When samples are dissolved for HPLC analysis, organic solvents are often used to enhance the solubility of the sample components. However, when the diluent becomes significantly stronger than the mobile phase, peak shape distortions may develop during injection. This is a serious problem for weakly retained analytes under 100% aqueous mobile phase conditions. Under these extreme conditions, even small amounts of solvent in the diluent can cause serious broadening or distortion effects. However, if the organic solvent used in the diluent elutes significantly after the analyte, the peak shape of the analyte will be relatively unaffected, even when a relatively strong solvent such as THF is used. This phenomenon is counterintuitive considering the usual practice of keeping the sample diluent as weak as possible. This report describes the potential analytical utility and limitations of this approach for the analysis of weakly retained analytes.

The evolution of programmable metasurfaces has yielded many exciting electromagnetic (EM) phenomena and applications in both communities of physical and information sciences. Programmable metasurfaces, also known as reconfigurable intelligent surfaces or intelligent reflecting surfaces in wireless communications, have played important roles in enhancing signal coverage and transmission quality, and in building an artificially controlled communication environment. However, most of the realistic implementations are designed in the sub-6G band with a small array scale and 1-bit phase control ability, making the performance improvement not marvelous compared with the traditional solutions.

Liquid-vapor phase-change heat transfer plays an important role in many industrial systems, ranging from power generation and air conditioning to water desalination, food processing, and thermal management of electronics and data centers. Recent advances in micro/nanofabrication have enabled desirable manipulation of multiscale dynamics governing droplet/bubble motion and capillary liquid flows for highly efficient phase-change heat transfer. However, there lacks a comprehensive review on the design and fabrication of micro/nanostructured surfaces with controlled morphology and wettability, to enhance the diverse phase-change heat transfer processes.
