We consider discrete models of kinetic rough interfaces that exhibit space-time scale invariance in height-height correlation. We use the generic scaling theory of Ramasco et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 2199 (2000)0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.84.2199] to confirm that the dynamical structure factor of the height profile can uniquely characterize the underlying dynamics. We apply both finite-size and finite-time scaling methods that systematically allow an estimation of the critical exponents and the scaling functions, eventually establishing the universality class accurately. The finite-size scaling analysis offers an alternative way to characterize the anomalous rough interfaces. As an illustration, we investigate a class of self-organized interface models in random media with extremal dynamics. The isotropic version shows a faceted pattern and belongs to the same universality class (as shown numerically) as the Sneppen model (version A). We also examine an anisotropic version of the Sneppen model and suggest that the model belongs to the universality class of the tensionless Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (tKPZ) equation in one dimension.

Photothermal superhydrophobic treatment is an effective anti-icing and de-icing method, avoiding damage to equipment caused by ice accumulation in winter. However, the traditional photothermal materials were expensive and the photothermal conversion coatings are hard to remove when unnecessary. Herein, three biochar microspheres with solid, hollow, and flower-like structures (SBMs, HBMs, FBMs) were fabricated to construct photothermal superhydrophobic coatings on the polyester fabric (PET), respectively.

Graphene and its derivatives have been widely used as reinforcing nanofillers for high-performance polymer nanocomposites. The effectiveness of the reinforcement largely depends on the properties of the nanofiller-matrix interface, which can be represented by the interfacial shear strength (IFSS). This work systematically investigates IFSS enhancements for polyethylene (PE) nanocomposites reinforced by graphene origami (GOri) through molecular dynamics pull-out simulations.

The depletion of lubricants in (slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces) SLIPS poses a significant challenge to their long-term functionality. While line-shaped rough structures can mitigate lubricant loss to some extent, they often fail to provide the stability required for sustained performance. In this study, we present a novel porous nanoflower aluminum alloy slippery liquid-infused surface (P-NF-AA SLIPS), which integrates a porous framework with a rough nanoflower structure.

Controlling the nucleation, growth, and dissolution of Li is crucial for the high cycling stability in rechargeable Li metal batteries. The overpotential for Li nucleation (η) on Li alloys such as Li-Au is generally lower than that on metal current collectors (CCs) with very limited Li solubility like Cu. However, the alloying process of CC and its impact on the Li nucleation kinetics remain unclear.

The development of flexible, intelligent, and lightweight optoelectronic devices based on flexible transparent conductive electrodes (FTCEs) utilizing silver nanowires (AgNWs) has garnered increasing attention. However, achieving low surface resistance, strong adhesion to the flexible substrate, low surface roughness, and green degradability remains a challenge. Here, a composite electrode combining natural polymer cellulose nanofibers (TCNFs) with AgNWs was prepared.
