During zebrafish embryogenesis, the enveloping layer (EVL) – an epithelial monolayer covering the blastoderm – undergoes extensive spreading that is driven by pulling forces exerted at its margin and more than doubles its surface area. Yet whether and how the EVL actively regulates its tissue tension during this process remains unclear. Here, we show that the EVL maintains constant tissue tension while spreading, and that it achieves this by reducing apical cell contractility in response to the same pulling forces that drive its spreading. We identify a mechanosensitive pathway underlying this response, mediated by the scaffold/adaptor protein Kibra regulating the activity of atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) at the apical domain of EVL cells. Under low mechanical stretch, Kibra forms condensates at the base of actin-based apical projections, where it activates Myosin II to increase apical contractility through aPKC downregulation. As mechanical stretch increases, apical projections disassemble, Kibra condensates dissolve, and aPKC activity rises. Elevated aPKC activity in turn reduces apical contractility by reducing Myosin II activity, thereby maintaining constant tissue tension despite increased mechanical stretch. Together, these findings reveal a mechanosensitive mechanism that enables robust adaptation of tissue tension to changing mechanical stretch, ensuring efficient tissue spreading and morphogenesis.","lang":"eng"}],"acknowledgement":"We thank all members of the Heisenberg group for discussion and feedback on the manuscript, and the Imaging and Optics Facility, the Life Science Support Facility and the Electron Microscopy Facility of the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) for their continued support.

Although transcription by Pol II is intensively studied, how this central multi-subunit enzyme is made and the role of dedicated assembly factors remains unclear. Here, we report the integrative structural analysis of a native human Pol II from the cytoplasm captured near the end of biogenesis. The complex contains Gdown1 and three biogenesis factors – RPAP2 and the critical small GTPases GPN1 and GPN3. Cryo-EM analysis of the complex reveals how Gdown1 and RPAP2 associate with Pol II and prevent the premature association of transcription factors. Further biochemical and cryo-EM analysis reveals how RPAP2 tethers GPN1–GPN3 to the complex and how the assembly of the RPAP2–GPN1–GPN3 complex is controlled by GTP hydrolysis. The combined results uncover a network of interactions that chaperone cytoplasmic Pol II to prevent aberrant interactions, reveal a molecular switch regulating biogenesis factor association, and suggest a general mechanism for the action of GPN-loop GTPase family of enzymes.","lang":"eng"}],"acknowledgement":"We thank A.

However, it suffers from poor cycle life associated with the rock-salt phase transformation. This study presents a straightforward synthesis approach to enhance the electrochemical performance of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 through a synergistic solid-state modification with LiF and AlF3. This dual modification promotes rapid Li⁺ diffusion, enables near-complete delithiation/lithiation, approaching the theoretical capacity of disordered LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4, and, more importantly, effectively mitigates the formation of the rock-salt phase, thereby enhancing structural stability, as confirmed by operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and synchrotron X-ray diffraction (SXRD). As a result, the optimized LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (10 mg AlF3 + 30 mg LiF) delivers high reversible capacities of 142.1, 139.1, 129.2, 121.6, 110.3, 93.5, and 76.1 mAh∙g−1 at 0.2C, 0.5C, 1.0C, 2.0C, 3.0C, 4.0C, and 5.0C, respectively. Full cells using graphite as the anode and a high-loading cathode exhibit excellent cycling performance. They retain 80% of their capacity after 200 cycles at 0.5C within a voltage window of 3.5–4.9 V with cathode loading of 11 mg∙cm−2. The findings of this study will significantly advance high-power LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 materials, offering improved battery life and thereby enhancing their potential for practical applications."}],"article_type":"original","acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the European Commission-financed project IntelLigent (HORIZON-CL5-2021-D2-01-02) with project ID number 101069765.

