Coverable Self‐Cleaning Glass via Abnormal Transport and Jump of Charged Particles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The abnormal reverse lateral transport behavior of charged particles is reported. The mechanism of transport and jump behaviors of charged particles is revealed. Furthermore, a transparent and simple self‐cleaning glass driven by the electric field is developed.

Moisture Harvesting by the Structure Regulation of Hygroscopic Hydrogel for Energy and Water Sustainability

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Hygroscopic hydrogels are capable of utilizing the moisture from air, which can transfer the gaseous water to liquid by a surface phase transition. Taking advantage of this water, sustainable water production, thermal management, and electricity generation can be realized.

Exotic Photothermal Response in Ti‐Based MXene Optoelectronic Devices

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This work uncovers the photothermal response of Ti‐based MXene devices to laser irradiation under different experimental conditions. Ti2CTx exhibits an asymmetric photothermal response, characterized by three orders of magnitude slower relaxation kinetics than Ti3C2Tx.
