This study constructs a low-cost, visible-light-driven Bi₂O₃-Cu₂O dual-photoelectrode photocatalytic fuel cell that achieves efficient methylene blue degradation (96.46%) and power generation by replacing expensive noble metal cathodes with a Cu₂O photocathode and optimizing heterojunction carrier separation.
This study analyzes the optical, thermal, and structural properties of UV-C irradiated polyvinylidene chloride films exposed to iodine vapor, revealing that iodine doping significantly reduces the HOMO-LUMO energy gap and forms charge transfer complexes and polyiodides, although prolonged UV exposure hinders these formations through interactions with hydroxyl groups.
This paper challenges the "Scaling Hypothesis" in materials informatics by demonstrating that machine learning models fail to generalize for bandgap predictions because the electronic bandgap manifold is topologically disjoint due to discrete orbital quantization, necessitating a shift from simple coordinate-based regression to methods that directly integrate quantum mechanical Hamiltonians.
This study demonstrates that unripe plantain peel-derived activated carbon, optimized via a full 2³ factorial design, achieves 98.23% removal of cyclodiene pesticides from wastewater under specific conditions of pH 3.0, 5 g/100mL dosage, and 30°C temperature.
This study develops a machine learning-enhanced, paper-based colorimetric sensor utilizing carbon dot-coupled single-atom iron nanozymes and a competitive N-acetylcysteine/acrolein reaction to enable rapid, high-precision on-site detection of the carcinogen acrolein in baked foods.
This study demonstrates that the configuration of atmospheric-pressure plasma reactors—specifically arc-jet, gliding arc, and multi-hole DBD—significantly influences the morphology, surface roughness, oxidation state, and crystallinity of SnO coatings deposited via chemical vapour deposition, with the gliding arc reactor yielding the most compact, smooth, and highly oxidized films.
This study reports the synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 1,2,3-triazole-linked isatin and 5-fluoroisatin hybrids via click chemistry, identifying compound 4g as a potent anticancer agent and compound 4a as an effective antibacterial candidate, with their mechanisms and drug-likeness further validated through molecular docking, dynamics, and ADMET studies.
This study demonstrates the creation of atomically precise gold nanoclusters functionalized with a novel chiral aromatic-amide ligand that enables programmable electronic transport, resulting in a multifunctional nano-system capable of efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution and targeted triple-negative breast cancer therapy via ROS-induced mitochondrial dysfunction while maintaining high biocompatibility.
This study introduces a synergistic dual-plasticizer strategy incorporating propylene carbonate and glycerol into a citric acid-crosslinked carboxymethyl cellulose gel polymer electrolyte, which simultaneously enhances ionic conductivity and Zn²⁺ transference number to achieve stable zinc deposition and durable performance in aqueous zinc-ion batteries.
Newly synthesized pH-sensitive dicephalic cationic surfactants, particularly those with longer alkyl chains, effectively modify the surface properties of polystyrene and stainless steel while demonstrating potent antimicrobial, anti-adhesive, and biofilm-eradicating activities against *S. epidermidis* and *C. albicans*, though they showed no efficacy against *P. aeruginosa*.