In this study, FeCoNiMoW HEAs are synthesized into either amorphous nanosheets (HEANS) or crystalline nanoparticles (HEANP), which are then used to catalyze the lithium–sulfur (Li–S) reaction of Li–S batteries (LSBs). Evaluations in symmetric cells, coin cells, and pouch cells reveal that HEANS significantly enhance LSB performance, achieving initial discharge capacities up to 1632 mAh g−1. The batteries also exhibit excellent cycling stability over 1000 cycles at 3Cand maintain high-rate performance up to 10C with a capacity of 614 mAh g−1. Comprehensive in situ analyses and density functional theory calculations demonstrate that amorphous HEANS provide more active sites, better ionic conductivity and stronger chemical interactions with lithium polysulfides (LiPS). These properties effectively suppress the shuttle effect, promote the complete S8 → Li2S conversion by reducing the impedance of the solid-electrolyte interphase, and accelerate the Li2S4 → Li2S2 step by lowering the nucleation energy barrier. Overall, this study highlights the superior catalytic properties of amorphous 2D HEAs in LSBs and offers new insights into the mechanisms of LiPS conversion."}],"status":"public","oa":1,"publication":"Advanced Functional Materials","month":"01","isi":1,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/","dataavailabilitystatement":"The data that support the findings of this study are available from the cor-responding authors upon reasonable request.","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"EM-Fac"}],"quality_controlled":"1","ddc":["540"]},{"oa_version":"Published Version","researchdata_availability":"upon request","author":[{"first_name":"Changwei","last_name":"Shi","full_name":"Shi, Changwei"},{"first_name":"Sharona","id":"03a7e858-01b1-11ec-8b71-99ae6c4a05bc","last_name":"Horta","full_name":"Horta, Sharona"},{"first_name":"Maria","id":"43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0001-5013-2843","last_name":"Ibáñez","full_name":"Ibáñez, Maria"},{"first_name":"Tanja","full_name":"Kallio, Tanja","last_name":"Kallio"},{"first_name":"Paulina R.","last_name":"Martínez-Alanis","full_name":"Martínez-Alanis, Paulina R."},{"first_name":"Xiang","full_name":"Wang, Xiang","last_name":"Wang"},{"first_name":"Andreu","full_name":"Cabot, Andreu","last_name":"Cabot"}],"file":[{"file_size":8345535,"file_id":"22418","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","checksum":"c47f1704be452cdefb2b930884693578","date_created":"2026-07-27T11:03:37Z","success":1,"date_updated":"2026-07-27T11:03:37Z","file_name":"2026_ChemicalEngineeringScience_Shi.pdf","creator":"dernst"}],"doi":"10.1016/j.ces.2026.123348","intvolume":"       324","das_tickbox":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","article_number":"123348","publication_status":"published","title":"Hydrogen induced palladium-based heterojunction electrocatalysts to enhance the oxygen reduction reaction performance","supplementarymaterial":"yes","citation":{"mla":"Shi, Changwei, et al. “Hydrogen Induced Palladium-Based Heterojunction Electrocatalysts to Enhance the Oxygen Reduction Reaction Performance.” <i>Chemical Engineering Science</i>, vol. 324, 123348, Elsevier, 2026, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2026.123348\">10.1016/j.ces.2026.123348</a>.","ista":"Shi C, Horta S, Ibáñez M, Kallio T, Martínez-Alanis PR, Wang X, Cabot A. 2026.

Here, we report a simple strategy for synthesizing a palladium-based heterostructured electrocatalyst supported on a carbon nitride matrix (PdH-Pd@CN), which exhibits remarkable ORR activity with a half-wave potential of 0.91 V and excellent durability in 0.1 M KOH. Within the heterostructure, hydrogen intercalation expands the Pd lattice, while interstitial hydrogen doping facilitates charge transfer from Pd to H owing to their electronegativity difference. These synergistic effects modulate the electronic structure, thereby enhancing both activity and stability. When employed in Zn-air batteries, PdH-Pd@CN delivers a maximum power density of 176 mW cm− (Liu et al., 2025) and capacity of 805 mAh g− (Sun et al., 2021) Zn. These findings demonstrate the strong potential of PdH-Pd@CN as an efficient ORR electrocatalyst for next-generation metal-air batteries and related energy technologies.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","acknowledgement":"The authors thank the support from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) (Grants No. 22302151) and Natural Science Foundation of Hubei Province (Grants No. 2024AFB755, 2024AFB267), Key Project of Hubei Provincial Department of Education Scientific Research Plan (F2023007).

