Asymmetry of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition in BaTiO3

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Phase transitions are typically assumed to behave identically in forward and reverse. This work shows that in the ferroelectric material barium titanate this is not true: heating drives an abrupt, first‐order jump, while cooling gives a smooth, continuous change.

High‐κ Perovskite‐Like Ternary Niobium Oxide Dielectrics for 2D Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
High‐κ dielectrics are vital for scaled electronics. Here, a family of 2D high‐κ perovskite‐like ternary niobium oxides is synthesized via a molten salt‐assisted method. Their integration into FETs and logic gates reveals superior switching characteristics, providing a fresh material platform and new insights for the advancement of high‐performance 2D ...

Photonic Crystal Enhanced Microscopy on a 2D Photonic Crystal Surface

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This work demonstrates the design, fabrication, and the first‐time test of a 2D photonic crystal surface for photonic resonator absorption microscopy. The designed surface uniformly enhances electromagnetic near fields, achieving > 100% improved detecting uniformity for surface‐captured AuNPs from a blocking biosensor assay aimed for detecting SARS‐CoV‐

Wide‐Flow Aerosol Jet Printing Enables High‐Throughput, Ultra‐Low Aspect Ratio Patterning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Wide‐flow aerosol jet printing (WF‐AJP) employs an anisotropic nozzle design to generate planar aerosol jets, enabling millimeter‐scale deposition of highly uniform, ultra‐low aspect ratio (<1:6000) films with substantially reduced anisotropy in functional performance.
