Electrostatic Superlattices Beyond 1:1 Stoichiometry
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Polymer‐mediated charge regulation drives two hierarchical routes to higher‐stoichiometry nanoparticle superlattices. Tuning the polymer's molecular weight promotes progressive interstitial filling, transforming ZnS into the fully occupied CaF2${\rm CaF}_2$ lattice. Exchanging polymer assignment between large and small nanoparticles instead breaks CsCl

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Chilling Sensitivity of Episcia Cultivars and Hybrid Progenies under Low-temperature Stress
HortScienceWe evaluated genotypic variation and inheritance of chilling tolerance in Episcia and examined the influence of prechilling temperature on chilling tolerance. Six cultivars and four hybrid progenies were subjected to chilling stress. Genetic variation in
