Boosting Polysulfide Conversion on Fe‐Doped Nickel Diselenide Toward Robust Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports an advanced functional material based on Fe‐doped nickel diselenides toward robust lithium–sulfur batteries, demonstrating that Fe‐rich cores and surface doping enhance the density of states at the Fermi level and introduce unpaired electrons for the improvement of the LiPS adsorption and catalytic conversion. Abstract Sulfur offers a

Electro‐Active Metasurfaces Controlling Exceptional Topological Phase Through Low‐Voltage Operation on Conductive Polymer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This research investigates an electro‐active chiral optical response (EACOR)‐driven dual‐channel metasurfaces with fast electrical switching rates of 52 ms, and a low operating voltage of 0.5 V. The combination of polyaniline (PANI) thin film and the exceptional topological (ET) phase of chiral gold (Au) meta‐atoms modulate holographic images through ...

Ultrafast Room‐Temperature Nanofabrication via Ozone‐Based Gas‐Phase Metal‐Assisted Chemical Etching for High‐Performance Silicon Photodetectors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ozone‐based gas‐phase metal‐assisted chemical etching enables unprecedented room‐temperature fabrication of high‐quality silicon nanowires. The superior oxidation potential of O3 drives rapid vertical etching (1 µm min−1) while maintaining exceptional structural integrity. The pristine nanowire surfaces enable high‐performance core‐shell photodetectors

Tunable Thermoshrinkable Hydrogels for 4D Fabrication of Cell‐Seeded Channels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A thermoresponsive polymer with methacrylate groups for photo‐cross‐linking, based on polyethylene glycol, N‐isopropylacrylamide, and 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate is synthetized to yield hydrogels that shrink upon temperature increase. The new polymer enables the fabrication of cell‐laden perfusable channels with diameters below 200 µm by combining ...

Supercompliant Lattice Boosts n‐type AgSbTe2 Thermoelectrics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The supercompliant lattice design enables the first realization of n‐type electrical transport in AgSbTe2 by overcoming intrinsic electron‐killer defects and exceeding the doping limits imposed by the conventional Hume–Rothery rule. Accordingly, the best performance n‐type Ag0.8Na0.3Sb0.6Bi0.4Te2 sample achieves a low κ of 0.27 W·m−1·K−1 that ...

Transient Stiffness Patterning in Hydrogels Driven by Dissipative Mechanochemical Coupling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Force‐induced disulfide bond rupture in a polymer‐based hydrogel, coupled with chemical or electrochemical reoxidation, leads to the transient modulation of the hydrogel's stiffness properties. High spatiotemporal control is achieved by this dissipative process, enabling the development of out‐of‐equilibrium stiffness patterns and transient, dose ...

Optical Control of Ferroelectric Imprint in BiFeO3

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Above‐bandgap irradiation at room temperature enables on‐demand optical control of defect‐driven built‐in electric fields in BiFeO₃ thin films, fabricated via scalable, chemical spray pyrolysis. These fields, otherwise “frozen‐in,” can cause severe device degradation, including non‐switchable polarization, dead layers near interfaces, and polarization ...

Deciphering a New Electrolyte Formulation for Intelligent Modulation of Thermal Runaway to Improve the Safety of Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Diels‐Alder clicks chemistry addresses thermal runaway in lithium‐ion batteries. A thermoresponsive electrolyte with lithium salt in vinylene carbonate (VC) and 2,5‐dimethylfuran (DMFu) operates at room temperature but undergoes Diels‐Alder reactions at high temperatures, enabling a two‐step safety mechanism: a warning phase at ≈100 °C and complete ...

Transmembrane Activation of Catalysis and Protein Refolding in Synthetic Cells by Enzymes and Nanozymes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Synthetic cells are engineered herein to respond to an external chemical messenger by the activation of intracellular catalysis. The chemical messenger molecules are catalytically generated by an extracellular enzyme or a mineral surface, whereas the intracellular catalysis emerges via direct enzyme activation or via protein refolding.
