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.

APTES‐Mediated Ti‐Squarate MOF/n‐GaN Nanowire Photoanodes for Efficient Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The APTES linker establishes a permanent interfacial dipole, reducing the work function of n‐GaN from 3.55 to 3.29 eV. This strengthens the built‐in electric field, significantly accelerating hole extraction to drive the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Ultimately, this tailored charge‐separation architecture achieves a remarkable 4.78‐fold enhancement

Ultra‐Thin Tow‐Based Discontinuous Composites—Material Overview and Aspirations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tow‐based discontinuous composites made from ultra‐thin tapes offer outstanding in‐plane mechanical properties. This material, inspired by Nacre, has high volume fraction of tapes exceeding 90 % and allows for quasi‐isotropic material plates less than 100 micrometer in thickness.

Heteroengineering‐Induced Electronic Reconstruction for Ammonium‐Ion Energy Storage

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An integrated electronic reconstruction behavior is induced by local heteroengineering on VO2(B) electrode material surface of NH4+ supercapacitor, rationally modulating the electronic structure, enabling enhanced intrinsic conductivity and extra driving force for NH4+ intercalation reaction.

Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Architected Bio‐Based Iontronic Skin With Dual‐Mode Pressure and Strain Sensing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based acrylates in combination with an ionic liquid create 3D‐printed ionogels with compositionally tuneable mechanics and ionic conductivity. Gyroid architectures amplify low‐pressure sensitivity while preserving robust strain sensing, enabling dual‐mode detection of pressure and deformation.

Highly Efficient and Stable Roll‐to‐Roll Coated Perovskite Solar Cells Enabled by Antisolvent Vapor‐Assisted Crystallization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Antisolvent Vapour‐Assisted Crystallization (AVAC) enables controlled perovskite crystallization through precisely metered antisolvent vapour, eliminating liquid antisolvent waste. Compatible with roll‐to‐roll (R2R) slot‐die coating, AVAC produces uniform, pinhole‐free films with enlarged grains, delivering efficiencies of 18.3% for R2R fabricated ...
