Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Maximizing atomic utilization of Pt is crucial for efficient electrocatalysis. We constructed a tensile‐strained PdPt1 single‐atom alloy (SAA) skin by implanting atomically dispersed Pt onto the surface of intermetallic Pd5Bi3 core‐ultrathin Pd shell octahedrons, fully exposing active Pt atoms to boost ethanol oxidation electrocatalysis.

Loading Mode Dependence of Twin‐Twin Boundary Formation in a Textured Magnesium Alloy
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.The structures of twin‐twin boundaries formed by interactions between twin variants sharing the same or different zone axes in a deformed magnesium alloy are demonstrated. Lattice distortion around complicated interfaces promotes grain refinement in the subsequent thermomechanical process, enhancing the mechanical performance of magnesium alloys ...

Autonomous Locomotion of Tensegrity Structure on Low‐Temperature Surfaces
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A low‐temperature responsive tensegrity structure (LRTS) is constructed by integrating low‐responsive temperature liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) cables, nonresponsive cables, and stiff rods. The low phase transition temperature of LCE is achieved by introducing a new liquid crystal mesogen.
