Architected Spatially Deterministic Multiscale Phase Segregation in Block Copolymer Composites for Augmented Radiative Cooling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multiscale phase segregation in block copolymers enables spatially deterministic structuring from molecular to macroscopic scales, decoupling solar scattering and infrared emission for augmented radiative cooling. ABSTRACT Passive radiative cooling, which reflects solar irradiation while emitting heat through the atmospheric window, provides a ...

Electronic‐State Programming of Ultrasmall CeO2 Switches H2O2 Activation From Radical to Bio‐Inspired Nonradical 1O2 Generation for Combating Antibiotic Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A scalable synthesis of carbon‐supported ultrasmall CeO2 nanoparticles with precisely tunable Ce electron density is reported. Electron‐lean Ce sites activate H2O2 exclusively via a nonradical pathway, enabling efficient HOBr and 1O2 production analogous to bromoperoxidase for contaminant and antibiotic resistance removal.

Hybrid Two‐Step Inkjet Printing and Dip‐Coating Enable Scalable 30%‐Efficient Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Adopting a scalable hybrid two‐step deposition process route, textured perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells achieve over 30% power‐conversion efficiency. The process route replaces all non‐scalable spin‐coating steps, including organic precursor deposition, self‐assembled monolayer formation, and passivation layer deposition, with scalable techniques ...

Rural Labor Supply and Economic Opportunities: Commuting, Migration, Tariffs, and Immigration

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Some rural counties remain dependent on agricultural or manufacturing jobs, but an increasing proportion have diversified economics. Rural counties also differ in their abilities to commute to an urban market characterized by higher wages and labor productivity.

Behavioral Coping With Food Price Inflation: Patterns Among U.S. Households

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent food price inflation has placed substantial pressure on household budgets, food security, and mental well‐being. Using Household Pulse Survey data, we combine k‐modes clustering and Double Machine Learning to identify distinct household coping groups and examine differences in how households respond to rising food prices across groups ...
