Strong Coupling in Bulk Nanoplasmonic Nanoplatelet Perovskite Scintillators

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A bulk scintillating nanocomposite is engineered from CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets and Ag nanocubes to support exciton–plasmon strong coupling under X‐ray excitation. The resulting hybrid polaritonic states appear directly in radioluminescence, opening a route toward polariton‐enabled scintillator design beyond conventional Purcell enhancement.

CPP–PEG‐Guided Surface Engineering of Mitochondria Enables Efficient Cellular Uptake and Respiratory Modulation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
PEG‐guided mitochondrial surface engineering supports structural stabilization and controlled presentation of cell‐penetrating peptides. CPP–PEG‐modified mitochondria exhibit enhanced cellular uptake and uptake‐associated respiratory modulation, providing a proof‐of‐concept framework for modular organelle engineering and future bioenergetic modulation ...

Short sea shipping: a statistical analysis of influencing factors on SSS in European countries

Journal of Shipping and Trade, 2018
Short sea shipping (SSS) is the maritime transport of goods over relatively short distances, as opposed to the intercontinental cross-ocean deep sea shipping. The goal of the current paper is to identify SSS growth potential and the univariate regression

A Single‐Solvent Acetone Strategy for Surface Enhancement and Robust Bonding in PMMA Microfluidic Devices

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A single‐solvent acetone strategy simultaneously restores laser‐ablated PMMA surfaces and enables high‐strength bonding for microfluidic device fabrication. The process produces smooth, optically clear channels, achieves bonding strengths up to 27.3 MPa, and forms leak‐free devices within 25 min, providing a rapid and accessible route to robust PMMA ...

Geopolitical conflicts and the restructuring of maritime transport networks: the causal effect of the Red Sea crisis on port throughput

Frontiers in Marine Science
The Red Sea crisis has severely impacted global shipping networks, yet its causal effects on port operations remain inadequately quantified. This study examines 16 major container ports along the Red Sea-Mediterranean route, employing the difference-in ...

Microfabrication of Soft Millirobots Propelled by Low Voltage Electrohydraulic Actuators

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Manual layer‐by‐layer assembly is replaced by wafer‐level MEMS batch fabrication for compliant polymer‐based electrohydraulic actuators. The microfabricated devices integrate sacrificially defined microcavities, Parylene‐C‐sealed inlets, and multilayer polymer–metal films.

Sea Tithes and the Maritime Commercial Transport in the Cuatro Villas de la Costa de la Mar in the Sixteenth Century

Studia Historica: Historia Moderna, 2018
From information provided by documents relative to the sea tithes and wool exports, we try to define the manner in which the commercial channels between Castile and foreign kingdoms were set up during the sixteenth century in the ports of the Cuatro ...

Microfluidic Droplet Plate Preserving Single Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Cardiomyocytes Morphology and Function

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce a novel method combining microfluidics, optogenetics, and human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology to encapsulate single iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC‐CMs) in an optimal environment for functional characterization. This method enables direct genotype‐phenotype correlation for genetic studies and high‐throughput screening ...

An approach to assessing tsunami risk to the global port network under rising sea levels

npj Natural Hazards
Seaports are vulnerable to extreme sea level events. Beyond physical damage, any port inoperability affects trade flows in and out of the affected port and disrupts shipping routes connected to it, which then propagates throughout the port network. Here,
