We report a solid-state additive manufacturing route for producing shape-memory ceramic (Zr_0.88Ce_0.12O₂) reinforced metal matrix composites. Using additive friction stir deposition, we implement two feedstock engineering strategies: (i) pre-mixing of powders using a Cu matrix and (ii) hole-pattern drilling using an Al-Mg-Si matrix, where the specific matrix materials are chosen for their distinct shear flow behaviors. The process yields fully dense composites with uniform particle dispersion (20 vol%) and dynamically recrystallized metal matrices. The severe thermomechanical processing conditions also reduce the ceramic particle size, resulting in unique composite microstructures unattainable by alternative processing routes. The as-printed composites can withstand high compressive loads without cracking and retain functionality enabled by thermally and mechanically triggered martensitic transformations. Notably, for the first time, stress-induced martensitic transformation (tetragonal to monoclinic) is observed in bulk-scale composites—but it is only present in the Cu matrix composite, not the Al-Mg-Si counterpart. Micromechanics modeling attributes this contrast to differences in the load transfer and strain hardening capabilities. Complementary to global transformation characterization, Raman mapping reveals that transformation typically initiates at the particle-matrix interface. Together, these results establish a potential pathway for scalable manufacturing of multi-functional metal–shape memory ceramic composites with tunable microstructures and transformation responses.

我们报道了一种用于生产形状记忆陶瓷（zr0.88 ce0.120 o2）增强金属基复合材料的固态增材制造路线。使用添加剂搅拌摩擦沉积，我们实现了两种原料工程策略：(i)使用Cu基体预混合粉末；（ii）使用Al-Mg-Si基体钻孔，其中选择特定的基体材料具有不同的剪切流动行为。该工艺产生具有均匀颗粒分散（20 vol%）和动态再结晶金属基体的全致密复合材料。苛刻的热机械加工条件也减小了陶瓷的颗粒尺寸，产生了独特的复合微观结构，这是其他加工路线无法实现的。打印后的复合材料可以承受高压缩载荷而不会开裂，并保留由热和机械触发的马氏体转变所实现的功能。值得注意的是，首次在大块复合材料中观察到应力诱导马氏体相变（四方向单斜），但它只存在于Cu基复合材料中，而不存在于Al-Mg-Si对应材料中。微观力学建模将这种对比归因于载荷传递和应变硬化能力的差异。作为整体转换表征的补充，拉曼映射揭示了转换通常从粒子-矩阵界面开始。总之，这些结果为具有可调微结构和转换响应的多功能金属形状记忆陶瓷复合材料的可扩展制造建立了一条潜在的途径。

Thermochemical upcycling has emerged as a promising industrial pathway for selectively converting waste plastics into high-value fuels, monomers, hydrogen, and carbon nanotubes, with some processes already achieving commercial deployment beyond the laboratory scale. However, a comprehensive review synthesizing recent advances in catalyst design, reactor engineering, and mechanistic insights into key thermochemical pathways remains critically lacking. To address this gap, this study aims to expedite the commercialization of thermochemical upcycling. It supports this objective by highlighting global industrial trends, emphasizing how major industrial leaders (like BASF, Dow, LG Chem, and SABIC) are pursuing their circular economy goals. Relevant policy landscapes, including carbon taxes and emissions trading, are discussed in relation to process viability. Various reactor configurations are also compared for product yield, energy efficiency, and heat integration, along with mechanistic insights into the structure–activity relationships and catalytic surface interactions. This study quantifies carbon emissions and tax implications using a lifecycle analysis, while commercial potential is assessed via experimental and simulation data. The adoption of coupled reactor systems and their subsequent integration with renewable energy should make significant advances toward next-generation processes that can address the complexity of mixed-plastic streams. Overall, this review offers a forward-looking roadmap for realizing scalable, low-carbon thermochemical systems to address plastic waste challenges.

