Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.Van der Waals ferroelectric NbOX2 thin films exhibit phonon‐resonance enhanced electro‐optic responses, 332 pm/V at 3.1 THz (NbOI2) and 192 pm/V at 3.7 THz (NbOBr2), the highest among vdW materials, and show 4% non‐resonant SHG modulation together with resonant phonon‐enhancement under a 150 kV/cm THz pump.

Low‐Hysteresis Cellulose‐Based Hydrogels for Strain Detecting
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Low‐hysteresis hydrogel with high cellulose content is prepared. The modified cellulose is prepared through a sequential periodate oxidation and borohydride reduction process. The hydrogel can be used as a strain sensor with a gauge factor of 1.1 in the 0%–300% sensing range.

Strain‐Induced Density Fluctuations in Glassy Polymers
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Strain deformation induces the density fluctuations in glassy polymers, resulting in shear‐thinning behavior. ABSTRACT Deformation of glassy polymers induces plastic flow as a result of mechanical instability, ultimately leading to cavitation and fracture of the liquid. Thus, understanding the origin of such mechanical instability is crucial.

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.This work presents a practical approach for formulating 4D printable inks that incorporates substantial fractions of low molecular weight mesogens. By blending low molecular weight diacrylate or monoacrylate constituents with a high molecular weight main‐chain macromer, the resulting mixture proves suitable for direct ink writing, enabling mechanical ...

Spectroscopic Ellipsometry of Conducting Anisotropic Pedot thin Films
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.We measure the optical response of poly[3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene] thin films through the combination of polarized photon spectroscopies (variable‐angle ellipsometry, UV–mid‐IR reflectance and transmittance) and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering, revealing anisotropic optical response and conductivity and enabling structural modelling of chain and π‐system ...

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.We reported a stress‐guided photo‐programming strategy that enables cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs) to achieve synchronous 3D shape morphing and structural color evolution from a single 2D film. Abstract Flexible materials with dynamic structural colors have attracted considerable interest for multilevel information interaction, showing ...

Acid Resistant and Highly Silver Selective Membranes Based on Charged Nanoporous 2D‐Materials
Small, EarlyView.In this work, new membranes based on charged & nanoporous nanosheets with unprecedented selectivity to silver versus a wide range of other metallic ions are reported. Furthermore, a demonstrated and lead specific intralamellar lead pathway is demonstrated. A potential applicability for ubiquitous silver in WEEE is validated.
