Visualising Physcomitrium patens protoplasts with full‐rotation soft X‐ray tomography
Abstract Soft X‐ray tomography (SXT) is a label‐free, high‐resolution imaging modality that is optimal for 3D visualisation of whole hydrated cells. Although SXT has been extensively used to study remodelling in more than 130 mammalian cell lines, its application to plants remain...

Supporting AI Readiness Through Digital Workflows in Materials Science
Materials science produces heterogeneous data across experiments, simulations, and industrial processes that often remain bound to local formats, manual procedures, and project‐specific software. Digital workflows address this fragmentation through explicit, repeatable, and machi...

Photo‐Degradable Polyester Networks and Multi‐Photon Printed Objects Based on Cyclic Ketene Acetals
ABSTRACT Radical ring‐opening polymerization (RROP) of cyclic ketene acetals (CKAs) constitutes a powerful avenue to biodegradable polyesters via radical polymerization. CKA‐based degradable polymers have been established mainly as linear polymers, while networks from CKA‐based R...

Laser‐Induced Local De‐Doping in Organic Semiconductors
ABSTRACT This study explores control of the doping level in organic semiconductor films using scanning continuous wave laser radiation. The feasibility of this one‐step non‐contact post‐deposition approach is explored for a benchmark material system comprising the high‐mobility p...

Solution-processed flexible neutron converter foils
Abstract The cost increase of helium-3 has sparked the development of alternative detection technologies, specifically the use of boron carbide converters is one of the pillars of next-generation neutron detectors. While producing high-quality films, sputter-coating is limited in...