热化学升级回收已经成为一种有前途的工业途径，可以选择性地将废塑料转化为高价值的燃料、单体、氢和碳纳米管，其中一些工艺已经在实验室规模之外实现了商业部署。然而，在催化剂设计、反应器工程和关键热化学途径的机理方面的最新进展的综合综述仍然非常缺乏。为了解决这一差距，本研究旨在加速热化学升级回收的商业化。它通过强调全球工业趋势，强调主要工业领导者（如巴斯夫、陶氏、LG化学和沙特基础工业公司）如何追求他们的循环经济目标来支持这一目标。相关的政策景观，包括碳税和排放交易，讨论了与过程可行性的关系。不同的反应器配置也比较了产品产量、能源效率和热集成，以及结构-活性关系和催化表面相互作用的机理见解。本研究使用生命周期分析量化碳排放和税收影响，同时通过实验和模拟数据评估商业潜力。耦合反应器系统的采用及其随后与可再生能源的集成应该会在下一代工艺方面取得重大进展，这些工艺可以解决混合塑料流的复杂性。总体而言，本综述为实现可扩展的低碳热化学系统以应对塑料废物挑战提供了前瞻性路线图。

Emerging memory technologies are critical to enhancing the memory hierarchy for high-performance computing. Among them, storage class memory (SCM) aims to bridge the latency gap between working and storage memories and support efficient neuromorphic processing of unstructured data. Despite progress in resistive memory technologies, challenges remain for large-scale commercialization due to limited performance reliability, process compatibility, and high-density integration issues. In this study, we report a selector-only-memory (SOM) device based on a threshold-switching chalcogenide material, which uniquely enables both memory and selector functionalities within a single layer. The device exhibits volatile current switching yet nonvolatile modulation of threshold voltage (V_th), governed by electronic trap dynamics and confirmed through Poole–Frenkel conduction analysis and material characterization. We further develop a pulse-based programming algorithm for reliable multilevel V_th control and demonstrate stable 3-bit operation with low adjacent-state overlap and excellent thermal retention. Finally, we integrate the SOM device into a 4k crossbar array and verify > 95 % functional yield and robust random accessibility. This work highlights the potential of selector-class materials for enabling high-density, selector-free memory architectures, and opens new opportunities for analog computing and compute-in-memory (CIM) applications. Our findings suggest a promising pathway toward compact, energy-efficient, and scalable nonvolatile memory solutions.

新兴的内存技术对于增强高性能计算的内存层次结构至关重要。其中，存储类记忆（SCM）旨在弥合工作记忆和存储记忆之间的延迟差距，支持对非结构化数据进行高效的神经形态处理。尽管电阻式存储技术取得了进步，但由于性能可靠性、工艺兼容性和高密度集成问题的限制，大规模商业化仍然面临挑战。在这项研究中，我们报告了一种基于阈值开关硫族材料的选择器-仅记忆（SOM）器件，该器件在单层内独特地实现了记忆和选择器功能。该器件具有易失性电流开关和阈值电压（Vth）的非易失性调制，由电子陷阱动力学控制，并通过普尔-弗伦克尔传导分析和材料表征得到证实。我们进一步开发了一种基于脉冲的编程算法，用于可靠的多电平v控制，并演示了稳定的3位操作，具有低邻接状态重叠和出色的热保持性。最后，我们将SOM器件集成到4k交叉棒阵列中，并验证了>； 95 %的功能产率和鲁棒随机可及性。这项工作突出了选择器类材料在实现高密度、无选择器内存架构方面的潜力，并为模拟计算和内存计算（CIM）应用开辟了新的机会。我们的发现为紧凑、节能和可扩展的非易失性存储器解决方案提供了一条有希望的途径。

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is a crucial chemical with broad applications in environmental protection, chemical synthesis, and industrial processes. While traditionally produced via the energy-intensive anthraquinone oxidation process, emerging electrocatalytic methods based on two-electron oxygen reduction (2e⁻ ORR) and water oxidation (2e⁻ WOR) reactions offer a sustainable, decentralized, and on-demand alternative for H₂O₂ generation. This review systematically examines the mechanistic pathways and evaluation strategies of both 2e⁻ ORR and 2e⁻ WOR, focusing on three critical aspects: 1) Catalyst design strategies to enhance active site exposure and selectively drive the 2e⁻ pathway while suppressing the competing 4e⁻ pathway. 2) Regulation of the reaction microenvironment, including electrolyte composition and three-phase interface (TPI) engineering, to optimize oxygen transport and interfacial dynamics. 3) Innovations in scalable electrocatalytic systems, highlighting integrated co-electrolysis platforms capable of simultaneously producing H₂O₂ and other value-added products. By combining molecular-level catalyst design with system-level device engineering, this review outlines challenges and provides forward-looking insights for guiding the development of green and efficient H₂O₂ production.

