Rational Tuning of Hygroscopic Oscillation of Stacked Nanoflake Assemblies for Continuous Ambient Energy Harvesting

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Stacked nanoflake assembly (SNA) membranes can oscillate autonomously, offering opportunities for soft actuation and energy harvesting. This work uncovers the physical mechanism behind the sustained oscillation of SNA membranes in gradient humidity and identifies three governing dimensionless parameters, enabling rational design for optimizing SNA ...

Differential Sedimentation and Cryo‐TEM Mapping Resolve Structural Heterogeneity in Conjugated Polymer Nanowires for Programmable Stretchable Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Density‐driven differential sedimentation fractionates solution‐assembled P3HT nanowires into crystalline and disordered constituents. High‐resolution cryo‐TEM directly visualizes the molecular chain packing within individual nanowires in real space, and recombining the fractions programs the mobility–stretchability trade‐off without chemical ...

Interface‐Mediated Catalysis for Improved Hydrogen Storage in Reactive Hydride Composites

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Catalyst–hydride interfaces are engineered in Co@C‐ and Ni@C‐modified 2LiH + MgB2 reactive hydride composites to accelerate hydrogen uptake and release. Multiscale scattering, in‐situ synchrotron radiation powder x‐ray diffraction and density functional theory calculations reveal the structural and electronic origin of the catalytic enhancement ...

Nonplanar Bouligand Architectures for Enhanced Mechanical Performance in Cementitious Composites

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the impact region of the Mantis shrimp dactyl club, nonplanar additive manufacturing translates sinusoidal Bouligand architectures into cementitious composites. Printing‐induced anisotropy and architected interfaces promote distributed damage and arrest crack propagation, enhancing strength and energy absorption.

Efficient in‐Plane Exciton Transport in a Discontinuous Layered Lead‐Bromide Perovskite

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new class of two‐dimensional lead‐bromide perovskite based on monovalent 4‐aminomethylbenzoic acid cations is presented, featuring a discontinuous inorganic layer. Despite the discontinuous lattice, transient photoluminescence microscopy demonstrates efficient though strongly anisotropic in‐plane exciton transport.

Charge Storage and Dark Photocatalysis in Multivariate Ti‐Based Metal‐Organic Frameworks

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The mixed‐linker series of the titanium‐based metal–organic framework COK‐47 enables systematic tuning of photoresponsiveness and (dark) photocatalytic activity, deepening our understanding of structure‐property‐function relationships. Tailored metal‐to‐ligand charge transfer between the secondary building units (metal‐oxo layers and organic linkers ...

Highly Sensitive Broadband Photodetectors Based on Donor–Acceptor 2D Conjugated Coordination Polymers

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Donor–acceptor molecular design and chemical vapor deposition growth enable the two‐dimensional nickel‐tetraaminobenzoquinone films with strong broadband absorption and efficient charge separation. The resulting photodetectors exhibit a structured broadband response with a high responsivity of ∼3.1 A W−1 and a response time of ∼170 µs, which surpasses ...
