Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (HOIP) shows great potential for developing flexible and wearable spintronic devices by serving as spin sources via the bulk Rashba effect (BRE). However, the practical application of BRE in 2D HOIP faces huge challenges, particularly due to the toxicity of lead, which is crucial for achieving large spin-orbit coupling, and the restrictions in 2D HOIP candidates to meet specific symmetry-breaking requirements. To overcome these obstacles, we designed a strategy to exploit the interfacial Rashba effect (IRE) of lead-free 2D HOIP (CHCHCHNH)CuCl (PEA-CuCl), manifesting as an efficient spin generator at room temperature.

South Asia contributes the most to stroke mortality worldwide. This study aimed to determine the long-term trends in stroke mortality across four South Asian countries and its associations with age, period, and birth cohort. In 2019, nearly one million stroke deaths occurred across South Asia, and the associated age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) was 80.

However, traditional MTJs are insensitive to light, limiting their functionality in in-memory sensing─a crucial component for machine vision systems in artificial intelligence applications. Herein, the convergence of magnetic memory with optical sensing capabilities is achieved in the all-two-dimensional (2D) magnetic junction FeGaTe/WSe/FeGaTe, which combines 2D magnetism and optoelectronic properties.

Quick self-enrichment of denitrifying bacteria was achieved by supplying brewery wastewater as organic carbon source and using the mature anammox sludge as the seeding sludge. The PD/A process was successfully established after 33-day operation and then the average total nitrogen removal efficiency reached 92.

High-frequency antiferromagnetic resonance in SAFs, especially the optic mode (OM), is highly desired to attain fast operation speed in antiferromagnetic spintronic devices. SAFs exhibit ferromagnetic configurations above saturation field; however in that case, the intensity of OM is theoretically zero and hard to be detected in well-established microwave resonance experiments.

Interplay between magnetism and photoelectric properties introduces the effective control of photoresponse in optoelectronic devices via magnetic field, termed as magneto-photoresponse. It enriches the application scenarios and shows potential to construct in-sensor vision systems for artificial intelligence with gate-free architecture. However, achieving a simultaneous existence of room-temperature magnetism and notable photoelectric properties in semiconductors is a great challenge.

This study developed a comprehensive method including a pretreatment process based on an in vitro metabolic activation system, a comprehensive biological effect evaluation based on concentration-dependent transcriptome (CDT), and a chemical feature identification based on nontarget chemical analysis (NTA), to evaluate the changes in the toxic effects and differences in the chemical composition after metabolism. Models for matching metabolites and precursors as well as data-driven identification methods were further constructed to identify toxic metabolites and key toxic precursor substances in drinking water samples from the Yangtze River.
