Covalently‐Bonded Diaphite Nanoplatelet with Engineered Electronic Properties of Diamond

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel approach to engineering the electronic properties of diamond is reported on the diaphite nanoplatelet consisting of (11¯${{\bar{1}}}$1) planes of diamond nanoplatelet covalently bonded with graphite (0001) planes. The strong sp3/sp2‐hybridized interfacial covalent bonding induces the electron transfer from diamond to graphite, resulting in a ...

Imbalanced Surface Charge Induced Phase Segregation in Mixed Halide Perovskites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The key factor determining the phase segregation in mixed halide perovskites (MHP) is the intrinsic imbalanced surface charges in the crystal lattice. MHP films with excellent crystallinity and surface morphology can suffer severe phase segregation.

Facet‐Junction Induced Strong Metal Support Interaction for Enhanced Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel facet‐junction strategy is proposed to enhance the strong metal‐support interaction (SMSI) between the loaded Ru atoms and the Co3O4 support. The synthesized structure with the incorporation of Ru doping and the (100)/(111) crystal plane junction has a particular influence on the catalyst's hydrogen evolution reaction (HER ...

The Cribellate Nanofibrils of the Southern House Spider: Extremely Thin Natural Silks with Outstanding Extensibility

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nanofibrils are considered the universal building blocks of spider silks. In this work, the thinnest natural spider silk nanofibrils are imaged, measured, and mechanically tested for the first time. Gaining insight into the mechanics of silk at the nanoscale is important.

Biomimetic Spider Silk by Crosslinking and Functionalization with Multiarm Polyethylene Glycol

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioconjugation of recombinant mini‐spidroins with multiarm polyethylene glycol (PEG) is employed to produce artificial spider silk, which can be crosslinked and chemically functionalized while maintaining a biomimetic spinning approach. The best fibers exhibit enhanced tensile strength and/or extensibility, both contributing to an increased toughness ...

Metastable Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation and Aging Lead to Strong Processing Path Dependence in Mini‐Spidroin Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates have central functions in cells and are also observed during the assembly of biological materials such as silks. For a mini‐spidroin protein, the presence of long‐lived metastable or dynamically arrested intermediate states leads to complex pathways and difficulties in identifying equilibrium states.

Efficient and Scalable Radiative Cooling for Photovoltaics Using Solution‐Processable and Solar‐Transparent Mesoporous Nanoparticles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Graded refractive index (GRI) structures are prepared from the layer‐by‐layer spray coating of the mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles, showing high solar transparency and thermal emissivity. Under outdoor conditions, after 50 days, the GRI‐coated photovoltaics show on average 6.65 ± 1.48 °C lower than that of the non‐coated references, maintaining 80.9 ± 8 ...

Removing Homocoupling Defects in Alkoxy/Alkyl‐PBTTT Enhances Polymer:Fullerene Co‐Crystal Formation and Stability

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
PBTTT‐OR‐R, a C14‐alkoxy/alkyl‐PBTTT polymer derivative, is of substantial interest for optoelectronics due to its specific fullerene intercalation behavior and enhanced charge‐transfer absorption. Comparing this polymer with (S) and without (O) homocoupling defects reveals that PBTTT‐OR‐R(O) forms stable co‐crystals with PC61BM, while PBTTT‐OR‐R(S ...
