Multimodal Bioinspired Self‐Healing Composites Enabling Durable and High‐Efficiency Wearable Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Butterfly wing–inspired intrinsically self‐healing polymer interlayers enable flexible perovskite optoelectronics with high luminance, strain‐insensitive stability, and environmental resilience. These hierarchically structured films redistribute mechanical stress, suppress defect formation, and maintain performance under repeated bending, paving the ...

Enhancing Near‐Room‐Temperature Thermoelectric Performance of n‐Type Mg3(Sb, Bi)2‐Based Materials via ZrB2 Heterointerface Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A conductive ZrB2 ceramic composite strategy was developed for Mg3(Sb, Bi)2 thermoelectrics to regulate carrier transport and phonon scattering through heterointerface engineering. The 1.0 wt.% ZrB2 composite achieved enhanced room‐temperature performance, with a power factor of 28.51 µW cm−1 K−2 and a peak ZT of 1.22 at 573 K.

Programmable Topological Magnetic Textures in Above‐Room‐Temperature 2D Ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the programmable generation and deterministic modulation of magnetic skyrmion bags with high‐order topological numbers in the above‐room‐temperature 2D ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2 (FGaT) via current‐pulse control. Furthermore, highly efficient electrical manipulation and current‐driven parallel motion of these high‐order topological ...

Damage‐Free Passivation of Ambipolar OECTs with Fluoropolymer Film for Enhanced Performance and Stability Toward Reliable Biosignal Processing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A damage‐free iCVD fluoropolymer passivation strategy is introduced for ambipolar vertical OECTs. Vapor‐phase infiltration and thermal annealing induce nanoscale phase separation in the OMIEC channel, enhancing overall device performance. A single‐channel bipolar event‐driven spiking encoder is also demonstrated for electrocardiogram signal encoding ...
