In this study, porous glass with controllable layered structure was successfully prepared by the phase-separation method, with the aim to develop a high-performance high-temperature catalytic (denitrification) material. Glass compositions with different R values (n (NaO)/n (BO)) were designed based on the phase diagram of sodium borosilicate glass. The layered porous structure was obtained by heat treatment in the phase-separation temperature range and acid-leaching treatment to remove the boron-rich phase. For the adsorption and separation process, the layered pore is very ideal, due to its high contact area, high storage capacity and easy mass transfer characteristics, which means it has high adsorption capacity and separation efficiency. The experimental results show that the thickness of the silicon layer can be precisely controlled in the range of 2-23 μm by adjusting the heat treatment time (1.25-10 h), and the material has excellent high-temperature stability (the pore structure parameters do not change significantly after calcination at 600 °C for 10 h). VO (multiphase redox catalyst) can be uniformly loaded by the impregnation method, and the layered structure can be completely retained. The formation process of the layered structure was studied by infrared, Raman spectroscopy and SEM analysis. This study provides a new strategy for the development of customizable porous materials.

BiTe recently emerges as a promising candidate material for the next generation of mid-wave to long-wave infrared photodetection owing to its exceptionally narrow bandgap (approximately 0.2 eV) and the favorable photoelectronic properties. In particular, its topological insulator structure is safeguarded by time-reversal symmetry, leading to electronic structures with distinct surface and bulk states as well as distinctive optoelectronic properties.

This study evaluated the optomechanical and structural properties of individual macroscopic layers in swine skin tissues treated with a nontoxic optical clearing agent. The clearing agent was prepared by dissolving 2,2'-thiodiethanol in a phosphate-buffered solution and applied for up to 6 days. Prolonged clearing increased both the total and unscattered transmittance.

The construction of heterostructures promotes extending the light adsorption range of graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) materials, improving the photogenerated charge carrier separation/transfer efficiency for attaining much enhanced performances. Because defective tungsten oxide (WO) materials possess rich composition/morphology and an extended light response in the near-infrared region, WO is a quite popular nanocomponent for modifying g-CN, forming heterostructures that can be used for various photocatalytic applications involving water splitting, CO reduction, NO removal, HO generation, and related chemical to fuel conversion reactions. In this review, important aspects of WO/g-CN heterostructure photocatalysts are reviewed to provide paradigms for composition adjustment, structural design, and photocatalytic applications of these materials.

Background: Heart valve function requires a highly organized ECM (extracellular matrix) network that provides the necessary biomechanical properties needed to withstand pressure changes during each cardiac cycle. Lay down of the valve ECM begins during embryogenesis and continues throughout postnatal stages when it is remodeled into stratified layers and arranged according to blood flow. Alterations in this process can lead to dysfunction and, if left untreated, heart failure.

Transition metal selenides (TMSe) are promising oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts but act as precursors rather than the actual active phase, transforming into amorphous oxyhydroxides during OER. This transformation, along with the formation of selenium oxyanions and unstable heterointerfaces, complicates the structure-activity relationship and reduces stability. This work introduces novel "layered-hierarchical dual lattice strain engineering" to inhibit the surface reconstruction of NiSe by modulating both the nickel foam (NF) substrate with MoN nanosheets (NM) and the NiSe nanorods-nanosheets catalytic layer (NiSe-NiSe-NiO, NSN) with ultrafast interfacial bimetallic amorphous NiFeOOH coating, achieving the optimized NM/NSN/NiFeOOH configuration.
