An Ultrapotent, Ultraeconomical, Antifreeze Polypeptide
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Simple and inexpensive polypeptides composed of random copolymers of alanine and glutamic acid are effective antifreezes for applications in foods and biomedicine. The polypeptides, inspired by natural extremophile proteins, inhibit the growth of large ice crystals and prevent damage to sensitive biologics.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A ferroelectric‐gated phototransistor (FGPT) enables linear and multilevel modulation of photoconductance through partial polarization switching and photogating effects. The device achieves photonic non‐volatility over a 153 dB dynamic range and performs in‐sensor processing under unstructured illumination, demonstrating enhanced face recognition ...

Direct Laser Writing of Polymer Nanocomposites for Tunable Structural Color
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Herein, direct laser writing is used to polymerize self‐assembled nanocomposite materials. Using fabrication parameters, the interparticle spacing is finely tuned beyond the thermodynamically stable state. This is exploited to generate wide gamut structural color in water.

Colossal Cryogenic Electro‐Optic Response Through Metastability in Strained BaTiO3 Thin Films
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Utilizing the thermodynamic theory of optical properties, a colossal cryogenic electro‐optic response in BaTiO3 thin films is designed and demonstrated by stabilizing a low symmetry metastable monoclinic phase via epitaxial strain tuning with an electro‐optic response reaching ≈2516 pm V−1 at 5 K. This approach represents a new paradigm for engineering

Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

Microstructural Evolution Dynamics in Rapid Joule Heating Densification of High‐Nickel Cathodes
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Introduction of high‐temperature rapid Joule heating combined with two‐step sintering drives full densification while suppressing grain coarsening in high‐Ni cathodes. By activating lattice and grain boundary diffusion over surface diffusion, this approach achieves dense microstructures without excessive grain growth, offering insights into the ...
