Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

Managing Charge Transport and Exciton Generation for Highly Efficient, Bright, and Stable Near‐Infrared Organic Radical Light‐Emitting Diodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
High‐performing near‐infrared (NIR) organic light‐emitting diodes are demonstrated using an efficient and stable 800 nm‐emissive organic radical and a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) host. TADF‐assisted exciton generation combined with improved charge transport enables high external quantum efficiency (>8%), high radiance (>70,000 mW sr−

Multidimensional‐Encoded High‐Fidelity Spectrometers With a Floating‐Base Bipolar Junction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A floating‐base bipolar junction photodetector enables multidimensional spectral encoding through synergistic gate‐ and drain‐bias modulation of interfacial barrier matching. The resulting complementary spectral responses form a diverse, weakly correlated response matrix, enabling robust and high‐fidelity spectral reconstruction even at sub‐nanoampere ...

GeS as an Emerging OTS Material: Atomic Structure and Modeling of ON/OFF Switching

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The structural puzzle of glassy GeS, an advanced memory‐selector material, has finally been disentangled, revealing a patchwork of mixed tetrahedral and trigonal species. Under a high electric field, over‐ and under‐coordinated Ge and S defects, together with three‐membered rings, form an interconnected network associated with localized and extended ...

Configuration‐Encoded Cell Alignment by Light‐Gated Silicon Photovoltaic Microcell Arrays

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Light‐gated silicon photovoltaic microcells convert pulsed illumination into localized electrical cues. Arranging otherwise similar microcells into four‐lobed, six‐lobed, or circular patterns directs fibroblasts into corresponding local arrangements without wired stimulation.

Critical Coupling in Semi‐Trasparent Fano Resonators for Photothermal Converters

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An ultrathin metal–insulator multilayer architecture is engineered to exploit Fano‐resonant critical coupling, completely suppressing optical reflectance while achieving a balanced 50:50 trade‐off between absorbance and transmittance. Upon laser excitation at resonance, the metamaterial generates intense localized heat (ΔT≈550∘C$\Delta T {\approx }550^\

A Miniaturized Autonomous Thermomagnetic Generator

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Micro, autonomous and high power thermomagnetic generator operating between a heat dissipator and a processor. ABSTRACT Thermomagnetic generators (TMG) are promising devices for converting low‐grade waste heat into electricity. Self‐actuation using permanent magnets is the key to autonomy.

Dirac Semimetallicity Enabled by Stripe Antiferromagnetism in Monolayer FeSe

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In monolayer FeSe, stripe antiferromagnetic order selectively breaks mirror symmetry, enabling odd inter‐orbital hybridization between opposite‐parity Fe 3d states. This mechanism stabilizes symmetry‐protected Dirac nodes with nontrivial Wilson‐loop topology and edge states, accompanied by a strong orbital diamagnetic susceptibility as an experimental ...

Emergence of a Hexagonal Fe2S2 Single Layer Without a Bulk Counterpart via Phase Transformation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Upon annealing, single‐layer Mackinawite iron sulfide transforms into a previously unknown hexagonal Fe2S2${\rm Fe}_2{\rm S}_2$ phase with β$\beta$‐CuI structure. STM, LEED, and first‐principles calculations identify the structure and show that electronic correlations and magnetic order are important for its stability.
