Multimaterial Approach to Improve the Mechanical Properties of a Novel Modified Auxetic Reentrant Honeycomb Structure

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A multimaterial approach is introduced to improve upon auxetic structures by combining two different polymers into the same reentrant honeycomb structure via additive manufacturing. The deformation behavior as well as the resulting Poisson's ratio are thereby improved significantly.

Hole Transfer Dynamics in Thin Films of Mixed‐Dimensional Quasi‐2D Perovskites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Charge transfer dynamics in quasi‐2D perovskite (PEA2MAn−1PbnI3n+1), grown with a distinct dimensionality gradient are investigated. Selective excitation of the n = 4 phase reveals efficient hole transfer to n = 2 and n = 3 within tens of picoseconds, while n = 1 acts as a hole‐blocking layer. These findings highlight the importance of minimizing n = 1

FeNb2O6 as a High‐Performance Anode for Sodium‐Ion Batteries Enabled by Structural Amorphization Coupled with NbO6 Local Ordering

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
FeNb2O6 is applied for the first time as a high‐performance anode material for sodium‐ion batteries. The presence of iron disrupts the long‐range order by local disorder of the FeO6 octahedra during initial sodiation. Simultaneously, the formation of short‐range ordered zigzag‐chain structures within the NbO6 planes establishes a robust intercalation ...
