Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Electrical resistivity change upon annealing is introduced as a rapid descriptor for identifying high glass‐forming ability in metallic glasses. High‐throughput combinatorial thin‐film libraries reveal that compositions exhibiting small resistivity changes correspond to sluggish crystallization behavior and known bulk metallic glass regions, enabling ...

Angstrom‐Scale Confined Ion Sieve and Accelerator for Efficient Aqueous Zinc Batteries
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An angstrom‐scale confined ion accelerator strategy is proposed for ultra‐stable aqueous Zn anodes. Selective and precise transport of hydrated Zn(H2O)62+, Zn2+ cations, H2O molecules, and SO42− anions is achieved by in‐plane atomic Ti vacancies and angstrom‐scale interlayer free spacing within the Ti0.87O2 interfacial layer, leading to homogeneous Zn ...

Turning Humidity Into Function: Heterojunction Interfaces for Dual‐Mode Removal of Nonpolar Vapors
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.A wire‐grown MIL–88B(Fe)@Fe3(PO4)2 heterojunction converts ambient humidity into a functional mediator for nonpolar VOC purification. Water forms a hydration layer that enhances cyclohexane uptake while simultaneously promoting •OH generation, resulting in synergistic adsorption–photocatalysis under humid conditions.

Band Alignment and Composition of the Buried TiO2/GaInP Interface
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Buried TiO2$\text{TiO}_2$/GaInP interfaces formed by mild plasma‐enhanced ALD are shown to be largely insensitive to the initial GaInP surface condition. Angle‐dependent photoelectron spectroscopy reveals similar interfacial chemistry and band alignment for phosphorus‐rich and naturally oxidized surfaces, demonstrating a robust pathway for reproducible
