific readout circuits. Voltage‐, current‐, resistance‐, and capacitance‐type sensing systems are systematically classified to guide architecture selection, low‐noise design, system co‐design, and practical integration ...

An enzyme–nitric oxide (NO) co‐regulatory strategy reprograms pathological extracellular matrix (ECM)–fibroblast crosstalk in hypertrophic scars. Enzymatic degradation of pre‐existing ECM relieves aberrant mechanical cues, while NO‐mediated fibroblast phenotypic modulation restrains excessive collagen synthesis.
