Photonic Time Crystals and Time‐Varying Electromagnetic Metamatter: A New Direction for Ultrafast Tunable Photonic and Microwave Materials and Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are systems in which electromagnetic parameters are modulated periodically in time, producing momentum bandgaps via temporal scattering rather than spatial Bragg processes. This review examines the theoretical frameworks, modeling, and computational tools for time‐varying media, and summarizes experimental demonstrations ...

Extreme‐Thickness Meta‐Membrane for Controlling Terahertz Vectorial Beams

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We propose ultra‐thin (λ/30) transmissive terahertz metasurfaces combining near‐field resonant and detour phases in coupled‐slit meta‐atoms, enabling continuous phase and polarization control beyond conventional designs. Based on leaky‐mode theory, scalar and vectorial terahertz Bessel beams at 0.39 THz are experimentally demonstrated, with ...

Sub‐Terahertz Memristor Switches Using MoS2 by Liquid–Liquid Interface Assembly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces application‐ready sub‐terahertz memristor switches fabricated from electrochemically exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets assembled at a liquid–liquid interface. The devices exhibit robust unipolar resistive switching, low insertion loss, and high isolation across 10–110 GHz.

Strain‐Modulated Reconfigurable Optical Information Processing in Flexible Graphene/PDMS

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Graphene/PDMS—a stable, mechanically robust, and highly tunable flexible composite, exhibits excellent strain‐tunability. The spatial self‐phase modulation (SSPM) effect can be reversibly and continuously modulated by strain. A strain‐gated optical switch can be constructed, thereby realizing reconfigurable optical logic gates and reversible switching ...

Chemically Programmable Underwater Sound‐Absorbing Metamaterial via MXene Self‐Assembly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MXene self‐assembly creates a chemically programmable underwater metamaterial with quasi‐periodic layers and a chemical‐physical multi‐level constraint system. A crosslinker as a ‘chemical scissor’ precisely edits microscopic interactions, exciting deep‐subwavelength strong local resonances that induce near‐zero/negative effective bulk modulus (Keff ...
