With extensive first‐principles calculations, we investigated the geometric structure, phase transition, and electronic properties of orthorhombic, monoclinic, and tetragonal K 1 −x Na x NbO 3 ( KNN ) as functions of the Na content. We found that KNN undergoes an orthorhombic‐to‐monoclinic‐to‐orthorhombic phase transi…

Thrombosis is a hallmark of several chronic diseases leading to potentially fatal heart attacks and strokes. Frontline interventions include intravenous delivery of potent, enzymatic fibrinolytics that possess a high risk for inducing systemic bleeding. As a conceptual countermeasure, we have developed a water-soluble…
