Electrically Tunable Piezotronic Transistor by Coupling Interface Polar Symmetry and Strain Gradient

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A macroscale tip‐induced strain gradient generates bulk piezo‐charges in GaN, enabling bias‐controlled shielding and selective Schottky barrier modulation. This strain‐gradient piezotronic transistor exhibits electrically switchable high‐ and low‐sensitivity states, providing ultrahigh strain sensitivity and wide tunability for adaptive mechanical ...

Absorption of Broadband Low‐Frequency Sound Beyond the Thermodynamics Limit: An Acoustic Resonator With Magnetic Bearing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a magnetic‐bearing acoustic resonator that overcomes the thermodynamics limit of sound absorption. By introducing tunable negative stiffness, it achieves broadband low‐frequency absorption within a compact cavity, far exceeding the performance achievable by classic mass‐tuned designs.

A Phosphorylation‐Induced Micellization Switch in the Low‐Complexity Domain of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phosphorylation of TAR DNA‐binding protein's 43 kDa (TDP‐43) low‐complexity domain by casein kinase 1 delta (CK1δ) acts as a molecular switch, redirecting its self‐assembly from macroscopic phase separation toward finite‐sized, spherical block‐copolymer micelles of ∼30 nm.

In Situ Alkali Metal Exfoliation‐Coupled Dilute CO2 Electrolysis to Synthesize Interlayer‐Expanded Graphite for High‐Rate Lithium Storage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Converting CO2 into advanced carbon materials capable of meeting the rapid lithium storage demands of lithium‐ion batteries creates a mutually beneficial scenario for both energy and environmental sectors. Here, we propose a stepwise CO2 electrolysis approach to transform dilute CO2 into interlayer‐expanded graphite using molten salt electrolyzers ...
