Printed SWCNT‐Based p–n Junction Thin‐Film Near‐Infrared Photoresistors Enabled by a Sustainable Furan‐Derived π‐Conjugated Polymer

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A sustainable polymer–carbon nanotube bilayer enables efficient near‐infrared photodetection in a simple lateral planar p–n junction thin‐film architecture. Thermal side‐chain cleavage enhances interfacial coupling, shifts the dominant photoresponse from 800 to 1000 nm, and substantially improves device performance.

Regioselective π‐Extension of Helical PAHs: Tuning Energy Gaps and Excited‐State Dynamics Directed by Clar's Sextet Migration

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Central and terminal ring fusions of per‐peri‐perbenzo[7]helicene (PB[7]H) yield novel helical polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (HPAHs). The migration of Clar's aromatic sextets governs the inner‐rim stiffness. This topology‐directed strategy bridges the discrete optical gaps of homologous series. Transition moment density (TMD) analysis visualizes the

Enhancement of Circular Dichroism in Chiral Dielectric Metasurfaces by Ion Beam Irradiation

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ion beam irradiation enables post fabrication tuning of dissipative losses in chiral dielectric metasurfaces composed of C4 symmetric silicon nanostructures. By tailoring the absorption toward critical coupling condition, circular dichroism is enhanced from 0.70 to 0.85, demonstrating a versatile route for maximizing optical chirality and polarization ...

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...
