Material Coupling in Hybrid Neuromorphic Devices: From Fundamentals to System‐Level Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid neuromorphic devices utilize heterointerfaces between emerging semiconductors, where charge transfer and trapping, ion or defect modulation, and photogating are translated into synaptic functions. This paper discusses coupling strategies that tailor interfacial electronic and ionic properties in organic semiconductors, metal oxides, two ...

Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Probing molecular orientation of donors and acceptors in all-polymer blend films by near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy

JPhys Materials
The molecular orientation is crucial for the efficiency of organic solar cells. A face-on orientation, in which the $\pi - \pi $ stacking direction is oriented perpendicular to the substrate, is typically preferred because it enhances vertical charge ...

One‐Component Carbon Dot Photoinitiator Enables High‐Fidelity Digital Light Processing 3D Printing With Improved Mechanical Resistance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Furfural carbon dots functionalized with acylphosphine oxide photosensitive groups (CD‐PO PI) demonstrate potential as one‐component photoinitiators for digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. Compared to conventional diphenyl(2,4,6‐trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (TPO), CD‐PO PI offers improved printing resolution, resin toughness, and biological

Thermally Robust Room‐Temperature Interlayer Excitons in a Hybrid van der Waals Heterostructure

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We report an optically active interlayer exciton in a hybrid van der Waals (PEA)2PbBr4/MoS2 heterostructure that remains thermally stable up to 400 K. The emission exhibits polarization anisotropy consistent with an out‐of‐plane optical transition‐dipole component and shows lifetime extension indicative of electron–hole separation.
