Hybrid Amyloid–Boron Nitride Aerogels for Lightweight Sound Insulation
Amyloid fibrils template the mild formation of boron nitride–rich hybrid aerogels with hierarchical porosity, enhanced BN‐like ordering, and fibril‐reinforced mechanics. These ultralight materials combine thermal stability with strong sound absorption and transmission loss, offering a sustainable bio‐assisted route toward lightweight acoustic shields ...

Photo‐ and Thermally‐Induced Huge Layer Decoupling in Twisted Bilayer WSe2
A newly developed automated dark‐field tomography visualizes twist‐angle‐dependent structural relaxation and quantifies 3D structures in twisted bilayer WSe2. This approach reveals the evolution of local stacking configurations, thermally induced sub‐ångström interlayer decoupling, and light‐driven interlayer expansion on picosecond timescales ...

Ultralow‐Dispersion Silicon THz Photonic Crystal Interconnects for Multichannel Datalinks
An all‐silicon terahertz photonic crystal waveguide interconnect enables 452 Gbps aggregate data transfer through seven complex‐modulated channels. By revealing the impact of ultralow dispersion on link performance and achieving a record interconnect figure of merit, the work advances centimeter‐scale THz on‐chip communication for future data‐centre ...

Far‐Infrared Hyperbolic Phonon–Polaritons in Zirconium Disulfide
An unpatterned ZrS2${\rm ZrS}_2$ flake, coupled to far‐field infrared light by metal nanoribbons, reveals hyperbolic phonon polaritons with multiple higher‐order branches and effective refractive indices up to 223. This resonator‐assisted approach establishes ZrS2${\rm ZrS}_2$ as a compact van der Waals platform for deeply subwavelength far‐infrared ...

α‐MoO3 is established as a high‐index, low‐loss anisotropic platform bridging mid‐infrared polaritonics and ultraviolet‐visible nanophotonics. Spectroscopic ellipsometry and calculations reveal refractive indices exceeding 3.9, with the largest in‐plane birefringence among transparent layered crystals at 425–500 nm, enabling zero‐order UV waveplates ...
