Unlock the Walnut: How a Pectin‐Rich Suture Tissue and Moisture‐Driven Crack Formation Induce Shell Splitting and Facilitate Seed Germination

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Walnut seeds are enclosed in a remarkably strong shell made of sclerenchyma, separated by a pectin‐rich suture tissue. Different cell shapes and chemical composition of this tissue point to an opening mechanism, which is triggered by cyclic humidity changes.

Ce3+‐Activated Lithium Rare‐Earth Oxonitridolithosilicates: A New Class of LED Phosphors with Similarities to Garnets

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Garnet‐like luminescence upon Ce3+‐activation is found in the first six representatives Li9RESi4N4O8 (RE = Y, La, Gd, Dy, Yb, Lu) of the substance class of lithium rare‐earth oxonitridolithosilicates, which also show a novel structure type. High‐temperature solid‐state synthesis yielded crystalline samples for single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction‐based ...

Engineering Highly Cellularized Living Materials via Mechanical Agitation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanical agitation strategy is developed to engineer highly cellularized living materials, achieving cell densities of up to 1 billion cells per milliliter. By precisely tuning properties such as stiffness and toughness in blood clots, the approach is validated in both in vitro and in vivo studies.
