Interfacial Salt Redistribution Enables Rapid Atmospheric Water Harvesting in a Biomimetic Multi‐Layer Hygroscopic Membrane

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic multi‐layer hygroscopic membrane redistributes salt toward an air‐accessible nanofiber interface, enabling rapid interfacial deliquescence while a brush‐like hydrogel promotes efficient liquid transport and storage. By decoupling vapor capture from bulk water storage, the membrane achieves fast sorption kinetics and enables rapid‐cycling ...

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial coatings for high touch surfaces promise infection control but are too often validated only in the lab. This review shows that active‐agent release governs both human toxicity and environmental impact and argues that durability and real‐world performance must be primary design criteria, placing a safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework ...

Constructing and Validating New County‐Level Cultural Capital Indices for Applied Policy Analysis: Evidence From SNAP Take‐Up

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cultural capital influences a wide range of social and economic outcomes, yet quantitative measures suitable for policy analysis remain limited. We develop county‐level cultural capital indices for the US based on Bourdieu's framework of objectified, embodied, and institutionalized cultural capital.
