Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A metastable high‐vacancy concentration layered P3‐type Na0.5Cr0.5Ti0.5O2 negative electrode material has been synthesized from its K analogues P3‐type K0.5Cr0.5Ti0.5O2 using a facile room temperature ion‐exchange method. The P3‐type Na0.5Cr0.5Ti0.5O2 demonstrates a gravimetric capacity of 125 mA h g−1 and high‐rate performance (80% charging in 3 min ...

A general framework for quantifying the effects of land-use history on ecosystem dynamics
, 2019 Land-use legacies are important for explaining present-day ecological patterns and processes. However, an overarching approach to quantify land-use history effects on ecosystem properties is lacking, mainly due to the scarcity of high-quality, complete ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The seed pod valves of Australian Banksia attenuata plants are not simply bi‐layers which bend when dry. These experiments and models reveal complex mechanics, which allow seed release only after several steps of seed pod opening. Stiffness gradients prevent delamination of the valves during loading, and a shape‐memory function protects the seeds ...

Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

Switching of Magnetic Order via Non‐Magnetic Al Addition in FeCoNiMnAlx Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Non‐magnetic Al addition provides a sensitive handle to switch the magnetic order in high entropy FeCoNiMnAlx thin films via fcc to bcc phase transformation. Films with fcc structure exhibit a large exchange bias, while bcc films exhibit enhanced ferromagnetic properties, reflecting the magnetic ground state of Mn which switches from antiferromagnetic ...