过氧化氢（H2O2）是一种重要的化学物质，在环境保护、化学合成和工业过程中有着广泛的应用。虽然传统上是通过能源密集型的蒽醌氧化工艺生产的，但基于双电子氧还原（2e - ORR）和水氧化（2e - WOR）反应的新兴电催化方法为生成H2O2提供了可持续的、分散的、按需的替代方法。本综述系统地研究了2e - ORR和2e - WOR的机制途径和评估策略，重点关注三个关键方面：1)催化剂设计策略，以增强活性位点暴露和选择性地驱动2e -途径，同时抑制竞争的4e -途径。2)调节反应微环境，包括电解质组成和三相界面（TPI）工程，优化氧输运和界面动力学。3)可扩展电催化系统的创新，重点是能够同时生产H2O2和其他增值产品的集成共电解平台。通过将分子级催化剂设计与系统级设备工程相结合，本文概述了面临的挑战，并为指导绿色高效H2O2生产的发展提供了前瞻性见解。

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) has become a versatile technique for engineering photoelectrochemical (PEC) devices through atomic-scale control of film composition and thickness, while ensuring excellent conformality. Through its sequential, self-limiting surface reactions, the technique enables controlled and conformal deposition of protective, catalytic, and light-absorbing layers across diverse materials platforms. This review comprehensively examines semiconductor-based ALD strategies that modulate band alignment, defect passivation, and charge transport in key photoelectrode materials such as TiO₂, Fe₂O₃, WO₃, BiVO₄, Cu₂O, and Ta₂O₅. Representative studies reporting performance metrics such as photocurrent enhancement, catalytic activity, and reaction kinetics are summarized to highlight the diverse roles ALD plays in PEC systems. These roles are delineated into protective layers, catalytic interlayers, and semiconductor heterojunctions, linking atomic-scale control to macroscopic performance. The review also highlights emerging directions, including interface grading, angstrom-scale dopant engineering, area-selective and spatial ALD, in situ monitoring, and scalable manufacturing. Together, these advances position ALD as a precision fabrication process that bridges fundamental interface design with industrially relevant PEC implementation, advancing the realization of efficient and durable solar-fuel technologies.

Batteries are currently the most widely utilized electrochemical energy storage devices. The properties of the electrode/electrolyte interface, which serves as the critical region for electrochemical reactions and charge transfer, significantly determine the performance of lithium-ion batteries. Therefore, precise characterization and analysis of the electrode/electrolyte interface are crucial for the development of high-performance lithium-ion batteries. In contrast to traditional ex situ characterization methods, in situ characterization techniques can monitor the evolution of material or device properties in real-time under actual operating conditions, thereby avoiding potential interference and contamination during sample preparation and transfer. This capability renders in situ techniques an essential research tool in battery development. This review systematically summarizes the in-situ characterization techniques employed in recent studies concerning the evolution of electrode/electrolyte interfaces from three perspectives: morphology, composition, and physicochemical properties. It highlights the latest application scenarios for each testing method while emphasizing their respective advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, the review discusses the application of artificial intelligence technology in image processing, data mining, and inference, and anticipates future trends in testing and data analysis technologies.

