A Termite‐Inspired Alternative to Cement

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A termite‐inspired composite of clay, cellulose, and lignin forms a dense fibrous network with concrete‐like strength (32 MPa) and superior elasticity, processed at ambient temperature. Abstract Clay combined with organic materials is used by termites as a strong and durable construction material for their mounds with minimal environmental impact. Here,

Reconfigurable Metamirrors Based on Compliant Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Providing the basis for numerous practical applications, the reconfigurability of metadevices is of great importance. Through the integration of controlled mechanical deformation with chiral meta‐atoms, a compliant mechanism based metamirror is demonstrated for active control over the polarization of electromagnetic waves.

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

Ultrafast Adhesion/Friction Bidirectionally Switchable Control by Vibration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioinspired gradient smooth architectures enable vibration‐switchable adhesion/friction with 62.02 kPa adhesion strength, 131.57 kPa shear strength, tilt angles ≥ 3°, roughness ≥ Ra 0.8 µm, 400 Hz antivibration robustness, and dual‐mode control. The synergy of geometry optimization and vibration modulation tuning bridges multidomain adaptability and ...

Design of Sodium Chalcohalide Solid Electrolytes with Mixed Anions for All‐Solid‐State Sodium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel family of sodium hafnium chalcohalide SSEs is designed with dual‐anion frameworks. Compared to the halide SSEs, the mixed anion chalcohalide framework exhibits a more compact morphology, improved thermal and mechanical properties, and enhanced electrochemical performance with different cathode materials.
