In contrast, current methods for the synthesis of these C2 hydrocarbons rely on energy- and carbon-intensive processes that require high temperatures and pressures. The present work addresses these limitations with a novel, low-energy, bioethanol-conversion strategy operating at room temperature and ambient pressure using sono-piezo-photocatalysts. A novel heterostructure of graphene oxide fragments (GO) and sodium bismuth titanate (NBT) within a core-shell microstructure achieved outstanding C2H4 and C2H2 production rates of 134.1 and 55.5 µmol/g/h, respectively. The conversion mechanism is driven by (1) bubble collapse during ultrasound irradiation, generating localized high temperatures (≈4000 K) and pressures (≈100 MPa), and (2) piezo-photocatalytic tuning of GO/NBT by enhanced charge separation and transfer. DFT simulations revealed detailed sono-piezo-photocatalytic conversion pathways, showing significant reductions in energy barriers for C2H4 (22.0 kcal mol−1) and C2H2 (48.0 kcal mol−1) formation. These findings emphasize the critical role of the catalyst in cleaving both C─H and C─O bonds effectively, leading to the desired product formation.","PeriodicalId":112,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Functional Materials","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dissolving Microneedles (MNs) have emerged as a promising, pain‐free alternative to conventional invasive injections, offering the ability to deliver therapeutics through gradual degradation within the skin's interstitial fluids. Building upon the unique properties of both the skin microenvironment and dissolving MNs, a novel concept is introduced wherein dissolving MNs serve as in situ chemical reaction chambers. In this framework, MNs can deliver chemical reactants or catalysts to the skin, enabling the initiation of specific chemical reactions, such as prodrug activation for targeted therapy, the degradation of harmful metabolites, or the enhanced synthesis of beneficial molecules. Moreover, this review systematically explores the potential of dissolving MNs as chemical reaction chambers, discussing key aspects such as their sustained release mechanisms, design strategies, and a range of therapeutic applications.

By incorporating carbazole groups into the monomers, two highly crystalline halogen‐bonded organic frameworks (XOF‐CSP/CTP) are constructed. These XOFs exhibit a high intrinsic conductivity (σ = 1.22 × 10−3 S cm−1) under high‐temperature anhydrous conditions. Doping the XOFs with H3PO4 allows the nitrogen sites and I+ sites on the pore walls to stabilize and tightly confine the H3PO4 network within the porous framework through hydrogen bonding, thereby enhancing proton conductivity under anhydrous conditions (σ = 1.02 × 10−2 S cm−1). Temperature‐dependent curves and theoretical calculations indicate that proton transport is governed by a low‐energy barrier hopping mechanism.

Herein, the layer‐by‐layer assembly conjugated polyimide nanocomposite (PTN‐MXene) through in situ polymerization is proposed to realize high energy density and stability metal‐free AZIBs. Specifically, the unique layered structure and abundant redox centers of conjugated diketone‐based polyimide (PTN), combined with its high structural compatibility with MXene, enable the formation of a layer‐by‐layer assembled 2D/2D heterostructure. This design ensures sufficient contact and expands the interlayer spacing of MXene, facilitating faster electron/ion transport kinetics and providing better access to redox centers. Importantly, the regulation of ion transport behavior from H+ or Zn2+ to H+/Zn2+ coinsertion in PTN‐MXene is achieved and verified by different characterization techniques. Thus, PTN‐MXene anode exhibits high specific capacity (283.4 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1), excellent rate performance and outstanding cycling performance. As a proof‐of‐concept, the full batteries fabricated by Prussian blue analogs cathode and PTN‐MXene anode deliver a high energy density of 72.4 Wh kg−1 and exceptional cycling stability over 2000 cycles.","PeriodicalId":112,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Functional Materials","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143385234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most previously-explored rigid chiral structures are constrained by poor tunability, resulting from their inability to achieve bidirectionally symmetric fabrication. Though the integration of smart materials with femtosecond laser printing has advanced the development of 3D tunable microstructures, unfortunately, the asymmetric deformation of those smart materials breaks the chiral symmetry of fabricated structures. Herein, a feasible strategy namely angle compensation coupling with laser-induced self-assembly of pH-sensitive microstructures to restore the symmetry of chiral self-assemblies, is proposed. Relying on the laser-printing guided capillary force self-assembly, the targeted chiral microstructures featuring bidirectional symmetry and shape-morphing reversibility are successfully harvested, witnessing its unparalleled fabricating flexibility