Understanding Decoherence of the Boron Vacancy Center in Hexagonal Boron Nitride

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
State‐of‐the‐art computations unravel the intricate decoherence dynamics of the boron vacancy center in hexagonal boron nitride across magnetic fields from 0 to 3 T. Five distinct regimes emerge, dominated by nuclear spin interactions, revealing optimal coherence times of 1–20 µs in the 180–350 mT range for isotopically pure samples.

Buckling‐Resistant and Trace‐Stacked (BRATS) Design Enables Aid‐Free Implantation of Flexible Multielectrode Array with Minimized Inflammatory Tissue Response

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Buckling‐resistant and trace‐stacked (BRATS) intracortical microelectrode arrays (MEAs) eliminate the need for insertion aid and complex surgical setup, resulting in minimal inflammatory tissue response, compared to conventional flexible MEAs inserted with aid. Trace stacking effectively doubled the channel count without increasing the MEA shank width,

Using In Situ TEM to Understand the Surfaces of Electrocatalysts at Reaction Conditions: Single‐Atoms to Nanoparticles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent advances in closed‐cell in situ TEM strategies for accurate determination of the activity and stability of single‐atom catalyst systems during operation. Operando conditions causing dynamic changes of SAC systems are highlighted and we explain why ensemble average‐based optical techniques may benefit from the technological

Metal‐Organic Frameworks Facilitating Complexation for Long‐Cycle Zinc‐Bromine Flow Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The organic ligands (imidazole and benzimidazole) from the decomposed zinc ZIF‐62 is proposed to further improve the Br2 complexing ability of the mature complexing agent (i.e., N‐methyl‐N‐ethyl pyrrolidinium bromide (MEP) ionic liquid). The synergistic effect between Im/BIm of the decomposed ZIF‐62 toward bromine species and MEP toward bromine species,

A Review on MXene Terminations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Surface terminations play a decisive role in determining the properties of MXenes. Their coordination, composition and stoichiometry can be tuned both during synthesis and through post synthesis methods to tailor MXenes for optimum performance in applications. This review explores the present understanding of surface terminations.

Peptide Sequencing With Single Acid Resolution Using a Sub‐Nanometer Diameter Pore

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
To sequence a single molecule of Aβ1−42–sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the aggregate is forced through a sub‐nanopore 0.4 nm in diameter spanning a 4.0 nm thick membrane. The figure is a visual molecular dynamics (VMD) snapshot depicting the translocation of Aβ1−42–SDS through the pore; only the peptide, the SDS, the Na+ (yellow/green) and Cl− (cyan ...

Biopolymer‐Templated Hierarchical 3D‐Structured Gold Nanoparticle/Graphene Oxide Hybrid Materials for Ultrasensitive Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable bio‐templated approach using spray‐coating and thermal annealing fabricates cellulose nanofibril (CNF) films loaded with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) hybrids as Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates. The 3D CNF network ensures uniform Au NPs distribution, while annealing induces more hotspots, confirmed ...
