Synergistic Dual‐Channel Charge Separation in Cr‐TiO 2‐x for Solar H 2 O 2 Synthesis
ABSTRACT Solar‐driven hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) synthesis offers a sustainable alternative to the energy‐intensive anthraquinone process, yet its efficiency is fundamentally constrained by the inability to simultaneously harness photogenerated electrons and holes in a balanced...

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...

Plant species identification by genome skimming across the vascular plant tree of life
Summary Accurate species identification is essential for biodiversity conservation and sustainable use, yet standard plant DNA barcoding often fails to achieve species‐level resolution. We present a large‐scale empirical evaluation of genome skimming as a tool to improve plant sp...
