Elasticity‐Driven Periodic Polarization Patterns in a Chiral Ferroelectric Nematic Fluid
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Chiral polar ferroelectric nematic fluids exhibit spontaneous formation of stripe, square, and hexagonal polarization textures under confinement. Controlled by thickness and anchoring, these patterns produce spatially modulated nonlinear optical responses.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Strongly adhered cells align with concentric circular ridges and exhibit predominantly tangential motion, whereas weakly adhered cells fail to follow topographical guidance and display enhanced radial inward motion. ABSTRACT Living cells establish long‐range orientational order through collective alignment, giving rise to topological defects whose ...

Structural and Dynamic Properties of Lipid‐Coated Gold Nanoparticles
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations reveal how lipid chemistry governs the behavior of coatings on the surface of a gold nanoparticle. Variations in headgroup charge and acyl‐chain saturation produce distinct monolayer‐like lipid organization, ranging from compact, ordered coatings to extended, dynamic shells. These findings establish a foundation