They are force-free and can be described as hydrodynamic force dipoles: pushers or pullers. This modelling description is broadly used in biological physics and active matter research, and it has successfully predicted, for example, the superfluid behaviour of suspensions of pushers or the bend instability and emergence of turbulent flows in active nematics. However, this description accounts only for the translational motion of the swimming body and neglects the effects of hydrodynamic torque dipoles, which are relevant to bacteria with rotary motor-driven flagella, such as swimming Escherichia coli. Here we show that the torque dipole of confined swimming E. coli can power the persistent rotation of symmetric discs. The torque dipole leads to a traction force on the discs, an additive mechanism that is both contactless and independent of the orientation of the bacteria. Our results indicate that the torque dipole of swimming E. coli is notable in confined geometries, which is relevant to bacterial transport through porous materials, biofilms and the development of chiral fluids.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","external_id":{"pmid":["42006933"]},"pmid":1,"author":[{"id":"c692f879-718d-11ee-81f0-da7caa79c783","first_name":"Daniel B","full_name":"Grober, Daniel B","last_name":"Grober"},{"first_name":"Tanumoy","full_name":"Dhar, Tanumoy","last_name":"Dhar"},{"first_name":"David","last_name":"Saintillan","full_name":"Saintillan, David"},{"first_name":"Jérémie A","id":"8fb92548-2b22-11eb-b7c1-a3f0d08d7c7d","last_name":"Palacci","orcid":"0000-0002-7253-9465","full_name":"Palacci, Jérémie A"}],"file":[{"access_level":"open_access","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"22429","file_size":2960392,"checksum":"bb28ed456cdd288d97854b084dd4b2e1","date_created":"2026-07-27T12:28:27Z","date_updated":"2026-07-27T12:28:27Z","success":1,"file_name":"2026_NaturePhysics_Grober.pdf","creator":"dernst"}],"researchdata_availability":"yes","doi":"10.1038/s41567-026-03189-4","oa_version":"Published Version","PlanS_conform":"1","publication_status":"published","das_tickbox":"1","intvolume":"        22"},{"department":[{"_id":"Bio"},{"_id":"CaHe"},{"_id":"EdHa"}],"has_accepted_license":"1","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_published":"2026-07-17T00:00:00Z","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2041-1723"]},"type":"journal_article","year":"2026","day":"17","date_updated":"2026-07-29T10:33:31Z","file_date_updated":"2026-07-29T10:27:25Z","volume":17,"project":[{"_id":"8f060199-16d5-11f0-9cad-f3253b266c46","grant_number":"PAT 5044023","name":"Keratins in epithelial tissue spreading"},{"name":"Nano-Analytics of Cellular Systems","grant_number":"W1250-B20","call_identifier":"FWF","_id":"252C3B08-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"}],"supplementarymaterial":"yes","citation":{"short":"S.

How spreading tissues balance flexibility with integrity is not yet well understood. Here, we show that keratin intermediate filaments adapt tissue mechanical resilience to the stresses arising in epithelial tissues during spreading. By analyzing the expansion of the enveloping cell layer (EVL) over the yolk cell in zebrafish embryos in vivo, we find that keratin network maturation in EVL cells is promoted by stresses building up within the spreading tissue. Through genetic interference and tissue rheology experiments, complemented by a vertex model with mechanochemical feedback, we demonstrate that stress-induced keratin network maturation in the EVL increases tissue viscosity, to prevent tissue rupture. Further, keratins are required in the yolk cell for mechanosensitive actomyosin network contraction and flow, the forces pulling the EVL. These dual mechanosensitive functions of keratins enable a balance between pulling force production and EVL mechanical resilience, ensuring uniform and robust tissue spreading."}],"article_type":"original","publisher":"Springer Nature","scopus_import":"1","date_created":"2026-07-29T09:10:35Z","OA_place":"publisher","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"_id":"22608","quality_controlled":"1","ddc":["570"],"acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"Bio"},{"_id":"ScienComp"},{"_id":"LifeSc"},{"_id":"EM-Fac"}],"dataavailabilitystatement":"The authors declare that the minimum dataset that is necessary to\r\ninterpret, verify, and extend the research in this article is included in\r\nthe supplementary information, the source data, and the archived data\r\nrepository (https://doi.org/10.15479/AT-ISTA-21137).

