Chemically Programmable Underwater Sound‐Absorbing Metamaterial via MXene Self‐Assembly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MXene self‐assembly creates a chemically programmable underwater metamaterial with quasi‐periodic layers and a chemical‐physical multi‐level constraint system. A crosslinker as a ‘chemical scissor’ precisely edits microscopic interactions, exciting deep‐subwavelength strong local resonances that induce near‐zero/negative effective bulk modulus (Keff ...
