Electroactive Liquid Crystal Elastomers as Soft Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 24, 23 March 2026.
Electroactive liquid crystal elastomers (eLCEs) can be actuated via electromechanical, electrochemical, or electrothermal effects. a) Electromechanical effects include Maxwell stress, electrostriction, and the electroclinic effect. b) Electrochemical effects arise from electrode redox reactions.

Delivery of Multifunctional Microspheres via Intravesical Instillation for Bladder Carcinoma: Therapeutic Potential and Mechanistic Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, 20 March 2026.
PCTM microspheres were successfully synthesized using microfluidic and click chemistry techniques.In Vivo and in vitro experiments have shown that PCTM microspheres have obvious targeting, adhesion, membrane penetration and anti‐tumor properties for bladder tumors.The antitumor mechanism of PCTM microspheres is to indirectly induce S‐stage blockage of ...

Breaking the 2‐nm Barrier in Hard Disk Drives Using Monolayer Amorphous Carbon Overcoats

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 15, 12 March 2026.
The rapid growth of AI has increased demand for large‐scale data storage, making HDDs indispensable in data centers. Increasing areal storage density is crucial, but limited by the traditional carbon overcoats (COC). Monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC) offers a superior alternative.

Guest‐Induced Activation of Multicolor Photoluminescence in Naphthalene Bisimide Liquid Crystals

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 17, 20 March 2026.
Supramolecular host–guest design in naphthalene bisimide liquid crystals activates charge‐transfer emission and enables continuous tuning of color (511–685 nm) and lifetime, spanning prompt fluorescence, TADF, and RTP. Electron‐rich guests and Pt(II) complexes modulate emissive states, while co‐assembled NBI complexes create an energy‐transfer cascade ...

Redefining Separator Design and Water Activity for High‐Energy Zinc Batteries Using Covalent Organic Framework

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 17, 20 March 2026.
Device‐level zinc batteries are energy‐limited by the mass/volume of inactive components, while lean‐electrolyte operation triggers interfacial water depletion and unstable kinetics. Here we elucidate lean‐failure mechanisms and develop a COF@PAN functional separator that regulates hydrogen‐bonding networks to manage water activity and accelerate ...