Using PbTe nanocrystals as a model system, we identify Pb–oleate oligomers in the crude reaction mixture, characterize their solution structure, and quantify their contribution to the interparticle potential, establishing depletion as the dominant short-range interaction governing spontaneous body-centered cubic superlattice formation. We then confirm the depletion origin of ordering by showing that varying depletant concentration predictably shifts the order–disorder boundary and produces a thermally reversible transition between dispersed and ordered states ─ behavior that is inconsistent with van der Waals or ligand-mediated mechanisms but is a direct consequence of depletion control. Having established and validated the mechanism, we demonstrate that the same depletion framework can be deliberately activated in purified dispersions and transferred across nanocrystal systems of different composition and shape, including anisotropic and binary assemblies. These results establish precursor-derived depletion as a general and chemically grounded mechanism for nanocrystal superlattice formation, and show that collective ordering can be programmed through the surrounding medium rather than through particle surface modification."}],"article_type":"original","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"_id":"22645","OA_place":"publisher","scopus_import":"1","date_created":"2026-08-04T06:29:31Z","page":"31245-31252"},{"year":"2026","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1097-2765"],"eissn":["1097-4164"]},"type":"journal_article","date_updated":"2026-08-12T12:08:44Z","day":"22","has_accepted_license":"1","department":[{"_id":"LeSa"}],"date_published":"2026-06-22T00:00:00Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"user_id":"ba8df636-2132-11f1-aed0-ed93e2281fdd","OA_type":"hybrid","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molcel.2026.05.026","open_access":"1"}],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","title":"Structure of E.

The Tat system, found in prokaryotes and plant organelles, recognizes a cargo signal peptide via a conserved twin-arginine motif. The multi-subunit Tat complex facilitates the proton-motive-force-dependent translocation process, yet its overall architecture has remained unknown. Here, we present the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of the Escherichia coli (E. coli) trimeric TatB₃C₃ complex with bound substrate SufI, assembled in vivo. The complex adopts an unusual, wide-open, bowl-shaped architecture with a polar inner cavity. Unexpectedly, the cargo is engaged in a dual-contact mode: while the signal peptide binds inside one TatBC unit, the folded domain docks tightly onto an adjacent unit, possibly performing a proofreading function. This structure provides a mechanistic framework for substrate engagement and suggests the direct involvement of the entire Tat complex in substrate translocation."}],"article_type":"original","publisher":"Elsevier","corr_author":"1","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/","month":"06","publication":"Molecular Cell","oa":1,"status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","ddc":["570"],"acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"EM-Fac"},{"_id":"ScienComp"}],"dataavailabilitystatement":"This study did not generate new unique reagents.