Perovskite–organic heterostructure photovoltaics can extend spectral response into the near-infrared while maintaining high photovoltage, yet their efficiencies have trailed best-in-class perovskite single junctions due to interfacial charge accumulation arising from energy-level mismatches, limited carrier mobility, and unfavorable contact at the perovskite/bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) interface. Here, we develop a synergistic ternary-D18-Cl:PY-IT:PC₇₁BM-concurrently coordinates morphology and interfacial energetics. The polymeric acceptor PY-IT suppresses excessive aggregation and promotes well-intermixed percolation, while D18-Cl enhances mobility and PC71BM provides an energy “springboard” that alleviates residual donor-induced misalignment. Devices based on this architecture achieve an impressive power conversion efficiency of 26.19 % with a fill factor above 85 % and outstanding operational stability. Spectroscopy and device diagnostics reveal substantially reduced interfacial charge accumulation, suppressed non-radiative losses, and balanced interfacial transport compared with conventional small-molecule acceptor–dominated BHJs. This work presents a general strategy that links ternary BHJ design to interfacial charge control, offering a pathway for high-efficiency, durable perovskite–organic heterostructure solar cells (HSCs).

钙钛矿-有机异质结构光伏电池可以在保持高光电电压的情况下将光谱响应扩展到近红外，但由于能级不匹配引起的界面电荷积累、载流子迁移率有限以及钙钛矿/体异质结（BHJ）界面的不利接触，它们的效率落后于同类最佳的钙钛矿单结。在这里，我们开发了一个协同三元- d18 - cl:PY-IT: pc71bm -同时协调形态和界面能量。聚合物受体PY-IT抑制过度聚集，促进良好混合的渗透，而D18-Cl增强迁移率，PC71BM提供能量“跳板”，减轻残留供体诱导的错位。基于该架构的器件实现了令人印象深刻的26.19 %的功率转换效率，填充系数高于85 %，并且具有出色的运行稳定性。光谱学和设备诊断显示，与传统的小分子受体主导的bhj相比，它大大减少了界面电荷积累，抑制了非辐射损失，并平衡了界面传输。这项工作提出了一种将三元BHJ设计与界面电荷控制联系起来的一般策略，为高效、耐用的钙钛矿-有机异质结构太阳能电池（hsc）提供了一条途径。

As an abundant and biocompatible biopolymer, cellulose exhibits great potential in sustainable triboelectric energy harvesting. However, its inherently weak molecular polarity severely limits mechano-electric conversion performance. Herein, we develop a precision molecular polarity engineering strategy that significantly enhances interfacial charge transfer by grafting strongly electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups onto cellulose macromolecular chains, respectively. This strategy involves a two-step grafting reaction process controlled by steric hindrance effect. Initially, small-molecule intermediates with low steric hindrance are selectively installed onto the highly active C6 hydroxyl groups via a “grafting to” method, establishing well-defined controlled polymerization sites. Subsequently, high-polarity amino/fluoro-containing moieties are precisely introduced through a “grafting from” polymerization, with the grafting degree finely regulated by initiator concentration modulation. Through combined experimental and computational studies, a quantitative structure-property relationship is established, revealing that molecular polarity enhancement can effectively improve interfacial charge transfer efficiency. As a result, the optimized cellulosic triboelectric textile demonstrates a remarkable enhanced charge density of 48.5 μC m⁻² with more than four-fold improvement, enabling its successful applications in emergency power systems and self-powered sensors. This work provides a transformative precision molecular polarity engineering strategy for designing next-generation high-performance triboelectric biopolymers.

纤维素作为一种丰富的、具有生物相容性的生物聚合物，在可持续的摩擦电能收集中显示出巨大的潜力。然而，其固有的弱分子极性严重限制了其机电转换性能。在此，我们开发了一种精确的分子极性工程策略，通过将强给电子和强吸电子基团分别接枝到纤维素大分子链上，显著增强了界面电荷转移。该策略涉及由位阻效应控制的两步接枝反应过程。最初，通过“接枝”方法，将具有低位阻的小分子中间体选择性地安装到高活性的C6羟基上，建立明确的可控聚合位点。随后，通过聚合“接枝”精确地引入高极性的氨基/含氟基团，接枝程度由引发剂浓度调制精细调节。通过实验与计算相结合的研究，建立了定量的构性关系，揭示了分子极性增强可以有效地提高界面电荷转移效率。结果表明，优化后的纤维摩擦电织物的电荷密度显著提高至48.5 μC m−2，提高了4倍以上，使其成功应用于应急电源系统和自供电传感器。这项工作为设计下一代高性能摩擦电生物聚合物提供了一种变革性的精确分子极性工程策略。

