Toward Sustainable Separation and Recovery of Critical Metals From Discarded Industrial Perovskite Solar Modules

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An architecture‐guided recycling process enables selective metal recovery from end‐of‐life perovskite solar modules by exploiting interfacial accessibility and calcination‐induced phase transformation. The process achieves >99.8% Pb removal, >99.7% In recovery, and >96.1% Cu recovery, while selectively retaining Sn in leaching residue.

Terahertz Channel Modeling, Estimation and Localization in RIS‐Assisted Systems

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces have become a recent intensive research focus. Based on practical applications, channel strategies for RIS‐assisted terahertz wireless communication systems are categorized into three different types: channel modeling, channel estimation, and channel localization.

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

Chinese Trade Competition and Rural Mexican Migration

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT China's accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001 reshaped global trade, reducing U.S. demand for Mexican manufactured goods and weakening Mexico's manufacturing employment. This study estimates how this trade‐induced decline affected migration and employment decisions among rural Mexicans.
