Ionothermal Synthesis of Cu(Sb2Se3)[AlCl4] and Cu5(Bi2Se3)6[AlCl4]5 : Monolayers of Sb2Se3 and Bi2Se3 Stabilized by Cu[AlCl4]

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, Volume 652, Issue 12, 3 August 2026.
Ionothermal synthesis in Lewis‐acidic ionic liquids (ILs) yields two new low‐dimensional pnictogen–selenide networks cocrystallized with Cu[AlCl4]. Both are narrow‐gap semiconductors that exhibit strong absorption throughout the visible range. Topochemical AlCl3 extraction triggers partial delamination, pointing to a viable route toward 2D derivatives.

Polymorph‐Specific Electronic Transduction in WO3 during Molecular Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 43, 3 August 2026.
Metal‐oxide polymorphs with similar surface chemistry can nevertheless exhibit distinct sensing properties. In γ‐ and ε‐WO3, analyte adsorption appears comparable; yet, only ε‐WO3 induces a pronounced lattice electronic perturbation that accommodates charge in sub‐conduction band minimum states.

Application of Neural Networks for Advanced Ir Spectroscopy Characterization of Ceria Catalysts Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, Volume 2, Issue 4, August 2026.
A novel convolutional neural network architecture enables rapid, unsupervised analysis of IR spectroscopic data from DRIFTS and IRRAS. By combining synthetic data generation with parallel convolutional layers and advanced regularization, the model accurately resolves spectral features of adsorbed CO, offering real‐time insights into ceria surface ...

An elusive Neotropical giant, Hondurantemna chespiritoi gen. n. & sp. n. (Antemninae, Mantidae): a new lineage of mantises exhibiting an ontogenetic change in cryptic strategy

open access: yesZooKeys, 2017
We present the description of a new genus and new species of praying mantis, Hondurantemna chespiritoi gen. n. & sp. n. This species of cryptic mantis, collected in National parks in Mexico and Honduras, remained unknown despite its considerable ...

Covalently Immobilized Lignin–Xanthene Conjugates for Persistent Surface Photochemistry and Self‐Sterilizing Interfaces Under Ambient Visible Light

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Bio‐derived lignin–Eosin Y macromolecular networks are developed as visible‐light‐responsive self‐sterilizing coatings that generate reactive oxygen species without leaching. The spray‐coated photopolymerized surfaces exhibit durable antibacterial and antiviral activity under ambient light for extended periods, demonstrating a scalable and sustainable ...

Boosting Polyethylene to Aromatics Upcycling via Microwave Catalysis Over Desilicated HZSM‐5

open access: yesAdvanced Chemical Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 1, July 2026.
Microwave (MW) catalysis over optimally desilicated HZSM‐5 enables efficient polyethylene (PE) upcycling at 300°C. Controlled desilication creates hierarchical porosity, tunes acid‐site distribution, and strengthens MW–catalyst coupling, promoting rapid conversion of cracked intermediates to BTX.
