Synergistic Effects in Multistate Black Electro‐Thermochromic Smart Windows for Energy‐Efficient Modulation of Solar Heating

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hybrid electro‐thermochromic smart windows are developed for dynamic climate control by integrating a redox‐matched black electrochromic gel with a paraffin‐based thermochromic film. This synergistic combination enables multimodal solar modulation, where photothermal heating from the electrochromic layer triggers thermochromic activation at lower ...

Ferroionic Electrostatic Landscapes Enabling Wireless Energy Harvesting, Storage, and Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
By integrating experiments and electrostatic field simulations, we show that long‐range wireless coupling in Li‐based ferroionics devices emerges from the cooperative interaction between ionic migration and electronic polarization. This coupling sustains self‐polarized electrostatic fields across centimeter‐scale air gaps without external bias or ...
