Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone)‐based hybrid membrane is fabricated with fluorine‐doped carbon dot (FCD) and functionalized metal organic framework (MIL−101−NH2). The novel design reduces unwanted ion crossover while maintaining a sufficient proton transport pathway.

Dual‐Mode Magnetic Elastomer for On‐Demand Motion and Degradation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A dual‐mode magnetic elastomer is introduced, enabling DC field‐driven programmable actuation and AC field‐driven magnetothermal degradation. GHz‐range magnetic fields generate ultrafast heating of magnetic nanoparticles that activates cleavage of the silicone elastomer matrix.

"On the Evolution of a Multi-regional System" [PDF]
We study the effects of decrease in trade costs on the spatial distribution of industry in multi-regional economy, when a rise in the regional population of workers generates higher urban costs. We show that high and low trade costs imply the all regions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.When hydrated zinc ions are deposited onto Cu substrates at practical current densities, the modified Cu enables simultaneously compact zinc growth and suppressed hydrogen evolution. This regulatory effect originates from the superior adsorption of the modified Cu interface, which enhances zincophilicity and the hydrogen desorption barrier, thereby ...

Costs and benefits of trade liberalization [PDF]
Conventional economic theory advocates trade liberalization, and ultimately free trade because its benefits are said to outweigh its costs. This paper states the arguments for and against the liberalization of trade and then analyzes the case of Pakistan'
