A New Metal‐Ester Bonding Motif for the Synthesis of Hybrid Molecular Catalysts on Metal Oxide Supports Leads to Tunable Reactivity

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This work reports a new metal–ester bonding strategy for anchoring molecular catalysts to metal oxide supports, achieving exceptionally high surface loadings. Catalyst reactivity is predictably tuned by the support's properties, enabling control over electronic behavior and reaction pathways, thus opening new possibilities for designing highly ...

Catalyst Hide‐and‐Seek Beneath Porous Support Surfaces: Pinpointing Active Site Distribution Through Resonance Energy Transfer

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Like a shark playing hide‐and‐seek in a coral reef, energy transfer (ET) finds hidden “fish” catalysts in the porous support “reef.” ET allows catalytic species to be precisely mapped, revealing whether they reside near the surface, deep in the pores, or are uniformly distributed. This approach ensures controlled catalyst distribution, highlighting how

Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.