The development of ultrahigh-temperature thermal protection materials (TPMs) with long-term ablation resistance is crucial for high-speed aircraft, where surface heat accumulation and protective layer instability remain key limiting factors for service lifetime. Ultrahigh-temperature TPMs face a critical challenge in balancing active cooling and passive protection during long-term servicing. Inspired by human skin’s thermoregulation and tree rings’ functional partitioning, we present a dual-biomimetic structural design strategy for carbon/carbon (C/C) composites that overcomes this limitation. Through a novel selective-area reactive melt infiltration method and design of thermal conductive rods, we engineered bioinspired C/C composites featuring: (1) high-thermal-conductivity Cu channels mimicking hair shafts for enhanced heat dissipation, (2) a functional partitioning architecture effectively mitigating thermal stress with an ablation-resistant ZrC-Cu core and sweat-cooling SiC-Cu-Cu_xSi_y periphery, and (3) highly stable oxide protective film at ablation surface. This dual-biomimetic structure design synergistically reduces surface heat accumulation and surface temperature (active cooling via heat conduction and dissipation), and promotes a formation of La-stabilized oxide films (relying on regulating the phase transition), enabling the bioinspired C/C composites to achieve thermal protection for 720 s with negligible ablation damage at a high heat flux of 4.18 MW/m² and a temperature exceeding 2400 °C, which surpass most reported C/C-based TPMs. Our work establishes a new paradigm for designing long-duration TPMs through bioinspired multifunctional integration, with broad implications for aerospace applications and extreme environment materials.

开发具有长期抗烧蚀性能的超高温热防护材料（TPMs）对于高速飞机来说至关重要，因为飞机表面热积累和保护层不稳定仍然是限制飞机使用寿命的关键因素。在长期使用中，超高温TPMs面临着平衡主动冷却和被动保护的关键挑战。受人体皮肤的温度调节和树木年轮的功能划分的启发，我们提出了一种克服这一限制的碳/碳（C/C）复合材料的双仿生结构设计策略。通过一种新的选择性区域反应熔体渗透方法和导热棒的设计，我们设计了仿生C/C复合材料，其特点是：(1)模拟毛轴的高导热Cu通道增强散热；(2)功能分区结构有效减轻热应力，具有耐烧蚀的ZrC-Cu核心和汗液冷却的SiC-Cu-CuxSiy外围；(3)烧蚀表面高度稳定的氧化物保护膜。这种双仿生结构设计协同降低了表面热量积累和表面温度（通过热传导和散热进行主动冷却），并促进了la稳定氧化物膜的形成（依赖于调节相变），使仿生C/C复合材料在4.18 MW/m2的高热流和超过2400 °C的温度下实现720 s的热保护，而烧蚀损伤可以忽略，这超过了大多数基于C/C的TPMs。我们的工作建立了一个通过生物启发多功能集成设计长寿命TPMs的新范例，对航空航天应用和极端环境材料具有广泛的影响。

Sensing helps human beings to survive and develop better from the aspects of detecting vital signs, monitoring living environment, ensuring food safety, etc. Although many advanced advances have been made, there are still many issues in the field of surface and interface wettability, which limits the theoretical innovation and application prospects of sensors. Encouragingly, natural organism surfaces exhibit fascinating and specific wetting behaviors, and this special bionic strategy provides an advanced design idea for solving the above problems. Analyzing the essential behavior of droplet motion is crucial for improving sensing performance through wettability regulation, which can inspire novel designs of next-generation sensors from the intrinsic mechanism. Thus, this review aims to analyze the essence of enhancing sensing performance of biomimetic wetting materials from models of droplet contact with surfaces and interfaces. Some naturally wetting surfaces that are currently or potentially related to sensing are first discussed. After analyzing the basic wetting models and mechanisms for improving sensing performance, recent advances in bioinspired wetting materials for sensing are systematically and critically reviewed based on droplet interface behavior. Finally, challenges and prospects of bioinspired wetting materials for sensing are presented.
