This perspective explores how intrinsic confinement effects in metavalent chalcogenide and pnictogen thin films alter optical and vibrational properties. By comparing thickness‐dependent effects across prototypical systems, this work highlights the role of unconventional bonding in shaping coherent phonon dynamics and dielectric functions, offering new

VO2 Nanocomposite Thin Films Integrated on Glass Substrates for Tunable Properties
This work explores tuning the metal‐to‐insulator transition and optical properties through a novel multifaceted approach using both defect engineering and energy band restructuring. VO2‐Au nanocomposite and VO2 thin films are grown on glass with ZnO buffers using pulsed laser deposition.

Gas‐ and Liquid‐Phase Catalysts for Solar‐Driven Catalytic Ammonia Decomposition
Amid the drive toward carbon‐neutral hydrogen, this review analyzes photocatalytic ammonia decomposition in gas‐ and liquid‐phase systems. It examines catalyst families—TiO2, ZnO, Ru, single‐atom, and antenna–reactor designs. This study summarizes advances in bandgap tuning, active‐site and cocatalyst engineering, photothermal coupling, and machine ...

A microwave‐assisted approach yields Zr‐MOF/Ag4P2O7 heterostructures with superior solar responsiveness and efficient charge‐carrier separation. The hybrid photocatalyst rapidly degrades dyes and fluoroquinolone antibiotics into less toxic species under visible‐light. Comprehensive optical, mechanistic, and phytotoxicity analyses reveal its robustness,
