Material‐Induced Nuclear Deformation Controls Chromatin Architecture in Adipose Stem Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tuning cell and cytoskeleton mechanics modulated nuclear shape and heterochromatin organization in ASCs. Distinct cytoskeletal architectures induced nuclear morphologies from oblate to prolate ellipsoids. Large elongated cells with a structured actin cap exhibited high nuclear strain, driving nuclear envelope deformation and heterochromatin ...

Interlayer‐Sliding‐Enabled Multiferroicity and Giant Switchable Anomalous Hall Conductivity in RuO2Zn2F2 Bilayer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Interlayer sliding in the RuO2Zn2F2 bilayer induces ferroelectricity and enables reversible valley polarization switching. The electric dipole and valley‐resolved band edges are intimately coupled, revealing sliding ferroelectricity as a powerful mechanism for electrical control of valley degrees of freedom in 2D materials.

Rigid‐Flexible Coupling Units Enable Robust Large Birefringence

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A rigid–flexible coupling strategy, combining flexible (S3)2− linear units with rigid (VO4)3− tetrahedra, yields Sr4(VO4)2S3—a robust crystal exhibiting large birefringence (Δn = 0.52@550 nm) and remarkable thermal, air, and water stability. ABSTRACT Birefringent crystals are central to polarization control in laser technologies (e.g., wave plates and ...
