Halogen‐Bond Coupled Halogenated‐π‐Conjugation Enables Giant Birefringence in Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The perfect crystal packing achieved via the halogen‐bond (XB) coupled halogenated‐π‐conjugation strategy effectively induces an ultrahigh birefringence (Δn = 0.97), which exhibits promising potential in polarization control and phase modulation.

Tri‐Layer Solid‐State Nanopore Arrays with Crosstalk Suppression for High‐Throughput, Femtomolar‐Level Biosensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The critical pore spacing—approximately twenty times the pore radius—required to minimize electric field coupling is determined via finite element analysis. A multi‐layered Al2O3/Au/Si3N4 nanopore structure fabricated by helium ion beam lithography is proposed, enabling quantitative analysis of the target analyte while mitigating inter‐pore crosstalk ...

Thermoelectric Properties of a Family of Benzodifuranone‐Based Conjugated Copolymers in Oriented Thin Films Doped Sequentially With NDMBI‐H

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Combining high polymer orientation of n‐type copolymers by temperature rubbing and sequential doping with N‐DMBI results in a strong improvement of electrical conductivity and thermoelectric power factors reaching up to 9.8 ± 1.6 S cm−1 and 8 ± 3 µW m−1.K2, respectively.

Frozen light in periodic metamaterials [PDF]

, 2006
Wave propagation in spatially periodic media, such as photonic crystals, can be qualitatively different from any uniform substance. The differences are particularly pronounced when the electromagnetic wavelength is comparable to the primitive translation

Beyond Imperfect Match: Silicon/Graphite Hybrid Anodes for High‐Energy–Density Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Silicon/graphite (Si/Gr) hybrid anodes are limited by Si's large volume change and mismatch with Gr. This review offers mechanistic insights into imperfectly matched Si/Gr hybrid anodes, elucidating heterogeneous lithiation behavior and interfacial failure pathways, and thereby informing the design of durable, high‐energy–density lithium‐ion batteries.

3D investigation and modeling of the geometric effects on porosity in packed beds

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In porous beds, physical boundaries restrict particle arrangement, leading to inhomogeneous porosity. This paper reports on the porosity profiles that are the result of geometric effects on monodisperse packed beds in cylindrical and cubic arrangements. Special focus is given to the influence of edges and corners in cubic geometries.

Structure and Spectroscopic Characterisation of Phenanthroline‐Based Iodobismuthate(III) Complexes Utilised for Raw Acoustic Signal Classification

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Memristors based on trimethylsulfonium (phenanthroline)tetraiodobismuthate have been utilised as a nonlinear node in a delayed feedback reservoir. This system allowed an efficient classification of acoustic signals, namely differentiation of vocalisation of the brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula).

Impact of Biomimetic Pinna Shape Variation on Clutter Echoes: A Machine Learning Approach

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Bats with dynamic ear structures navigate dense, echo‐rich environments, yet the echoes they receive are highly random. This study shows that machine learning can reliably detect structural signatures in these seemingly chaotic biosonar signals. The results open new directions for biologically inspired sensing, where time‐varying receiver shapes ...

Between Order and Confusion: Clearing up Structural Misconceptions in Carbon Materials Nomenclature

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Despite the versatile use of carbon materials, inconsistent terminology and inadequate characterization – especially regarding graphene structures based on sp2‐hybridized carbon atoms – often cause confusion. This perspective clarifies terms like graphite, graphitic carbon, non‐graphitic carbon, and amorphous carbon by aligning IUPAC definitions with X‐

Discovery and Initial Investigation of a New Low Surface Brightness Planetary Nebula Candidate at High Galactic Latitude

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Planetary nebulae represent a late evolutionary phase of low‐ to intermediate‐mass stars. In this article, we present the serendipitous discovery of a previously unknown, faint potential Galactic planetary nebula (PN) in the constellation Camelopardalis, identified during a survey‐inspection, aiming at the detection of dwarf companions of the ...
