Shapeshifting Liquid Metal Droplets for Soft Fluidic Machines

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presented a liquid metal shape shifting strategy which harnesses Lorentz force, surface tension and fluid instabilities to achieve autonomous fluidic power. By using a liquid metal droplet as a mobile current carrier, this strategy enables the development of low‐voltage, self‐oscillating pumps that outperform existing soft pumps.

Spin and Charge Control of Topological End States in Chiral Graphene Nanoribbons on a 2D Ferromagnet

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Chiral graphene nanoribbons on a ferromagnetic gadolinium‐gold surface alloy display tunable spin and charge states at their termini. Atomic work function variations and exchange fields enabe transitions between singlet, doublet, and triplet configurations.

Water Permeates and Plasticizes Amorphous Carbon Dots: Unraveling the Inner Accessibility of the Nanoparticles by Glass Transition Studies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The water permeability of amorphous carbon dots (CDs) is demonstrated by investigating their plasticization. Novel polyamide‐based and amorphous nanoparticles are synthesized by controlling their inner packing density. Water plasticization is evidenced by the decrease of the CDs glass transition temperature with increasing the hydration degree.

Heptazine‐Assisted Multi‐Resonance TADF Emitters With Fast Reverse Intersystem Crossing for Efficient Solution‐Processed OLEDs

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Heptazine‐assisted MR‐TADF emitters enable narrowband yellow emission with high efficiency at high luminance in solution‐processed OLEDs. In doped films, HAP‐3CzBN achieves a record‐fast kRISC of 1.19 × 106 s−1. The optimized HAP‐3CzBN devices deliver 15.5% EQEmax with negligible roll‐off at 1000 cd m−2, 11.2% at 10,000 cd m−2, and a benchmark 20.3 ...

Ion‐Regulating Membranes with Surface‐Enriched Charge Networks Enabling Stable Zinc‐Manganese Flow Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ion‐regulating membrane is designed with a surface‐concentrated positively‐charged Zn2⁺ crosslinked network for zinc‐manganese flow batteries. The membrane effectively mitigates proton crossover and regulates zinc ion distribution to avoid dendrites, thus significantly improving areal capacity and prolonging the lifespan with a record accumulated ...

A Solid State Zwitterionic Plastic Crystal With High Static Dielectric Constant

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Developing solid high dielectric constant materials has been a research focus in the energy storage field. In this research, we discovered a zwitterion with a plastic crystal phase. Due to the short‐range degree of freedom of the dipole moment for this zwitterion, a relatively high static dielectric constant has been achieved in its solid state ...

Topology and Material Optimization in Ultra‐Soft Magneto‐Active Structures: Making Advantage of Residual Anisotropies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Residual magnetization induces pronounced mechanical anisotropy in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers, shaping deformation and actuation even without external magnetic fields. This study introduces a computational‐experimental framework integrating magneto‐mechanical coupling into topology optimization for designing soft magnetic actuators with ...
