Tunable Reversible Photochromic Ultralong Organic Phosphorescence via a Universal Phenylpyridine Noncovalent Assembly Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A concise supramolecular assembly strategy using α‐cyclodextrin and phenylpyridine derivatives affords dual‐functional materials with switchable multicolor photochromism and tunable ultralong organic phosphorescence, offering new platforms for various photonic applications. ABSTRACT Supramolecular photochromic materials capable of reversible alteration

Bayesian Functional Data Analysis in Astronomy

Physical Sciences Forum
Cosmic demographics—the statistical study of populations of astrophysical objects—has long relied on tools from multivariate statistics for analyzing data comprising fixed-length vectors of properties of objects, as might be compiled in a tabular ...

A Phosphorylation‐Induced Micellization Switch in the Low‐Complexity Domain of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phosphorylation of TAR DNA‐binding protein's 43 kDa (TDP‐43) low‐complexity domain by casein kinase 1 delta (CK1δ) acts as a molecular switch, redirecting its self‐assembly from macroscopic phase separation toward finite‐sized, spherical block‐copolymer micelles of ∼30 nm.

Joint Diagnostics of Circumsolar Sky Brightness Using Coronagraphic Measurements and Aerosol Optical Inversions at Maunaloa

The Astrophysical Journal
Atmospheric aerosols strongly influence daytime sky quality for solar coronal imaging, yet few studies directly link aerosol properties and sky brightness measurements within ∼2° of the Sun. Here, we compare externally occulted coronagraphic measurements

Structural Colors from Modulated Topological Defects in Molecular Smectic Liquid Crystals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rather than using dyes and pigments, nature produces the colors of some butterflies and beetles through optical interference phenomena. This study describes an original biomimetic strategy exploiting the spontaneous formation of modulated linear defects in thin films of 8CB, a common molecular liquid crystal.

Thermal Control of Concentric Topographies Patterned by Dynamic Electro‐Templated Generated Chiral Solitonic Structures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An electro‐templating strategy directs the relaxation of cholesteric finger loops into discrete concentric rings whose geometry is electrically programmed. The photopolymerized structures retain the topological defect pattern and, upon heating, show reversible, castle‐like surface modulation.

Unipolar Barrier Near‐Infrared 2D Photodetectors for 3D Image Sensors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A MoTe2/WSe2/Cl–SnSe2 unipolar barrier photodetector is demonstrated, in which the WSe2 layer effectively blocks majority‐carrier injection, yielding suppressed dark current and enhanced near‐infrared (NIR) sensing. The device achieves high detectivity, a wide linear dynamic range, and fast response under 1310 nm illumination, enabling high‐fidelity 3D

Temperature‐ and Light‐Regulated Liquid Crystal Smart Window for Dynamic Control of Daylight and Solar Heat in All‐Weather Conditions

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An environmentally adaptive smart window based on the interplay of light‐driven molecular motors and liquid crystal (LC) polymers is developed. The window can dynamically switch among three distinct working states: transparent, reflective, and scattering, depending on ambient temperature and solar light intensity, enabling excellent modulation of ...

Chiral Morphing of Liquid Crystal Polymer Networks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper reviews how macroscopic chirality spontaneously arises from liquid crystal polymer materials. It describes how alignment is utilized to create the mechanical anisotropy, geometric misorientation and asymmetry that leads to chiral shape morphing, how shape selection between helicoids and helices arises, the techniques used to prepare these ...

Electrochemically Triggered Supramolecular Polymerization Under Kinetic Control

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Chemical and electrochemical stimuli enable controlled supramolecular polymerization of perylene diimide–histidine (PDI–His). Redox processes mediate the transformation of kinetically trapped aggregates into thermodynamically stable nanofibers, thereby supporting seeded growth. This approach provides a strategy for regulating self‐assembly pathways and