Despite its ubiquity, the microscopic origin of CE remains unclear. In this thesis, we investigate CE from three complementary perspectives: developing a quantitative method to measure charge at the nanoscale, exploring the dynamic behavior of charge on insulating surfaces, and uncovering the role of mechanical history in forming a triboelectric series.\r\n\r\nIn the first part, we establish a rigorous framework for converting qualitative Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) voltage maps into quantitative charge density distributions. Using finite element method (FEM) simulations, we determine the point-spread function of the KPFM tip–sample geometry and demonstrate that the true surface charge can be reconstructed by numerical deconvolution. This procedure enables the recovery of both the magnitude and sign of charge density with high fidelity, resolving nanoscale features that are otherwise obscured. Applying the method to contact-charged SiO$_2$ surfaces, we show that existing analytical approximations, such as parallel plate or spherical models, can miscalculate charge magnitude by orders of magnitude. Our hybrid FEM/KPFM approach therefore provides a fast and general method to convert qualitative KPFM signals into quantitative charge data, enabling nanoscale charge mapping under realistic experimental conditions.\r\n\r\nIn the second part, we study the temporal stability of CE-induced charges and identify the key material factors that determine whether KPFM can capture meaningful charge patterns. Through time-resolved experiments combining a custom-built transfer system with both microscopic and macroscopic measurements, we demonstrate that only the best insulators, such as SiO$_2$, preserve CE charge long enough for stationary imaging. For less conductive polymers, such as PDMS, charge decays within the duration of a single KPFM scan due to bulk conduction. Using a simple capacitor-based model, we reproduce the observed decay dynamics and confirm that the transferred charge decays characteristic to the sample's bulk conductivity. Further, we always observe homogeneous charge transfer.\r\n\r\nIn the third part, we address the question: can we form a triboelectric series with identical materials? Using controlled repetitive contact experiments, we show that nominally identical materials can progressively order themselves into a triboelectric series, where surfaces with more contact history charge negatively relative to fresher ones. By constructing a minimal model based on this ``contact bias'', we replicate the evolution from random to ordered charging observed in experiments. Supporting surface analyses, including atomic force microscopy, reveal that repeated contact induces nanoscale morphological changes, suggesting a mechanism tightly coupled to mechanical strain. These results highlight the crucial role of surface history and nanoscale mechanics in dictating charge transfer, motivating further exploration of mechanisms such as mechanochemical bond cleavage and flexoelectric polarization.","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"Institute of Science and Technology Austria","supervisor":[{"id":"3A1FFC16-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Scott R","full_name":"Waitukaitis, Scott R","last_name":"Waitukaitis","orcid":"0000-0002-2299-3176"}],"doi_confirm":"1","related_material":{"record":[{"id":"20481","relation":"part_of_dissertation","status":"public"},{"status":"public","relation":"part_of_dissertation","id":"12109"},{"relation":"part_of_dissertation","status":"public","id":"19278"},{"id":"17373","relation":"part_of_dissertation","status":"public"}]},"doi":"10.15479/AT-ISTA-22684","author":[{"full_name":"Pertl, Felix","orcid":"0000-0003-0463-5794","last_name":"Pertl","id":"6313aec0-15b2-11ec-abd3-ed67d16139af","first_name":"Felix"}],"file":[{"file_name":"2026_Pertl_Felix_Thesis.zip","creator":"fpertl","date_updated":"2026-08-12T13:04:21Z","date_created":"2026-08-12T13:04:21Z","checksum":"0a4f5a941c40b921447e72291d72bc6f","file_id":"22690","content_type":"application/x-zip-compressed","file_size":31192621,"relation":"source_file","access_level":"closed"},{"date_created":"2026-08-12T13:04:21Z","date_updated":"2026-08-12T13:04:21Z","creator":"fpertl","file_name":"2026_Pertl_Felix_Thesis.pdf","file_id":"22691","file_size":27882509,"content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","checksum":"ae60dcdb363222138886b2857643d4e3"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","alternative_title":["ISTA Thesis"],"publication_status":"published"},{"article_processing_charge":"No","OA_type":"closed access","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","citation":{"ista":"Springstein BL, Javoor M, Megrian D, Hajdu R, Hanke DM, Zens B, Weiss GL, Schur FK, Loose M. 2026.

The plasmid-encoded ParMRC system forms actin-like filaments that segregate low–copy number plasmids. In multicellular cyanobacteria such as Anabaena sp., we found that a chromosomally encoded ParMR system has evolved into a cytoskeletal system named CorMR with a function in cell shape control rather than DNA segregation. Live-cell imaging, in vitro reconstitution, and cryo–electron microscopy revealed that CorM formed dynamically unstable, antiparallel double-stranded filaments that were recruited to the membrane by CorR through an amphipathic helix conserved in multicellular cyanobacteria. CorMR filaments were regulated by MinC, which excluded them from the poles and division plane. Comparative genomics indicated that the repurposing of ParMR and Min systems coevolved with cyanobacterial multicellularity, highlighting the evolutionary plasticity of cytoskeletal systems in bacteria."}],"ec_funded":1,"external_id":{"pmid":["41990175"]},"related_material":{"record":[{"status":"public","relation":"dissertation_contains","id":"22744"}]},"pmid":1,"author":[{"id":"b4eb62ef-ac72-11ed-9503-ed3b4d66c083","first_name":"Benjamin L","full_name":"Springstein, Benjamin L","orcid":"0000-0002-3461-5391","last_name":"Springstein"},{"last_name":"Javoor","orcid":"0000-0003-2311-2112","full_name":"Javoor, Manjunath","first_name":"Manjunath","id":"305ab18b-dc7d-11ea-9b2f-b58195228ea2"},{"full_name":"Megrian, Daniela","last_name":"Megrian","first_name":"Daniela"},{"id":"ffab949d-133f-11ed-8f02-94de21ace503","first_name":"Roman","full_name":"Hajdu, Roman","last_name":"Hajdu"},{"first_name":"Dustin M.","full_name":"Hanke, Dustin M.","last_name":"Hanke"},{"full_name":"Zens, Bettina","orcid":"0000-0002-9561-1239","last_name":"Zens","id":"45FD126C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Bettina"},{"first_name":"Gregor L.","last_name":"Weiss","full_name":"Weiss, Gregor L."},{"full_name":"Schur, Florian Km","last_name":"Schur","orcid":"0000-0003-4790-8078","id":"48AD8942-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Florian Km"},{"id":"462D4284-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Martin","full_name":"Loose, Martin","last_name":"Loose","orcid":"0000-0001-7309-9724"}],"doi":"10.1126/science.aea6343","oa_version":"None","article_number":"eaea6343","publication_status":"published","issue":"6795","intvolume":"       392"},{"acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the ERC StG grant ActinID (PRA01221F1049A) awarded to Florian\r\nSchur, the ERC-SyG grant Pushing from within (P01071793) awarded to Michael Sixt, and by ISTA.\r\nI would like to thank the Scientific Service Units at ISTA for their essential support throughout\r\nthis work.