and accurate controllability. Significantly, once the vortex light serves as a probe, the assembled chiral enantiomers yield symmetrically distributed dichroism spectra, evidencing the feasibility of current approaches. This work grants a paradigm for the rapid and steerable manufacture of chiral metasurfaces and further enhances the potential in the fields of optical communication, chemical sensing, and chiral photonics.","PeriodicalId":112,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Functional Materials","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, a facile one-pot strategy is proposed to integrate Zn single atoms into the COF framework through coordination with N and O atoms. Comprehensive characterizations of the microstructure, morphology, and chemical environment provide convincing evidence that Zn exists in Zn-COF as single atoms with a +2 state. Leveraging the synergistic advantages of a high Zn content (12.43%) and an ordered porous structure, Zn-COF demonstrates excellent catalytic activity for polysulfide conversion, effectively suppressing the shuttle effect and enhancing reaction kinetics. Additionally, the ordered porous structure promotes a uniform lithium-ion flow, facilitating homogeneous lithium deposition. Consequently, the comprehensive electrochemical performance of LSBs is significantly improved under both conventional and high-sulfur-loading conditions. This work presents a simple and scalable strategy for integrating single atoms into COFs, thereby introducing robust catalytic sites and ordered porous structures for LSBs. It offers valuable insights and opportunities for advancing efficient polysulfide catalysis and effective lithium dendrite inhibition strategies.","PeriodicalId":112,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Functional Materials","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most existing universal grippers either adopt a single gripping mode with limited gripping capabilities, or combine different gripping mechanisms to achieve a non-single gripping mode, which inevitably increases the complexity of structure and control. Through a homogeneous design without introducing any additional mechanism, a physically intelligent, multimodal universal soft gripper using granular materials is demonstrated that enables four different ready-to-use gripping modes. These four gripping modes are encoded in the gripper structure by designing the gripper with three internal axisymmetric, independently controllable chambers. Continuing the traditional jamming gripping mode, this design can also realize two bionic, complementary vacuum gripping modes. These vacuum modes enable to grip planar objects weighing over 265 N or as small as 4.5% of the gripper diameter, as well as extremely fragile objects such as half an eggshell. Moreover, the gripper can realize a vacuum-jamming integrated grasping mode, allowing for a grasping force of more than 300 N.","PeriodicalId":112,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Functional Materials","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the structure regulation of cocatalyst in situ generated by the transfer medium is usually neglected, which would alter the injection efficiency of photogenerated holes. Besides, more relevant technologies are necessary to investigate the intrinsic action of each part on water oxidation. Herein, a novel triadic photoanode is designed rationally, involving Ti-doped hematite (Ti-Fe2O3) core, nitrogen-doped carbon (CN) interlayer, and Ce-doped NiFe-LDH (NFC) shell. The results like single-molecule fluorescence and short-pulse transient photocurrent experiments reveal CN not only employs as a hole transfer layer to facilitate bulk charge transfer and suppress back recombination, but also polishes up the OH− absorption in conjunction action with NFC. Furthermore, CN exhibits an additional functionality by inducing oxygen vacancies and more Ce4+ in NFC to further raise the injection efficiency, expediting the generation of O2 from absorbed OH−. Consequently, NFC/CN/Ti-Fe2O3 presents a significantly higher photocurrent density than NFC/Ti-Fe2O3, accomplishing a photocurrent density of 2.87 mA cm−2 at 1.23 V versus RHE. The design of the multiple-functional CN exhibits a strategic approach for regulating the reactant absorption and photogenerated hole transfer, thereby enhancing the water oxidation performance.","PeriodicalId":112,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Functional Materials","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, sodium bismuth titanate-based (NBT) ceramics, typical lead-free ferroelectrics, are designed to demonstrate the correlation between the poling process and electrobending. It is found that the internal electric field and ultrahigh electrobending properties can be induced by the poling process. The testing modes are further modified to distinguish the electrobending deformation and electrostrain, revealing that poled ceramics exhibit a bent state. High-temperature poling can induce redistribution of defect dipoles on the bottom and top surfaces of the ceramics, resulting in bending.
