Anisotropic Phonon Dynamics and Directional Transport in Actinide Van der Waals Semiconductor Uranium Triselenide

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
USe3 is introduced as an actinide van der Waals semiconductor that mirrors the quasi‐one‐dimensional physics of transition‐metal trichalcogenides. Polarization‐resolved Raman spectroscopy on exfoliated flakes maps strong in‐plane phonon anisotropy and strain‐tunable mode shifts.

Rare‐Earth–Functionalized Carbon Dot Hydrogels as Mechanically Robust Antibacterial Wound Dressings

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The schematic depicts a dynamically cross‐linked PVA hydrogel network in which reversible borate ester bonds and hydrogen‐bonding interactions integrate lanthanum‐doped carbon dots (La‐CDs) and dipotassium glycyrrhizinate (DPG) to form a mechanically robust, multifunctional matrix.

Deep Eutectic Solvent‐Enhanced PEDOT: PSS/NR Foam Piezoresistive Sensor for High‐Sensitivity Wearable Devices and Sleep Monitoring Applications

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A high‐performance piezoresistive foam sensor is developed by integrating natural rubber, PEDOT: PSS, and a deep eutectic solvent (DES). DES effectively detaches insulating PSS from PEDOT, dramatically amplifying electrical conductivity and sensitivity.

Controlling Polystyrene Particle Distribution in Colloidal Lithography For Correlated‐Disorder Structures

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Colloidal lithography is a low‐cost, simple and scalable technique to fabricate correlated‐disorder nanostructures for light‐trapping in solar cells. This work investigates the control of polystyrene particle distribution in colloidal lithography, highlighting the importance of particle surface functionalization as well as the ability to tune the ...
