Generation and Enhancement of Persistent Nanoscale Magnetization in All‐Dielectric Metasurfaces by Optically Injected and Localized Free Carriers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Infrared metasurface‐guided waves (IR‐MGW) scattered by a time interface (TI) induced by rapid, localized free‐carrier generation can be efficiently rectified to generate strong, persistent magnetic fields. We develop a rigorous, theoretical model to study a time‐varying, dispersive medium and uncover the redistribution of the initial energy of the IR ...

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.

Dimple‐Encoded Reprogrammable Origami

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Local snap‐through of bistable dimples turns flat elastic sheets into reprogrammable origami structures. Interaction‐guided dimple arrays act as angle‐programmable hinge bands, enabling one sheet to morph into distinct polygonal and three‐dimensional configurations while retaining stable shapes for deployable and protective functions.

Symmetry‐Imposed Selection Rules for Excitations of Nontrivial Plasmonic Topologies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A unified group‐theory selection rule governs the excitation of vectorial nearfield topologies across three plasmonic spin states. Derived from first principles, it predicts spin–orbit vortex splitting and multidimensional nested vortices, confirmed by phase‐resolved in situ measurements.

Non‐Hermitian Stealthy Hyperuniformity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A framework for non‐Hermitian extensions of hyperuniformity and stealthiness is proposed, generalizing PT‐symmetric gain‐loss crystals to correlated disorder in the weak‐scattering limit. By engineering real‐imaginary correlations of the material potential, this framework enables directional scattering phases inaccessible in Hermitian materials ...

An Innervated Human Skin Equivalent that Electrically Encodes Mechanical and Thermal Stimuli

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innervated human skin equivalent is integrated with high‐density microelectrode arrays to reveal how engineered free nerve ending–like structures translate touch and temperature into electrical codes. Mechanical indentation and thermal stimulation engage the engineered somatosensory circuitry and evoke distinct firing and waveform signatures ...

Revealing the Underlying Mechanisms in Performance Enhancement of Shellular Lattice Electrodes During Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis Process

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Micro laser powder bed fusion enables architected nickel shellular lattice gas diffusion layers for anion exchange membrane water electrolysis. Among regular open cell geometries, the Gyroid lattice promotes bubble release, convective reactant replenishment and continuous electron transport, delivering low overpotentials, enhanced charge transfer and ...

Scan‐Path‐ and Initial‐State‐Dependent Superdomain Switching in (111)‐Oriented PZT

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Scan trajectory and initial superdomain topology govern polarization switching in (111)‐oriented PZT. Automated AFM writing, pulsing experiments, and interferometric 3D‐PFM show that raster scans reproducibly stabilize ordered Type‐I stripe superdomains with constrained variant selection, whereas spiral trajectories generate frustrated mixed‐variant ...
