Programmable Information Processing With Reconfigurable Self‐Contact Variable Stiffness Mechanical Metamaterial

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable self‐contact variable stiffness metamaterials based on shape memory polymers enable programmable stiffness switching. Static arrays store and encrypt information with immunity to electromagnetic interference, while asymmetric stiffness converts symmetric vibration into directional matter transport.

Spontaneous Cyclic Levitation of Glycerol‐Water Droplets at Low Pressures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under low pressure, a minute glycerol addition transforms the chaotic dynamics of freezing water droplets into cyclic levitation. Freeze‐concentration preserves liquid pathways that relax expansion‐induced stress, while freezing point depression weakens asymmetric vaporization recoil.

Surface‐Engineered Ti3C2Tx MXene/Cu2O Photocathodes for Highly Selective Photoelectrocatalytic CO2 Reduction to Ethanol

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐engineering Ti3C2Tx MXenes with an in situ‐grown TiO2 layer on the surface in combination with visible‐light‐absorbing Cu2O significantly enhances charge separation and carrier extraction while improving Cu2O resistance to photocorrosion. The resulting Cu2O/TiO2‐MXene photocathodes enable highly selective, solar‐driven ethanol production ...