Nonetheless, the mechanisms by which additives influence the formation and characteristics of the inorganic solid–electrolyte interphase (SEI) are not yet fully elucidated. Herein, we investigate how Zn(CF3COO)2 additives influence solvation structure and elucidate the mechanism by which these additives promote the dual reduction of anions. Through cryo-transmission electron microscopy analysis, we identified the SEI as a highly amorphous ZnS/ZnF2 phase. This amorphous hybrid SEI demonstrates exceptional stability, mechanical robustness, and high Zn2+ conductivity, effectively mitigating parasitic reactions and enhancing Zn plating/stripping reversibility. Even under elevated current densities, the Zn anode exhibits ultra-stable longevity and ultra-high reversibility. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the intrinsic mechanisms governing solvation structure modulation that lead to the formation of amorphous hybrid SEI, underscoring their efficacy in enhancing the performance and durability of AZIBs.","lang":"eng"}],"acknowledgement":"The authors acknowledge financial support from the Joint Fund of Henan Province Science and Technology R&D Program (235200810097) and the Generalitat de Catalunya (2021SGR01581).

This platform combines a coplanar-gated field-effect transistor (FET) architecture with grating-coupled surface plasmon resonance (SPR), yielding an integrated disposable sensor chip prepared by nanoimprint and maskless photolithography techniques. The sensor chip design is suitable for scalable production and relies on reduced graphene oxide (rGO), serving as the FET’s semiconductor material for the electronic readout, and a metallic gate electrode surface that is corrugated with a multi-diffractive structure for optical probing with resonantly excited surface plasmons. Together with its integration in a compact instrumentation this results in a form factor optimized solution for dual-mode investigations without compromising the optical or electronic sensor performance. A poly-L-lysine (PLL) – based thin linker layer was deployed at the sensor surface to covalently attach azide-conjugated biomolecules by using incorporated “clickable” dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) moieties. Interestingly, the dual-mode measurements allow elucidating the role of the globular nature of the PLL chains when increasing the density of DBCO attached to their backbone, leading to PLL folding and internalization of DBCO moieties, and thus reducing the coupling yield for the used DNA oligomers. We envision that this platform can be employed to studying a range of other biointerface architectures and biomolecular interaction phenomena, which are inherently tied to mass and charge density variations."}],"publisher":"IEEE","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"_id":"19037","OA_place":"publisher","page":"10521-10529","date_created":"2025-02-17T09:22:26Z","scopus_import":"1","volume":25,"title":"Dual electronic and optical monitoring of biointerfaces by a grating-structured coplanar-gated field-effect transistor","citation":{"mla":"Hasler, Roger, et al. “Dual Electronic and Optical Monitoring of Biointerfaces by a Grating-Structured Coplanar-Gated Field-Effect Transistor.” <i>IEEE Sensors Journal</i>, vol. 25, no. 7, IEEE, 2025, pp. 10521–29, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1109/jsen.2025.3533113\">10.1109/jsen.2025.3533113</a>.","ista":"Hasler R, Livio PA, Bozdogan A, Fossati S, Hageneder S, Montes-García V, Movilli J, Moazzenzade T, Loohuis L, Reiner-Rozman C, Tamayo A, Fiedler C, Ibáñez M, Kleber C, Huskens J, Dostalek J, Samorì P, Knoll W. 2025.

