Directional Flow of Confined Polaritons in CrSBr

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
CrSBr, a layered magnetic semiconductor, naturally channels self‐hybridized excitonpolaritons into highly directional flow. Its intrinsic optical anisotropy, high refractive index, and strong lightmatter coupling enable long‐range guided modes along the a‐axis, with propagation lengths set by their excitonphoton admixture.

Comprehensive Understanding of Accelerated Kinetics Driven by Anion–Diluent Dynamics Enabling Wide Temp Operation in Dual‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The transient interactions between TFSI− anions and a diluent within an anion‐dictated electrolyte are revealed, which can reduce interfacial reorganization energy, thereby accelerating ion kinetics and markedly facilitating sustainable anion storage in high‐voltage graphite cathodes for dual‐ion batteries at fast charge and wide temperature range ...

Polarize the Solvent to Regulate the Intermediate Phase and Dynamic Crystallization of Perovskite Films

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A solvent engineering strategy using polar polymers is introduced to regulate perovskite crystallization dynamics in solar cells. Strongly polarized fluorinated groups stabilize the intermediate phase and control solvent exfoliation, leading to high‐quality films with suppressed defects.
