Interactions Between Active Matters and Endogenous Fields

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes endogenous field information and computational methods in contexts such as cancer, wounds, and biofilms. It organizes NAMs and AAMs by sensing, transmitting, and executing functions, compares their limitations, and from these contrasts proposes design strategies for next‐generation AAMs, offering perspectives to foster ...

Programmable Continuous Electrowetting of Liquid Metal for Reconfigurable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a programmable continuous electrowetting (CEW) approach for the dynamic manipulation of liquid metal (LM), enabling directional control via electrochemical modulation. By leveraging laser‐induced graphene (LIG) substrates, a wide range of utilities is demonstrated, including fluidic “valves,” logic gates, and reconfigurable ...

Néel Tensor Torque in Polycrystalline Antiferromagnets

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a Néel tensor torque based on a rank‐two symmetric tensor capturing spin correlations in a polycrystalline antiferromagnet. It shows the Néel tensor can be shaped and reshaped through the spin‐orbit torque (SOT) technique, enabling field‐free SOT switching with a specific polarity of the adjacent ferromagnet. This discovery opens a

Colossal Cryogenic Electro‐Optic Response Through Metastability in Strained BaTiO3 Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Utilizing the thermodynamic theory of optical properties, a colossal cryogenic electro‐optic response in BaTiO3 thin films is designed and demonstrated by stabilizing a low symmetry metastable monoclinic phase via epitaxial strain tuning with an electro‐optic response reaching ≈2516 pm V−1 at 5 K. This approach represents a new paradigm for engineering

Supramolecular Interface Engineering via Interdiffusion for Reusable and Dismantlable Polymer Adhesion

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Reversible adhesion via host–guest complex formation at the polymer interface is achieved by externally controlling the complexation through applied stimuli. Neutron reflectometry analysis of the adhesion interface revealed that the presence of host–guest complexes hinders the polymer interdiffusion by despite promoting adhesion strength.

Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic
