This study demonstrates unprecedented giant plasticity (up to 93% strain) in the ceramic semiconductor GeSe by utilizing a shear-mediated chair-to-boat conformational switching mechanism, offering a new strategy for developing flexible electronics.
The study introduces a novel lipopeptide conjugate, FMdEG-KTTKS, which self-assembles into spherical micelles and demonstrates superior collagen-stimulating, wound-healing, and anti-inflammatory properties compared to conventional stimulants, even at concentrations below its critical micelle concentration.
This study presents a smartphone-assisted dual-mode (colorimetric and fluorescent) immunosensor utilizing MnO2 nanosheets and TMB for the sensitive and reliable detection of ochratoxin A in red wine through an indirect competitive assay.
This study demonstrates that a choline chloride–lactic acid deep eutectic solvent serves as an effective, environmentally friendly medium for the electropolishing of nickel and cobalt, achieving significant nanoscale surface smoothing and mirror-like finishes under optimized potentiostatic conditions.
This paper presents a novel polymer design that combines rigid helical foldamer domains with flexible oligomeric blocks to suppress globular collapse and enable the a priori programmable self-assembly of macromolecules into diverse, ordered porous nanostructures and crystalline networks with applications in sensing, catalysis, and separations.
This study presents an integrated framework combining experimental synthesis, density functional theory calculations, and classical/hybrid quantum-classical neural networks to accurately predict the bandgap and color of Cr/Sb co-doped TiO₂ ceramic pigments, demonstrating the potential of quantum machine learning for materials design.
This study demonstrates that incorporating a 15% mixture of wastepaper ash and waste ceramic powder as a supplementary cementitious material significantly enhances the mechanical, durability, and microstructural properties of cement mortar, offering a viable and sustainable solution for partial cement replacement.
This study presents a smartphone-assisted colorimetric platform for detecting mercury ions using a Mn-Au hybrid nanozyme whose oxidase-mimicking activity is reversibly controlled by an aptamer that desorbs upon specific Hg²⁺ binding, enabling sensitive and on-site environmental monitoring.
This paper proposes a general phenomenological framework demonstrating that geometric order, quantified by a new surface uniformity parameter, acts as an independent control variable that allows prebiotic systems to maintain useful chiral symmetry breaking despite substantial microscopic disorder, with gradual rather than threshold-like tolerance confirmed through modeling and falsifiable experimental predictions.
This study demonstrates that Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy coupled with machine learning outperforms near-infrared and fluorescence techniques in detecting synthetic acetic acid adulteration in white rice vinegar, while highlighting the critical necessity of tailoring chemometric models to specific vinegar brands due to significant variability in optimal preprocessing and feature selection strategies.
