Generating Unconventional Spin‐Orbit Torques With Patterned Phase Gradients in Tungsten Thin Films
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A key aim in spintronics is to achieve current‐induced magnetization switching via spin‐orbit torques without external magnetic fields. For this, the focus of recent work has been on introducing controlled lateral gradients across ferromagnet/heavy‐metal devices, giving variations in thickness, composition, or interface quality.

Autonomous Folding of Soft Matter From Living Polymers
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Origami structures are endowed with “living” polymer creases that grow, remodel, and stiffen in response to nutrient solutions. This post‐fabrication growth enables autonomous folding, iterative regrowth, and mechanical tuning involving origami assemblies, such as cranes, Miura‐ori tessellations, rigid and non‐rigid square‐twist patterns, establishing ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Mixed‐cation lead mixed‐halide perovskites suffer from structural instabilities linked to nanoscale heterogeneity. To probe this non‐destructively, a low‐dose, concurrent 4D‐STEM and EDX methodology has been developed. Examining a (FA0.83Cs0.17)Pb(I0.8Br0.2)3 film revealed a complex mosaic of coexisting crystal structures. Crucially, local deficiencies

Chloride Ions: Essential Agents for Achieving Spontaneous Delamination of MXene
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work first identifies chloride ions as essential agents for spontaneous MXene delamination. Without Cl−, etched Ti3C2Tx remains multilayered; with Cl−, interlayer modification enables Li+ intercalation and osmotic swelling. The SPEED process couples HF‐assisted Al extraction, Cl−‐mediated interlayer expansion, and Li+‐driven swelling to produce ...
