Theoretically, a wide variety of DESs can be formed through different combinations of components and their interactions. Among these, ChCl is most widely used in DES formulations. What accounts for the prominence of ChCl in DES formation? This study aims to analyze and address this question. A comparison with DESs bas…
Abstract Solar-powered electrochromic devices (SP-ECDs) are promising for zero-energy smart optical systems, holding potential applications in energy-saving windows, augmented reality displays, and adaptive camouflage. State-of-the-art SP-ECDs typically rely on the physical stacking of solar cells and electrochromic c…
Abstract A rapid, single‐step microwave‐assisted hydrothermal method was developed for synthesizing a Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene–reduced graphene oxide–gold nanoparticle (MXene/rGO/AuNP) ternary nanocomposite, completed in 20 min at 120°C. This method eliminates the need for multistep processing while facilitating the in situ…
A distributor, producing uniform flow, has been designed, manufactured, and installed onto the Actively Pumped Open-surface Lithium LOop (APOLLO) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). The anisotropic features of the distributor were determined using a two-step approach utilizing topology optimizati…
Abstract The broken inversion symmetry and strong spin-orbit coupling of transition metal dichalcogenides and the resulting spin-valley locking are the foundation for potential two-dimensional spin devices and valleytronics. However, ultrafast valley polarization is difficult to characterize due to the need to image b…
Abstract Protonic ceramic electrochemical cells (PCECs) are emerging as promising technologies for efficient energy conversion and hydrogen production because they operate at intermediate temperatures with improved efficiency and durability compared with conventional solid oxide electrochemical cells. However, the lon…
ABSTRACT Bridging toxic metal remediation with high‐value materials manufacturing remains a major challenge for sustainable materials science. Here, we report a remediation‐driven upcycling strategy that directly converts aqueous Pb pollutants into an active material for X‐ray detection using a nitrogen‐doped MXene/Cu…
In recent years, natural fiber reinforced composites have gained considerable attention of industries and researchers due to their sustainability, lightweight and cost-effectiveness. This study explores the mechanical and thermal performance of cotton/bamboo/glass (C/B/G) fiber-reinforced hybrid epoxy composites fabri…
Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) phase-change materials combining reversible polarization switching with robust structural polymorphism are rare but crucial for next-generation memory and quantum devices. Here, using first-principles calculations, we identify three aluminum-based chalcohalides (AlSBr, AlSI, and AlSeI) as…
Abstract Near-infrared (NIR) electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) offers superior tissue penetration and reduced background for bioimaging, yet stable, efficient NIR luminophores remain rare. This study investigates the photophysical dynamics and ECL mechanisms of two donor–acceptor–donor platinum–acetylide oligom…
ABSTRACT Conjugated porous polymers (CPPs) have emerged as promising organo‐based semiconducting materials for solar‐to‐chemical energy conversion due to their customizable structures and functionalities. Exploring diverse synthetic routes provides a strong driving force to promote the development of this intriguing c…
The corrosion behavior of N80 steel in a simulated coalbed–methane environment was investigated in a high-temperature, high-pressure autoclave. Uniform corrosion and maximum pit depth were quantified by weight-loss measurements and ultra-depth-of-field three-dimensional microscopy, respectively, while SEM, EDS, and XR…
This study aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of the Zein/poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) blend ratio on the formation, structure, and performance of electrospun nanofiber membranes and to further assess the feasibility of incorporating bromothymol blue (BTB) into the optimized matrix as a pH-responsive fun…
The textile and apparel industry is one of the pollution intensive and resource consuming industries and responsible for putting a huge amount of negative environmental impact. For making this sector much more environmentally friendly, proper dataset and analysis is required. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) can provide a…
Streptococcus cristatus (S. cristatus) belongs to the viridans group of streptococci and is a commensal of the human upper respiratory tract. With the non-phosphorylating glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, GapN, and the oxidative part of the pentose phosphate pathway (oxPPP), S. cristatus can use two different…
Instrument control remains a practical bottleneck in laboratory automation and self-driving laboratories. Although large language models (LLMs) have shown strong potential in document understanding, code generation, and scientific workflow automation, most existing systems assume that ready-to-use instrument interface…
ABSTRACT Two‐dimensional tellurium (2D Te) is promising for electronic and optoelectronic applications. However, epitaxial growth of highly oriented and structurally continuous 2D Te remains challenging due to its intrinsic growth anisotropy. Here, we address this limitation by combining violet phosphorus (VP) as an e…
Abstract Thermoelectric materials, which enable the direct conversion of waste heat into electricity, offer a sustainable pathway to address energy scarcity and environmental concerns.

The multiwalled carbon nanotube, MWCNT-7, is carcinogenic to rat lungs when inhaled over the course of 2 years, but does not induce pleural mesothelioma. In contrast, intratracheal instillation of MWCNT-7 causes both lung tumors and pleural mesotheliomas. To explore the possibility of the use of the intratracheal inst…
