Biomimetic Self‐Reconfigurable Soft Gripper for Cross‐Scale, Multi‐Particle, and High‐Load Multifunctional Manipulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A fully soft, self‐reconfigurable gripper inspired by rapeseed flowers is monolithically 3D‐printed and electronics‐free, switching between diagonal and parallel finger arrangements. Establishing a self‐reconfigurable grasping paradigm, the gripper enables diverse manipulation tasks, including rotating bulbs, picking fruits, grasping cross‐scale ...

Bipolar Palladium Membrane Enabling Crossover‐Free Selective Proton Transport

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a crossover‐free bipolar palladium membrane that transports protons selectively via reversible Pd/PdHx absorption–desorption and lattice hydrogen diffusion, overcoming the conductivity–selectivity trade‐off of polymer membranes. It enables water‐fed Li‐mediated ammonia synthesis, achieving 51% Faradaic efficiency and stable 12 h ...

Verification of the Efficiency of Alternative Furrow Irrigation on Water Productivity and Onion Yield at Woleh Irrigation Scheme, Northern Ethiopia

International Journal on Food, Agriculture and Natural Resources
In the semi-arid regions of Ethiopia, water is the most limiting factor for crop production. Meeting crop water demand maximizes productivity from a land unit but does not inherently increase revenue per unit of water.

Efficient Adsorption‐Based Direct Air Capture Via Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Architectures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Architected triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) contactors reshape direct air capture by replacing straight‐channel diffusion limits with convection‐enhanced CO2 transport. Chaotic advection thins boundary layers and exposes fast adsorption sites, enabling 70%–75% more fast sites, 114% higher productivity, and 51.8% lower energy consumption than ...

A Disulfide‐Sticker Strategy for Marine Adhesive Coatings: From Deciphering Self‐Assembly Mechanism to Functional Application in Hair Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A disulfide‐sticker strategy, coupled with Ca2+ coordination, drives the hierarchical self‐assembly of a recombinant scallop adhesive protein into fishnet‐like nanostructures, affording a coating with versatile wet adhesion and intrinsic antioxidant activity. This biocompatible coating markedly promotes hair regeneration by activating follicular niches,

D–A Type Perylene Micelles With Synergistic Charge/Energy Transfer for Dual‐Path ROS Generation and Enhanced Photocatalysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dual‐state activation of singlet and triplet excitons is achieved in perylene‐based nanomicelles via donor engineering. By synergistically pairing charge transfer with energy transfer pathways, while concurrently enabling pollutant pre‐enrichment, this strategy establishes spatial coupling between efficient ROS generation and rapid mineralization ...
