APTES‐Mediated Ti‐Squarate MOF/n‐GaN Nanowire Photoanodes for Efficient Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The APTES linker establishes a permanent interfacial dipole, reducing the work function of n‐GaN from 3.55 to 3.29 eV. This strengthens the built‐in electric field, significantly accelerating hole extraction to drive the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Ultimately, this tailored charge‐separation architecture achieves a remarkable 4.78‐fold enhancement

Underwater Image Enhancement Based on Transformer, Attention, and Multi-Color-Space Inputs

IEEE Access
Underwater images suffer from color distortion, low contrast and blurring caused by the attenuation, refraction, and scattering of light. For many maritime operations, underwater image enhancement is essential.

Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Hybrid Biofabrication of a Hierarchically Organized Periosteum‐Inspired In Vitro Platform

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid biofabrication strategy integrates melt electrowriting with extrusion‐based 3D bioprinting to create a hierarchically organized periosteum‐inspired in vitro platform. Spatially defined osteogenic, fibrous, and endothelial cell‐containing compartments support long‐term culture, osteogenic maturation, and CD31+ endothelial cell organization ...

A 3D‐Printed Model of Human Lactation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Breastfeeding supports infant and maternal health, yet in vitro models that mimic human lactation remain scarce. Here, light‐based 3D printing creates high‐resolution, alveoli‐inspired microwells that guide breast cells into polarized microtissues. The printed scaffolds embed slow‐release prolactin microcrystals to deliver hormonal cues, enabling human

Three-Step Color Correction and Multi-scale Contrast Enhancement for Underwater Images [PDF]

Jisuanji kexue yu tansuo
Due to the absorption and scattering effects of underwater media on light, underwater imaging often suffers from color distortion, contrast degradation, and blurred details. An improved underwater image color correction method is proposed, which includes
