Dirac Semimetallicity Enabled by Stripe Antiferromagnetism in Monolayer FeSe

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In monolayer FeSe, stripe antiferromagnetic order selectively breaks mirror symmetry, enabling odd inter‐orbital hybridization between opposite‐parity Fe 3d states. This mechanism stabilizes symmetry‐protected Dirac nodes with nontrivial Wilson‐loop topology and edge states, accompanied by a strong orbital diamagnetic susceptibility as an experimental ...

Proximity‐Tuned Magnetic and Transport Anomalies in All‐Epitaxial Fe5−xGeTe2/WSe2 Van der Waals Heterostructures

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
All‐epitaxial and scalable ferromagnetic/non‐magnetic Fe5−xGeTe2/WSe2 van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures exhibiting room‐temperature magnetism and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) are realized. The system displays proximity‐tuned magnetic anisotropy, thickness‐dependent unconventional Hall effects, and temperature‐dependent sign reversal of ...

Bistable Isochoric Chiral Metamaterials with Reprogrammable Multiaxial Responses

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An isochoric bistable rotational unit cell enables in situ modification of internal contact conditions post‐fabrication, without altering the global envelope dimensions of the surrounding architecture. By selectively switching between open and closed states, the tessellated chiral metamaterial can reprogram its volumetric response, including bulk ...

Controlling Structure and Stability in Ultrathin Ti3C2Tx MXene Multilayers for Hydrogen Gas Barrier Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An ultrathin nanocomposite MXene‐based multilayer effectively blocks hydrogen permeation by presenting a tortuous, layered structure. When the MXene is layered with reduced graphene oxide modified with a polycation, the resulting nanocomposite retains its hydrogen gas barrier properties at temperatures as high as 400°C (permeability of 7.13 ± 0.09 × 10−

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.

Orbital Engineering through Strain‐Induced Spin–Orbit–Lattice Coupling in Sr2FeReO6 Double Perovskites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Epitaxial strain drives oxygen‐octahedral reconfiguration in Sr2FeReO6 double‐perovskite thin films, inducing orbital‐selective reconstruction of Re 5d states through modified Fe–O–Re hybridization. This coupled lattice–orbital response enables magnetic easy‐axis reversal and a transition from metallic‐like to semiconducting‐like transport.
