Croatian pitch-accents: fact and fiction

, 2019
Standard Croatian is a normatively described high-prestige dialect, which most Croatians in public life attempt to acquire, and which is taught in schools. It has four pitch accents, long/short rising/falling. We present acoustic and perceptual analyses of dana from a wide range of speakers from different dialect back-grounds, showing that even for ...

Designing Scalable Mechano‐Virucidal Nanostructured Acrylic Surfaces for Enhanced Viral Inactivation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Can a surface be designed to physically break viruses? This study explores how nanoscale geometry—specifically the spacing of tiny pillars—can determine whether viruses remain intact or rupture. Using flexible acrylic and a scalable fabrication process, the authors develop nanopillared, transparent surfaces that show strong antiviral activity without ...

An ATP‐Mediated Antibiotic β‐Peptide Nanofiber That Kills Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria via a Multistage Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The 3K‐AP system forms infinite supramolecular fibrils that undergo controlled degradation into shorter fragments upon enzymatic hydrolysis. Multitechnique imaging reveals a stepwise bacteriolytic mechanism involving bacterial entrapment, disassembly into lethal constructs, and associated extracellular vesicle release, highlighting the dynamic ...

Engineered Strain in 2D Materials by Direct Growth on Deterministically Patterned Grayscale Topographies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strain is a proven technique for modifying the bandgap and enhancing carrier mobility in 2D materials. Most current strain engineering techniques rely on the post‐growth transfer of these atomically thin materials from growth substrates to target surfaces, limiting their integration into nanoelectronics.

Mass‐Produced and High‐Performance Nanowell Biosensor Fabricated via Semiconductor Manufacturing for Rapid and Accurate COVID‐19 Diagnosis in the Clinical Field

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A semiconductor‐fabricated nanowell biosensor enables rapid, scalable, and highly reproducible detection of SARS‐CoV‐2 antigens from nasal swabs within ∼10 minutes. Clinical validation in 249 retrospective and 243 prospective patient samples demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity, minimal cross‐reactivity, and robust batch‐to‐batch ...
