Cavity Microelectrode Arrays for Electrical Recordings From Neurons

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are used to study electrophysiological activity. However, their signals are small with high noise. By adding a 100‐nanometer‐high cavity above the electrode, which reduces impedance without affecting resolution, we improve signal quality.

The development of large suction traps for airborne insects

, 1955
Small suction traps for estimating the density of airborne insects, and its fluctuations, in relatively sheltered situations, e. g. in crops, have already been designed and used. Larger, more powerful traps have now been developed for use in more exposed

Enhancing Geotechnical Engineering Education Through Case-Based Innovation: A Predictive Modeling Framework for Cemented Sand in Strength Theory Teaching

Applied Sciences
The shear strength–suction (here suction induced from unsaturation) relationship is inherently challenging, yet this difficulty is compounded for cemented crushable sands, whose behavior fundamentally diverges from classical clay-centric theories.

FastCat: Autonomous Discovery of Multielement Layered Double Hydroxide Alloy Catalysts for Alkaline Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐guided self‐driving laboratory screened over 500 nickel‐based layered double‐hydroxide catalysts for alkaline oxygen evolution. Out of the eight metals, the robot uncovered a quaternary Ni–Fe–Cr–Co catalysts requiring only 231 mV overpotential to reach 20 mA cm−2.
