Polymer-Driven Self-Templated Synthesis of Boronate-COF Hollow Spheres: Toward the Development of Size-Selective Nanoreactors

Abstract Covalent organic frameworks are a family of porous crystalline structures gaining attention due to their promising applications. However, despite significant efforts, the synthesis and understanding of uniform and specific morphologies remain a challenge. Herein, we repo...

Measuring Ocean Surface Waves

Abstract Propagating waves on the ocean surface can be represented as a stochastic process whose statistics are characterized by a spectrum. This paper reviews methods for measuring the wave spectrum and related quantities. Observations begin by sensing fluid dynamical properties...

A ComplexSpin-Transition Thermal Hysteresis Unlockedby Two Competing Symmetry-Breakings

Abstract The spin-crossover material [Fe(NH2trz)3](NO3)2 belongs to the class of 1D triazole-based polymeric SCO complexes. It exhibits a thermal phase transition, with a 28 K wide thermal hysteresis, characterized by phase transition temperatures T↑ = 346 K upon warming and T↓ =...

Bioelectrical Impedance in Cardiovascular Health

Bioelectrical impedance (BI) is gaining significant attention for its potential in cardiovascular health monitoring and early disease detection. On the basis of the principles of tissue conductivity and body composition, BI operates by applying a low-amplitude alternating current...

Hydration-dependent exciton-phonon coupling in a metal-organic framework photocatalyst

Abstract Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have potential for light-harvesting applications owing to their tunable optoelectronic properties via building block selection. The presence of bound solvent in MOFs is known to impact gas adsorption properties, but little is known about t...
