Predicting Performance of Hall Effect Ion Source Using Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
This study introduces HallNN, a machine learning tool for predicting Hall effect ion source performance using a neural network ensemble trained on data generated from numerical simulations. HallNN provides faster and more accurate predictions than numerical methods and traditional scaling laws, making it valuable for designing and optimizing Hall ...

Operando Identification of the Active Phase in Sr‐Promoted Lanthanum Cobaltite Perovskite‐Derived Catalysts for Ammonia Decomposition

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Ammonia decomposition catalyzed by base metals: Exsolution of cobalt from perovskites prepared by spray‐flame synthesis (SFS) yields highly active, SrO‐promoted Co/La2O3 catalysts with low cobalt content. Operando studies provide insight into the function of the promoter. Dynamic surface reconstruction under operating conditions increases the interface

Electron Bridge Enhanced Charge Polarization Enables Efficient and Ultra‐Long Stable Urea Electrosynthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An electron bridge strategy is developed to regulate charge polarization in Pd1 and Ni1 dual single‐atom sites, promoting CO2 reduction, nitrate reduction, and C–N coupling simultaneously. The resulting catalyst achieves efficient urea electrosynthesis with high activity and record durability over 1700 h.

HeaTrace: A Parametric Design‐to‐Fabrication Workflow for Thermally Programmable Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A programmable thermal actuation workflow enables soft robots to be designed and fabricated with embedded heaters that drive multiple responses. By combining performance‐driven heater design with multimaterial fabrication, the system supports thermally triggered shape change, stiffness tuning, and thermochromic visual response, as demonstrated through ...

Site Density Governs Switching Reactivity Regimes During Aerobic C─H Oxidation in Mn Single‐Atom Photocatalysts

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Increasing the density of isolated manganese (Mn) atoms in carbon nitride (CNx) photocatalysts does not continuously improve performance. Instead, beyond a critical loading, the polymer support reorganizes, altering charge‐carrier dynamics and oxygen activation while preserving atomic dispersion.

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.
