Article Synopsis
  • Gas bubbles form during water electrolysis, where hydrogen and oxygen are generated, and they affect the electrode's performance by decreasing its active area.
  • The study uses grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) and optical microscopy to track how the size and coverage of nanobubbles evolve over time during the electrolysis process.
  • It finds that as more charge is passed, the number of nanobubbles increases while their size decreases, and it suggests that reducing dissolved hydrogen could help minimize nanobubble coverage on the surface.

Recent advances in 3D printing have enabled the manufacture of porous electrodes which cannot be machined using traditional methods. With micron-scale precision, the pore structure of an electrode can now be designed for optimal energy efficiency, and a 3D printed electrode is not limited to a single uniform porosity. As these electrodes scale in size, however, the total number of possible pore designs can be intractable; choosing an appropriate pore distribution manually can be a complex task.

In modern cancer treatment, there is significant interest in studying the use of drug molecules either directly injected into the bloodstream or delivered by nanoparticle (NP) carriers of various shapes and sizes. During treatment, these carriers may extravasate through pores in the tumor vasculature that form during angiogenesis. We provide an analytical, computational, and experimental examination of the extravasation of point particles (e.
