Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Energy‐Efficient, Sustainable Cascade Glucose Electrooxidation into Glucaric Acid
This study presents a tandem system that efficiently converts glucose into glucaric acid while generating renewable electricity. By decoupling the oxidation process into two cascaded steps, the system achieves an overall 90% Faradaic efficiency and 80% conversion efficiency at ∼0.6 VRHE, significantly reducing energy consumption compared to traditional

Aqueous directional ice templating (DIT) is developed for making NMC811 cathodes containing vertically aligned pore arrays through electrode thickness. The effects of calendering are studied for the DIT electrodes to find optimal calendering and simultaneously achieve high gravimetric and volumetric energy densities and rate capability for lithium ion ...
