Atomistic Kinetics of Dislocation‐Mediated Grain Growth in Monolayer MoS2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Atomic‐resolution in‐situ heating microscopy directly visualizes dislocation‐mediated grain boundary migration and grain growth in monolayer MoS2. Mobile grain boundaries migrate through collective motion of Mo 5|7 dislocations, whereas S 5|7 defects remain largely immobile.

Responsive Open Microfluidic Logic for Mechanical Computing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Coupling elasticity with capillarity transforms mechanical compression into binary fluidic states, enabling deterministic logic in open microfluidic circuits. This work demonstrates that computation can emerge from interactions between mechanic and fluidic domains, establishing a general strategy for embedding information processing directly within ...

High‐Current‐Density Acidic CO2 Electroreduction to Formic Acid Enabled by Multiscale Microenvironment Regulation Over Defect‐Rich Sn/SnOx

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Acidic CO2 electroreduction to formic acid is enabled by integrating mixed Sn/SnOx nanoclusters, K+‐regulated interfacial solvation, and Janus wettability. Coordinated control of active sites, interfacial water, and gas‐liquid transport suppresses hydrogen evolution and delivers approximately 85% HCOOH Faradaic efficiency at 400 mA cm−2.

Nonlinear Quantum Effects Drive Grotthuss Proton Conduction in Structured Electrolytes Based on Deep Eutectic Solvents

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that the inverse relationship between viscosity and conductivity in structured electrolytes can be circumvented by leveraging their hydrogen bonding networks for Grotthuss proton transport. Using a mixture of imidazole and levulinic acid, we show that the existence of extended hydrogen‐bonded chains that can rapidly reorient result in ...

Molecular Electrocatalysis Coupled With a Palladium Membrane Reactor Affords Selective Nitrogen Reduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A palladium membrane reactor delivers active hydrogen to homogeneous nickel terpyridine catalysts, which then selectively hydrogenate dinitrogen to ammonia. ABSTRACT Ammonia production is a cornerstone of modern industry and society, yet the conventional Haber–Bosch process accounts for nearly 2% of the global CO2 emissions. A promising and potentially
