Abstract Solar-driven water evaporation represents an environmentally benign method of purification/desalination. However, the efficiency is limited by increased salt concentration and accumulation. Here, we propose energy reutilizing strategy based on a bio-mimetic 3D structure. The spontaneously formed film, with thickness inhomogeneity temperature gradient, fully utilizes input through Marangoni effect results in localized crystallization. rate 2.63 kg m −2 h −1 , >96% under one sun...

Herein, we report a de novo chemical design of supramolecular polymer materials (SPMs-1–3) by condensation polymerization, consisting (i) soft polymeric chains (polytetramethylene glycol and tetraethylene glycol) (ii) strong reversible quadruple H-bonding cross-linkers (from 0 to 30 mol %). The former contributes the formation domain SPMs, latter furnishes SPMs with desirable mechanical properties, thereby producing soft, stretchable, yet tough elastomers. resulting SPM-2 was observed be...

Two-photon-pumped lasers have been regarded as a promising strategy to achieve frequency up-conversion for situations where the condition of phase matching required by conventional approaches cannot be fulfilled. However, their practical applications hindered lack materials holding both efficient two-photon absorption and ease achieving population inversion. Here, we show that this challenge can tackled employing colloidal nanocrystals perovskite semiconductors. We observe highly (with cross...

Stretchable conductors are the basic units of advanced flexible electronic devices, such as skin-like sensors, stretchable batteries and soft actuators. Current fabrication strategies mainly focused on stretchability conductor with less emphasis huge mismatch conductive material polymeric substrate, which results in stability issues during long-term use. Thermal-radiation-assisted metal encapsulation is reported to construct an interlocking layer between polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) gold by...

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography (13.5 nm) is the newest technology that allows high-throughput fabrication of electronic circuitry in sub-20 nm scale. It commonly assumed low-energy electrons (LEEs) generated resist materials by EUV photons are mostly responsible for solubility switch leads to nanopattern formation. Yet, reliable quantitative information on this electron-induced process scarce. In work, we combine LEE microscopy (LEEM), electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), and...
