Open AccessPhotothermal CO2 conversion to ethanol through photothermal heterojunction-nanosheet arrays
Photothermal CO2 conversion to ethanol offers a sustainable solution for achieving net-zero carbon management. However, serious carrier recombination and high C-C coupling energy barrier cause poor performance in...

Open AccessAccessing parity-forbidden d-d transitions for photocatalytic CO2 reduction driven by infrared light
A general approach to promote IR light-driven CO2 reduction within ultrathin Cu-based hydrotalcite-like hydroxy salts is presented. Associated band structures and optical properties of the Cu-based materials are ...

Open AccessMultilayer stabilization for fabricating high-loading single-atom catalysts
Metal single-atom catalysts (M-SACs) have emerged as an attractive concept for promoting heterogeneous reactions, but the synthesis of high-loading M-SACs remains a challenge. Here, we report a multilayer stab...

Open AccessMechanically strong MXene/Kevlar nanofiber composite membranes as high-performance nanofluidic osmotic power generators
Two-dimensional nanofluidic channels are emerging candidates for capturing osmotic energy from salinity gradients. However, present two-dimensional nanofluidic architectures are generally constructed by simple...

Open AccessBell’s Nonlocality Can be Detected by the Violation of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Steering Inequality
Recently quantum nonlocality has been classified into three distinct types: quantum entanglement, Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering, and Bell’s nonlocality. Among which, Bell’s nonlocality is the strongest type...

Open AccessNitrogen concentration driving the hardness of rhenium nitrides
The structures and properties of rhenium nitrides are studied with density function based first principle method. New candidate ground states or high-pressure phases at Re:N ratios of 3:2, 1:3 and 1:4 are iden...

Hsp90 stress potentiates rapid cellular adaptation through induction of aneuploidy
Aneuploidy is shown to be induced by pleiotropic stress conditions (especially Hsp90 inhbition) in yeast, leading to stress adaptation.
