A fast and straightforward fabrication process for producing a robust, flexible, and transparent conductive film was demonstrated using nanowelding of Ag nanowires through pressure-assisted microwave irradiation. This innovative process effectively reduces the sheet resistance of the Ag nanowire transparent conductive film without causing any thermal distortion to the PET substrate. The microwave irradiation induces nanowelding between Ag nanowires, leading to a decrease in sheet resistance by forming nanowelding junctions. This selective heating of Ag nanowires further enhances the reduction in sheet resistance. Additionally, the application of pressure-assisted microwave irradiation allows the Ag nanowires to be embedded into the PET substrate, resulting in the formation of a robust film capable of withstanding cycling bending stress. The pressure-assisted microwave irradiation process proves to be a strong fabrication method for creating Ag nanowire transparent conductive films, especially when dealing with thermally weak substrate materials.

The brain is an organ that consumes a substantial amount of oxygen, and a reduction in oxygen concentration can rapidly lead to significant and irreversible brain injury. The progression of brain injury during hypoxia involves the depletion of intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) due to decreased oxidative phosphorylation in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Allopurinol is a purine analog inhibitor of xanthine oxidoreductase that protects against hypoxic/ischemic brain injury; however, its underlying mechanism of action remains unclear.

The mechanisms underlying three thermal processing methods, namely hot-air drying, microwave irradiation, and heat fluidization, were systematically investigated to evaluate their effects on the structural, functional, and flour-processing properties of whole-grain highland barley. Starch granules were partially damaged when treated with hot-air drying and microwave irradiation. However, these granules were predominantly aggregated or encapsulated in proteins following heat fluidization.

The pressing necessity to mitigate climate change and decrease greenhouse gas emissions has driven the advancement of heterostructure-based photocatalysts for effective CO₂ reduction. This study introduces a novel heterojunction photocatalyst formed by integrating potassium-doped polymeric carbon nitride (KPCN) with metallic Zn₃N₂, synthesized via a microwave-assisted molten salt method. The resulting Schottky contact effectively suppresses the reverse diffusion of electrons, achieving spatial separation of photogenerated charges and prolonging their lifetime, which significantly enhances photocatalytic activity and efficiency.

The rational design of highly efficient and cost-effective oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is crucial for hydrogen production through electrocatalytic water splitting. Although the crystalline/amorphous heterostructure shows great potential in enhancing OER activity, its fabrication presents significantly greater challenges compared to that of crystalline/crystalline heterostructures. Herein, a microwave irradiation strategy is developed to construct reduced graphene oxide supported crystalline NiP/amorphous FePO heterostructure (NiP/FePO/RGO) as an efficient OER electrocatalyst.
