Rutile Without Substrate Limitations: Top‐Interface‐Driven Crystallization of TiO2
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A RuO2 upper layer acts as a removable crystallization template that triggers rutile TiO2 formation from the top interface, independent of the underlying substrate. This top‐interface‐driven crystallization mechanism enables rutile growth even on amorphous ZrO2/TiN, offering a substrate‐agnostic route to high‐k dielectrics compatible with DRAM process ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

Impact of Oxygen Plasma Pre‐Treatment on Thermal Oxidation and Reliability of SiO2 on 4H‐SiC
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.We investigate how oxygen plasma pre‐treatment affects the thermal oxidation of silicon carbide. While plasma modification increases growth rates by 84%, it reduces dielectric breakdown strength by 18%. Our findings reveal that although plasma improves the interface state density, it introduces structural damage, highlighting a critical trade‐off ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Plasma‐sequence‐engineered ALD (PSE‐ALD), based on sequential NH3 and N2 plasma pulses, enables ultrathin, dense SiNx films. ToF‐MS analysis confirms ligand removal via HCl evolution, while increased film density indicates network densification. The resulting SiNx coating provides robust protection of graphite under H2 plasma exposure.
