Peptide Sequencing With Single Acid Resolution Using a Sub‐Nanometer Diameter Pore
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.To sequence a single molecule of Aβ1−42–sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the aggregate is forced through a sub‐nanopore 0.4 nm in diameter spanning a 4.0 nm thick membrane. The figure is a visual molecular dynamics (VMD) snapshot depicting the translocation of Aβ1−42–SDS through the pore; only the peptide, the SDS, the Na+ (yellow/green) and Cl− (cyan ...

A Termite‐Inspired Alternative to Cement
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A termite‐inspired composite of clay, cellulose, and lignin forms a dense fibrous network with concrete‐like strength (32 MPa) and superior elasticity, processed at ambient temperature. Abstract Clay combined with organic materials is used by termites as a strong and durable construction material for their mounds with minimal environmental impact. Here,

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study explores a cost‐effective alternative by incorporating oxophilic dopants into non‐precious metal hosts to enhance water dissociation and catalyst stability. Computational screening identified Ni─V, Ni─Mo, and Co─V as top candidates. Subsequent experiments confirmed Ni20V exhibits superior HER activity, achieving 76 mV lower overpotential ...

Causes and consequences of flat-slab subduction in southern Peru
, 2017 Flat or near-horizontal subduction of oceanic lithosphere has been an important tectonic process both currently and in the geologic past. Subduction of the aseismic Nazca Ridge beneath South America has been associated with the onset of flat subduction ...

Interfacial Control of Degradation Pathways in 2D Heterostructures
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The stability of two‐dimensional (2D) heterostructures is governed not only by their intrinsic chemistry but also by interfacial effects. This study reveals how metallic versus insulating substrates impact the oxidation of air‐sensitive 2H‐MoTe2. Metallic layers act as charge reservoirs, mitigating degradation, while insulating ones accelerate it ...

Emergent Magnetic Structures at the 2D Limit of the Altermagnet MnTe
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Renewed interest in MnTe has emerged due to its intriguing altermagnetism, a newly identified form of magnetism distinct from conventional ferro‐, antiferro‐, or paramagnetism. By combining magnetic X‐ray absorption spectroscopy, scanning tunnelling microscopy, and first‐principles theory, this study reveals that thinning MnTe to the 2D limit ...

Compositional mantle layering revealed by slab stagnation at ~1000-km depth
Science Advances, 2015 The stagnation of ~1000-km deep slabs indicates that dense basalt may be more abundant in the lower mantle than in the upper mantle. Improved constraints on lower-mantle composition are fundamental to understand the accretion, differentiation, and ...
