Water‐Efficient Smart Drip Irrigation Enabled by a Low‐Power and High‐Efficiency Flexible Electromagnetic Actuator

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Water scarcity poses a critical threat to global food security. A low‐power, flexible electromagnetic actuator is presented for smart drip irrigation systems. The device achieves precise, wide‐range flow modulation (0.05–5.8 mL/min) in response to real‐time plant demands, reducing water consumption compared to conventional flood irrigation.

Magnetically Responsive Piezoelectric Nanocapacitors Enhance Neural Recovery Following Spinal Cord Injury via Targeted Spinal Magnetic Stimulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel “in vivo–in vitro” therapeutic strategy for spinal cord injury by leveraging magnetically responsive piezoelectric nanomaterials. These nanomaterials enable targeted delivery of localized electrical stimulation at the injury site through noninvasive external magnetic actuation, thereby promoting axonal regeneration and ...

Osmotic Tension Asymmetry Drives Electrotactic Migration via PDLIM7‐Polarized Microfilament Coordination in Breast Cancer Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes an electric field‐induced directional migration model using fluorescence tension probes to visualize microfilament forces and intracellular osmotic pressure dynamics in the electrotactic migration of breast cancer cells. This model delineates how electromechanical interactions among membrane potential, ion channels, OP, traction ...

Deformable Eutectic Alloy With Near‐Theoretical Yield Strength via Hierarchical Nanoscale Multiphases and Sessile Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A CoCrFeNiTa0.4 eutectic high‐entropy alloy achieves a near‐theoretical yield strength of 2.6 GPa with 13.6% plasticity. This breakthrough stems from a hierarchical nanostructure (FCC‐Laves lamellae with L12/D022 precipitates), which alleviates the inter‐phase modulus/hardness mismatch through synergistic strengthening and toughening, guiding the ...

Orientation‐Dependent Phase Transformation Pathways Enabling Superior Superelastic and Elastocaloric Performance of NiTi Alloys

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By integrating simulations and experiments, the preferred (001) crystallographic texture promotes reversible martensite formation through variant selection, enhancing both superelastic and elastocaloric performance. This work provides fundamental guidelines for designing high‐efficiency NiTi‐based functional materials. Abstract Developing elastocaloric
