Micropatterned Biphasic Printed Electrodes for High‐Fidelity on‐Skin Bioelectronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Micropatterned biphasic printed electrodes achieve unprecedented skin conformity and low impedance by combining liquid‐metal droplets with microstructured 3D lattices. This scalable approach enables high‐fidelity detection of ECG, EMG, and EEG signals, including alpha rhythms from the forehead, with long‐term comfort and stability.

MoHTR1, a Nuclear Effector of the Rice Blast Fungus, Regulates Alternative Splicing of Rice Immunity Genes

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
Plant pathogens deploy nuclear effectors to manipulate the host immune response and reprogram cellular processes. Alternative splicing, a key RNA processing mechanism, plays a pivotal role in determining the fate of immune response-associated genes. Some

Prospects of Electric Field Control in Perpendicular Magnetic Tunnel Junctions and Emerging 2D Spintronics for Ultralow Energy Memory and Logic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electric control of magnetic tunnel junctions offers a path to drastically reduce the energy requirements of the device. Electric field control of magnetization can be realized in a multitude of ways. These mechanisms can be integrated into existing spintronic devices to further reduce the operational energy.

Ladder‐Type Benzene‐Perylene Dyes with Efficient Laser Properties in the Near‐IR by Detracting/Activating Low/High Frequency Vibronic Modes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The NNR‐n series of oligomeric nanographenes delivers exceptional emission performance. This work shows that this performance is originated by their ladder‐type structure, which effectively deactivates low‐frequency vibronic modes. This deactivation neglects the main pathway for non‐emissive deactivation, even in the near‐infrared region. The potential

Conditioning the biocontrol agent Trissolcus japonicus on rearing hosts and plant-herbivore microcosms affects its foraging behaviour

Biological Control
Pre-adult conditioning on rearing hosts and adult conditioning on plant-herbivore cues can induce phenotypic plasticity in parasitoids. This is particularly important in pre-emptive biocontrol, when parasitoids may be mass reared on alternative hosts ...

Low‐Symmetry Weyl Semimetals: A Path to Ideal Topological States

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a theoretical framework for realizing ideal Weyl semimetals, where Weyl nodes are well‐isolated at the Fermi level. The approach is exemplified in the low‐symmetry material Cu2SnSe3, which exhibits tunable topological phases, current‐induced orbital magnetization, and a strong circular photogalvanic effect, making it a promising ...
