The poor electron transport and bulk recombination losses in monoclinic scheelite BiVO₄ (ms-BiVO₄), rooted in the localized nature of the V 3d conduction-band states, remain the principal barriers to high-performance photoelectrochemical (PEC) operation. V-site substitution with transition-metal dopants offers an atom…

With the evolution in textile technology, clothing is expected to be more than just a shield or cover for the body. Integrating conducting yarns into textiles enables garments to act as point-of-care wearables, human–machine interaction, and ambient computing. Even though numerous studies about metallic, polymeric, an…

Background. Vat photopolymerisation (VPP) is increasingly used to fabricate electrically functional structures in which electrical behaviour must coexist with photochemical cure, geometric fidelity, rheological processability and service stability. The literature spans electrostatic-control materials, carbon-based per…

Flow past an asymmetrically confined cylinder of shear-thinning viscoelastic polymer solutions has been experimentally investigated. We show that the flow asymmetry induced by the asymmetric geometry is enhanced at Weissenberg numbers (Wi) above unity; that is, the flow in the nonpreferred pathway decreases significan…
