Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

Prediction of risk of fracture in the tibia due to altered bone mineral density distribution resulting from disuse : a finite element study [PDF]

, 2014
The disuse-related bone loss that results from immobilisation following injury shares characteristics with osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and the aged, with decreases in bone mineral density (BMD) leading to weakening of the bone and increased risk

Unexpected Asymmetric Mn‐Sb Site Mixing and Reentrant Spin‐Glass State of MnSb2Te4

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MnSb2Te4 is an intrinsic magnetic topological insulator. Its properties are extraordinarily sensitive to tiny defects, making structural studies essential for understanding how magnetism and topology work together. This work shows that Mn can be unevenly distributed within the crystal and how that disorder is linked to a newly reported spin‐glass state

Neuromorphic Devices for Extreme Environments: State‐Variable Reliability and Stabilization Strategies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Neuromorphic devices for extreme environments are interpreted through the physical states that store and process information. Radiation, temperature extremes, and vacuum can perturb vacancies, filaments, trapped charges, polarization, interfaces, and readout signals.

Deformation‐Tolerant Functional Elastomer Overlayers for Haze‐Assisted Light Extraction and Color Conversion in Stretchable Mechanoluminescent Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Functional elastomer overlayers are integrated onto stretchable ZnS:Cu‐PDMS mechanoluminescent films to regulate light after emission without modifying the emissive composite. NLC‐PU provides haze‐assisted light extraction to enhance green mechanoluminescence, while DCM‐NLC‐PU combines green‐to‐yellow‐orange color conversion with enhanced outward light

Ultra‐Thin Tow‐Based Discontinuous Composites—Material Overview and Aspirations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tow‐based discontinuous composites made from ultra‐thin tapes offer outstanding in‐plane mechanical properties. This material, inspired by Nacre, has high volume fraction of tapes exceeding 90 % and allows for quasi‐isotropic material plates less than 100 micrometer in thickness.

Self‐Adaptive Gradient Interphase Enables Durable Solid‐State Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a machine learning‐guided interfacial design that forms a self‐adaptive graded interphase on lithium metal anode. A B105M40 composite interlayer evolves into lithiophilic, porous, and fast‐ion‐conducting phases, enabling intimate contact, dendrite suppression, and uniform lithium deposition.
