Single-Cell Reprogramming in Mouse Embryo Development through a Critical Transition State

Entropy, 2017
Our previous work on the temporal development of the genome-expression profile in single-cell early mouse embryo indicated that reprogramming occurs via a critical transition state, where the critical-regulation pattern of the zygote state disappears. In

Laser‐Assisted Phase Engineering of 2D MoS2 for Efficient Solution‐Processed Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Here, local laser‐assisted phase transition from solution‐processed phase‐pure 1T′ to 2H MoS2 is shown to critically depend on the irradiation atmosphere. While processing in air leads to damaged insulating regions, inert conditions yield semiconducting 2H domains, enabling direct field‐effect transistor patterning with optimized lateral 1T′‐2H MoS2 ...

Directing Near‐Perfect (001) Orientation in Wafer‐Scale BiOI Thin Films via Halide‐Mediated van der Waals Stacking

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Our work introduces a new framework that fundamentally changes how orientation in bismuth oxyhalide systems is approached. Comprehensive experiments, backed by theoretical models, reveal the pivotal role of halide anions to modify the van der Waals stacking energies required to direct orientation. Our method enables the fabrication of near perfect (001)

Contact Geometry of Mesoscopic Thermodynamics and Dynamics

Entropy, 2014
The time evolution during which macroscopic systems reach thermodynamic equilibrium states proceeds as a continuous sequence of contact structure preserving transformations maximizing the entropy.

Regulating Phase Evolution and Crystallization Dynamics Enables Low Open‐Circuit Voltage Deficit in Wide‐Bandgap Cu2ZnSnS4 Solar Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bilayer composition‐modulated sulfurization (BCMS) regulates Cu redistribution in solution‐processed Cu2ZnSnS4, suppressing Cu2SnS3 and favoring the direct transformation pathway, while transforming the crystallization from surface‐dominated growth to a more synchronized process.

Revisions of the Phenomenological and Statistical Statements of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Entropy
The status of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, even in the 21st century, is not as certain as when Arthur Eddington wrote about it a hundred years ago.

Differential Sedimentation and Cryo‐TEM Mapping Resolve Structural Heterogeneity in Conjugated Polymer Nanowires for Programmable Stretchable Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Density‐driven differential sedimentation fractionates solution‐assembled P3HT nanowires into crystalline and disordered constituents. High‐resolution cryo‐TEM directly visualizes the molecular chain packing within individual nanowires in real space, and recombining the fractions programs the mobility–stretchability trade‐off without chemical ...

A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...
