Buckling‐Resistant and Trace‐Stacked (BRATS) Design Enables Aid‐Free Implantation of Flexible Multielectrode Array with Minimized Inflammatory Tissue Response

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Buckling‐resistant and trace‐stacked (BRATS) intracortical microelectrode arrays (MEAs) eliminate the need for insertion aid and complex surgical setup, resulting in minimal inflammatory tissue response, compared to conventional flexible MEAs inserted with aid. Trace stacking effectively doubled the channel count without increasing the MEA shank width,

Hydroxylated Ionic Liquids as Functional Additives for Stable Aqueous Zn Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hydroxyl‐functionalized ionic liquid additive (HO‐EMImTfO) regulates Zn2+ solvation and electrodeposition by forming a stable ion‐diversion dam at the Zn interface. This design mitigates Zn pulverization, suppresses dendrite growth, and reduces side reactions, enabling Zn||Cu and Zn||V2O5 cells to achieve exceptional cycling stability and efficiency.

Side Reaction Pathway Modulation for Hydrogen Evolution‐Free Aqueous Zn‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A ZnO–TeO2–Te ternary composite layer with a unique rice grain‐like morphology is spontaneously formed on the Zn anode via telluric acid additive. This functional interphase effectively suppresses side reactions such as zinc hydroxide sulfate formation, hydrogen evolution, and Zn corrosion, enabling highly reversible and stable Zn metal cycling in ...

Nanoplasmonics Reveal Ionic‐Strength‐Driven Hydration of Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is modulated by ionic‐strength‐dependent hydration shell compression. A predictive model connects shell thickness to non‐radiative damping and spectral shifts over seven orders of magnitude.

Epitaxial Interface‐Driven Photoresponse Enhancement in Monolayer WS2–MoS2 Lateral Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Surface potential distribution image, along with the derived electric field distribution across the interface, reveals that the electric field reaches its peak at the interface. Additionally, the spectral response of the heterointerface exhibits higher and broader features compared to its bare counterparts.

Artificial Compound Eye for Clear Vision in Harsh Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial compound eye (CE) with exceptional imaging and motion tracking capturing the movement of a spider and swinging thread with a wide field of view. Surface modifications ensure clear vision of alphabetic letters in rain and fog. Images captured in fog with CE remains visible 3 times longer than simple eyes (SE).
