CO2 lasers in the management of potentially malignant and malignant oral disorders [PDF]

, 2012
The CO2 laser was invented in 1963 by Kumar Patel. Since the early 1970s, CO2 laser has proved to be an effective method of treatment for patients with several types of oral lesions, including early squamous cell carcinoma.

Graft Copolymer‐Stabilized Liquid Metal Nanoparticles for Lithium‐Ion Battery Self‐Healing Anodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a self‐healing liquid metal anode for lithium‐ion batteries, where graft copolymer‐stabilized eutectic gallium indium (EGaIn) nanoparticles enhance stability and rate performance. The fluorinated grafted copolymer forms ionic channels, preventing EGaIn aggregation and facilitating lithium‐ion migration.

10 Years Development of Potassium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Significant progress is made in PIBs over the past decade, but the improvements based on half‐cell testing, low mass loading, and low energy density are insufficient for practical applications. This review summarizes the challenges and strategies for PIBs, highlights the importance of further research focusing on full cells, and provides an analysis of

Decoding Chemo‐Mechanical Failure Mechanisms of Solid‐State Lithium Metal Battery Under Low Stack Pressure via Optical Fiber Sensors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
By FBG sensing the Li/electrolyte interfacial stress in solid‐state battery, the Li metal anode failure reasons as dendrite‐induced uneven stress distribution at electrode/electrolyte interface are disclosed. A Li–Sn composite anode is demonstrated effective in stabilizing the interface mechanics and the solid‐state full cell performance at low stack ...

Protein‐Like Polymers Targeting Keap1/Nrf2 as Therapeutics for Myocardial Infarction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We describe a Keap1 targeting protein‐like polymer (PLP) which activates Nrf2, an important cytoprotective transcription factor for relieving myocardial infarction‐induced oxidative stress. This PLP increases cell survival in vitro in multiple relevant cardiac cell types and elicits pro‐reparative responses, improving cardiac function in a preclinical ...
