High Thermoelectric Performance in Low‐Cost Cu8SiSxSe6‐x Argyrodite

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study discovers the great potential of Cu8SiSxSe6‐x argyrodites as new, low‐cost, Te‐free thermoelectric materials. The proposed defect scheme suppresses the phase transition, enhances the weighted mobility and optimizes the grain boundary contacts.

Tuning D‐Band Center of Vanadium in Constructing Lattice‐Matched Coherent Heterostructure for Enhanced Sodium Storage

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The coherent heterostructure and the strong stress field at the heterointerface upshift the d‐band center of vanadium toward the Fermi level, which effectively lowers the Na+ diffusion barrier, facilitates charge transfer and accelerates reaction kinetics.

Fast Neutron Detector Based on Hybrid 2D Perovskite Thin Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents the direct detection of fast neutrons using flexible hybrid 2D perovskite (PEA2PbBr4) thin‐film detectors. Thanks to their high low‐Z elements content and good charge transport, these materials enable efficient neutron detection. The thin film configuration allowed the operation at low voltage, and offer scalability, flexibility, and

Transient Stiffness Patterning in Hydrogels Driven by Dissipative Mechanochemical Coupling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Force‐induced disulfide bond rupture in a polymer‐based hydrogel, coupled with chemical or electrochemical reoxidation, leads to the transient modulation of the hydrogel's stiffness properties. High spatiotemporal control is achieved by this dissipative process, enabling the development of out‐of‐equilibrium stiffness patterns and transient, dose ...

Engineering Active CeO2/Fe3C Interfacial Sites to Generate High‐Charge‐Density Fe for Enhanced Oxygen Reduction Reaction Efficiency

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A well‐modulated CeO2/Fe3C heterostructure is successfully constructed. The electron redistribution induced by CeO2 not only enhances the formation energy of Fe vacancies and hinders the dissolution of Fe but also reduces the energy barrier of the ORR.
