Polarization‐Dependent 3D Holography Generated by Inverse Design Nanoprinting Metasurface

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel polarization‐dependent 3D holography is proposed by introducing polarization as an additional freedom, enabling enhanced depth selectivity and greater control over holographic reconstruction. The efforts perfectly combine the polarization and 3D holography display into ADAM gradient descent algorithm, the application of nanoprinting further ...

FOCUS: A Four‐In‐One Consolidated Unison Strain Sensor with Enhanced Sensitivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a folding transformation that stacks four printed liquid metal sensors into a unified 3D orthogonal construct, FOCUS harnesses complementary bidirectional resistance responses within a Wheatstone bridge. This architecture yields fivefold sensitivity enhancement and 25 µm resolution, overcoming LM sensors’ micro‐strain limitations and enabling ...

Selective Lithium Recovery via Photothermal Evaporation and Hydration‐Controlled Adsorption

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bilayer Mo‐LDH@Sponge composite is developed to couple interfacial photothermal evaporation with hydration‐controlled lithium adsorption. Solar‐induced heating dynamically regulates Li+ hydration and transport, enabling selective lithium capture from saline water. This work provides mechanistic insight into photothermal–adsorption coupling for energy‐

Student evaluations of teaching are an inadequate assessment tool for evaluating faculty performance

Cogent Education, 2017
Literature is examined to support the contention that student evaluations of teaching (SET) should not be used for summative evaluation of university faculty. Recommendations for alternatives to SET are provided.

Enhanced Bandgap Flexibility in Perovskite‐Silicon Tandem Solar Cells via Three‐Terminal Architecture

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Three‐terminal (3T) perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells overcome the current‐matching constraints of 2T designs. Using an IBC POLO silicon bottom cell, we demonstrate a 30.1% PCE, with performance largely decoupled from perovskite bandgap and enhanced resilience under realistic, time‐dependent solar spectra.
