Salt Water Drops Slide Faster: Ionic Modulation of Drop Friction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Salt ions markedly accelerate water drops on conductive substrates coated with nanometer‐thin hydrophobic layers. Across diverse electrolytes and surfaces, higher ion concentration consistently lowers kinetic friction by reducing contact angle hysteresis.

Dual‐Responsive Yarn‐Based Artificial Muscles for Adaptive Thermal Management

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the conscious movements of skeletal muscle, a novel hybrid yarn‐based artificial muscle (HYAM) coupling moisture actuation with controllable recovery is developed. This unique design increases actuation stroke by 128% and shortens recovery time by 91%. This unique design enhances the actuation stroke by 128% and reduces the recovery time by

Ultrasoft Yet Tough Multifunctional Organohydrogels Enabled by Molecular Chain Lubrication Strategy for Self‐Powered Wearable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An ultrasoft yet tough organohydrogel (AQGL) with 5800% stretchability and 14.3 kPa modulus is developed via a novel molecular chain lubrication strategy. It features optical transparency, drying/freezing (−40°C) tolerance, antibacterial activity, conductivity, self‐healing, and adhesiveness.

Multi‐Force‐Driven Self‐Recoverable SWIR Mechanoluminescence for Underwater Communication

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study represents the first demonstration of self‐recoverable mechanoluminescent (ML) within a single material across diverse mechanical modes, enabled by the synergistic coupling of piezoelectric and triboelectric effects. Through a combinatorial doping approach, the MgNb2O6 crystal exhibits breakthrough short‐wavelength infrared ML performance ...
