Interface‐Induced Stability of Nontrivial Topological Spin Textures: Unveiling Room‐Temperature Hopfions and Skyrmions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The first room‐temperature, zero‐field observation of stable skyrmion–hopfion spin textures in EuS─Bi2Se3─EuS trilayers is reported. Combining Lorentz TEM imaging and micromagnetic modeling, the authors unveil how interfacial Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction and geometric confinement stabilize these multidimensional topological states.

New Perspectives on Semiconducting Conjugated Oligomers for Neuromodulation in Hydra vulgaris

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Semiconducting organic compounds, thiophene‐based, modify the rhythmic electrical activity of the cnidarian Hydra vulgaris acting on specific neuronal circuits. The ETE‐S trimer also forms electronically conducting wires in the living tissues of the animal.

Ni‐Assisted Endotaxial Growth of Au Nanoparticles Within TiO2 Nanowires

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A new synthesis route for embedding Au nanoparticles within TiO2 single‐crystal nanowires during vapor‐phase growth at 1000 °C is reported. Beyond seed composition and oscillating morphology, crystallography and resulting Au‐TiO2 interfaces are identified as a key factor governing the embedding process. This can unlock new possibilities for engineering

Tunable Electrical and Optical Properties in Atomic Layer Deposited TiO2:Pt Thin Films via Dynamic Metallic Nanoparticle Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Atomic layer deposition (ALD)‐grown TiO2:Pt composite thin films prepared via a supercycle approach exhibit dynamic temperature‐dependent resistivity shifts from insulating through semiconducting to metallic‐like behavior. Platinum nanoparticles form controllably within an anatase TiO2 matrix, enabling simultaneous electrical conductivity enhancement ...
