Building a Physics-Aware AI Ecosystem for Solid-State Hydrogen Storage Materials
Abstract Hydrogen storage remains a central bottleneck for scalable hydrogen energy systems due to the multiscale and coupled nature of the thermodynamics, kinetics, and microstructural evolution of hydrogen storage materials (HSMs). Although artificial intelligence (AI) has acce...

Synthesis and Property Study on Homoaromatic Thiabenzenes
ABSTRACT Thiabenzenes, as nontraditional heterocycles, exhibit both ylide and aromatic character and pose challenges in synthesis, especially in asymmetric synthesis. Their aromaticity also lacks direct experimental evidence. This article introduces a new strategy for synthesizin...

Buried Interfaces as Functional Architectures in Rechargeable Batteries: A FIB-Enabled Perspective
Buried interfaces and interphases often govern performance loss in rechargeable batteries, although their functions are frequently inferred from spatially averaged composition, surface-sensitive measurements, or cell-level electrochemical response. In this Perspective, an interfa...

Host-ControlledStepwise CO2 Growth onMaleic Anhydride Revealed by Rotational Spectroscopy
Abstract Gas-phase aggregation of CO2 with organic compounds provides molecular-level benchmarks for understanding how weak interactions guide early cluster growth─a process relevant to CO2 recognition, uptake, and organization in chemically diverse environments. Here, clusters o...
