Hydrogen‐Bonding‐Directed Assembly of COF/Nanocluster Hybrids With Synergistic Roles for Efficient Solar Hydrogen Production

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hydrogen‐bonding‐directed assembly enables molecular‐level integration of a covalent organic framework and NiZnCo nanoclusters. The engineered interface couples directional charge transfer, multimetal synergy, and photothermal‐assisted catalysis, providing a versatile strategy for efficient noble‐metal‐free solar hydrogen production.

Terahertz‐Nanoscale Visualization of the Microscopic Spin‐Charge Architecture of Colossal Magnetoresistive Switching

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employs cryogenic magneto‐terahertz nanoscopy to reveal the real‐space electrodynamics of the colossal magnetoresistance transition. By capturing the terahertz electrodynamic evolution of field‐driven spin switching, the work unveils the dissipative dynamics of emergent metallic states, providing a high‐frequency view of coupled spin‐charge ...

Nanoparticle‐Mediated Bubble Suppression During Droplet Solidification for Mechanical Reinforcement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoparticles mediate droplet solidification by raising nucleation temperature, refining dendrites, and slowing freezing‐front advance, thereby suppressing trapped air bubbles in droplet‐based 3D printing. This strategy reduces bubble volume fraction by ∼35% and increases compressive strength by up to 39%, offering a low‐cost route to stronger printed ...

A Covalent Organic Framework With Staggered Topology for Mimetic Transmembrane Transport of Hydrated Ions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by biological ion channels, an AB‐staggered β‐ketoenamine‐linked COF enables rapid hydrated‐ion transport through a biomimetic dehydration‐compensation mechanism, where carbonyl‐rich convergent channels partially offset ion dehydration energy. As aqueous Zn battery separators, the COF membranes suppress parasitic reactions and dendrite growth,

Revealing the Nanoscale Morphology Changes of Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell Catalyst Layers due to Conditioning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We apply ex situ and in situ scanning transmission X‐ray microscopy to reveal the structural degradation of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell catalyst layers due to conditioning and thermal heating of the catalyst coated membrane. We observe a redistribution of the ionomer and carbon‐black in the catalyst layer, as well as nanoscale membrane ...
