Passive Metasurface Tweezers for Multi‐Scale Orbital Transport and Trapping on Elastic Plates

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Passive labyrinthine phase encoding converts single‐channel excitation into localized flexural‐wave vortices with programmable orbital angular momentum. The resulting vortex fields enable cross‐scale particle manipulation, including orbital transport, central confinement, and rotational actuation.

A New Ordered Transformation‐Induced Plasticity Enables Exceptional Strength and Ductility in a B2 Medium‐Entropy Alloy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel B2‐ordered Ti‐Zr‐V‐Al medium‐entropy intermetallic is developed through controlled metastability engineering, which activates an ordered TRIP effect via a new B2→D019‐α2 transformation with a distinctive {0001}α2//{110}B2, <11‐20>α2//<100>B2 orientation relationship. This alloy achieves an elongation of ∼7%, a strength of ∼1.1 GPa, and superior

Architected Load Paths Enable Stiffening and Motion Programming in Soft Pneumatic Actuators

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A single MARS template introduces an architected reinforcement strategy for programmable soft pneumatic actuators through internal structural organization and selective beam removal. This monolithic architecture enables deformation reconfiguration from continuous bending to joint‐like articulation and torsional motion, allowing one compliant platform ...

Anode‐Free Sodium Metal Batteries: From Materials Design to System‐Level Integration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Anode‐free sodium metal batteries hold no sodium reserve, so every inefficiency becomes permanent loss. Resolving the inventory into reversible, dead, and chemically bound fractions exposes what Coulombic efficiency hides. Practical 500‐cycle operation requires above 99.95%, a threshold few systems meet under lean electrolyte and high areal capacity ...

In Situ CO2‐Induced Hydrogels for Enhancing Carbon Sequestration in Saline Aquifers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel integrated method that combines in situ CO2‐induced phase‐transition hydrogels formed by a C22‐tailed tertiary amine dispersion with tailored deep eutectic solvents to increase CO2 sequestration in saline aquifers. ABSTRACT Carbon sequestration in saline aquifers underpins global net‑zero emission goals, yet existing CO2 storage capacity ...

Degradation Mechanism of Phosphate‐Based Li‐NASICON Conductors in Alkaline Environment

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
The presence of water in the cathode of a Li‐air battery shifts reactions to produce LiOH, creating a corrosive, alkaline environment. This study investigates the alkaline stability of the common Li‐NASICON solid‐state conductor chemistries through a systematic experimental study combined with computational modeling to understand the degradation ...

Decoupling Quasi‐Solid‐State Sulfur Conversion Mechanisms in Weakly Solvating and Locally High Concentration Electrolytes

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Weakly solvating CME–TTE and localized high‐concentration G2–TTE electrolytes redirect lithium–sulfur chemistry toward quasi‐solid‐state conversion through distinct coordination environments. Molecular dynamics and multimodal electrochemical and spectroscopic measurements show that G2–TTE couples multidentate solvent coordination, anion participation ...