We address these challenges by using an extrusion-based 3D printing technique to fabricate high-performance thermoelectric materials. Our ink formulations ensure the integrity of the 3D-printed structure and effective particle bonding during sintering, achieving record-high figure of merit (zT) values of 1.42 for p-type bismuth antimony telluride [(Bi,Sb)2Te3] and 1.3 for n-type silver selenide (Ag2Se) materials at room temperature. The resulting TEC demonstrates a cooling temperature gradient of 50°C in air. Moreover, this scalable and cost-effective method circumvents energy-intensive and time-consuming steps, such as ingot preparation and subsequently machining processes, offering a transformative solution for thermoelectric device production and heralding a new era of efficient and sustainable thermoelectric technologies.","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"AAAS","isi":1,"corr_author":"1","status":"public","month":"02","publication":"Science","quality_controlled":"1","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"EM-Fac"},{"_id":"LifeSc"},{"_id":"M-Shop"},{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1095-9203"]},"type":"journal_article","year":"2025","day":"20","date_updated":"2026-04-28T13:43:53Z","department":[{"_id":"MaIb"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_published":"2025-02-20T00:00:00Z","user_id":"ba8df636-2132-11f1-aed0-ed93e2281fdd","OA_type":"closed access","article_processing_charge":"No","volume":387,"project":[{"name":"HighTE: The Werner Siemens Laboratory for the High Throughput Discovery of Semiconductors for Waste Heat Recovery","_id":"9B8F7476-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A"}],"citation":{"chicago":"Xu, Shengduo, Sharona Horta, Abayomi Q Lawal, Krishnendu Maji, Magali Lorion, and Maria Ibáñez. “Interfacial Bonding Enhances Thermoelectric Cooling in 3D-Printed Materials.” <i>Science</i>.

However, its practical application is hindered by significant volumetric fluctuations during lithiation/delithiation, alongside a metastable nature, which induces mechanical instability and irreversible lithium consumption, ultimately impairing long-term capacity retention in full-battery cell configurations. In this study, we present a phase-engineering approach designed to improve the structural stability of SiOx anodes for LIB applications. By incorporating lithium fluoride, amorphous SiOx undergoes partial transformation into a quartz-like phase, which enhances mechanical integrity and mitigates irreversible lithium loss. This modified anode demonstrates significantly improved stability and prolonged cycle lifespan. Through a combination of multiscale simulations and in situ characterizations, we elucidate the stabilization mechanisms conferred by the quartz phase, providing critical insights into the role of SiOx’s crystal structure in influencing degradation pathways. This work introduces an accessible and efficient method for controlling the crystallinity of SiOx, offering a practical solution to enhance the durability of high-energy-density LIBs.","lang":"eng"}],"acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Foundation (2023A1515110828) and the Generalitat de Catalunya (2021SGR01581).

In this study, we employ transverse thermoelectric measurements to investigate the ferroelectric distortion in the topological crystalline insulator (TCI) Pb0.60Sn0.40Te, a compound derived from PbTe and SnTe, known for their exceptional thermoelectric performance and distinct ferroelectric properties. By leveraging Nernst measurements, we provide direct evidence of ferroelectric distortion in this TCI, corroborated by Shubnikov–de Haas quantum oscillations that confirm the presence of two topologically nontrivial Fermi pockets. Density functional theory calculations show that these pockets originate from the L and T points in the Brillouin zone of the distorted structure within the TCI phase. Raman spectroscopy further identifies a structural phase transition below 50 K, consistent with the quantum oscillation observations. This observation is further substantiated by temperature-dependent synchrotron X-ray pair distribution function analysis and transmission electron microscopy, which confirm the local off-centering of cations at low temperature. These findings underscore the potential of transverse thermoelectric measurements in unveiling ferroelectric distortions and their role in modulating topological quantum states, opening new directions for research into the synergy between ferroelectricity and topological phases."}],"article_processing_charge":"No","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","OA_type":"closed access","citation":{"short":"P.
