Chinese researchers has recently elucidated the characteristics of human eyelashes. Their study reveals that eyelashes consist of a hydrophobic, curved, flexible fiber array, featuring surface micro-ratchets and a macro-curvature approximating the Brachistochrone curve. This structure enables eyelashes to rapidly and directionally expel incoming liquid, thereby preserving clear vision.

Researchers proposed a one-step nanoimprinting crystallization method to fabricate a high crystalline perovskite single-crystal thin film with high-throughput four-directional grating arrays. Based on this film, a single-shot on-chip pol-PD without any additional polarization optics is conducted.

Researchers found ethanol-water clusters determine the critical concentration of alcoholic beverages.

TIPC researchers achieved the direct synthesis of high-purity benzaldehyde chemicals from the selective electrooxidation of benzyl alcohol.

Researchers developed an innovative heat-driven thermoacoustic refrigerator (HDTR) with a novel bypass configuration to improves the efficiency.

Chinese researchers developed biphasic gel iontronics with cascaded heterointerface-gated properties to achieve versatile electronic-ionic signal transmission recently.

Inspired by the colonial sandcastles, researchers have developed the natural-based low-carbon building materials which is promising to be applied in the next-generation low-carbon constructions.

Chinese researchers have demonstrated the dynamics of liquid entrainment on solid surfaces with millimeter structures.

In a new study published in Matter, scientist has made a breakthrough in creating biotissue-like rhythmic agglomerates via two inanimate liquid materials, water and liquid metals assembled from the ground up.

Researchers developed a biocompatible hydrogel photoresist to achieve higher precision.

Researchers from TIPC developed carbazole-based anion ionic water-soluble TPI by host-guest chemical interaction.

In a new study, it is reported a superaerophilic/superaerophobic cooperative electrode that can promote bubble removal and dissolved hydrogen diffusion to achieve efficient HER.
