Here, we show that tailoring alkyl‐chain topology renders room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) as a sensitive reporter of these microenvironments. Upon thermal annealing, photoinduction, or vacuum deoxygenation, the afterglow varies systematically with chain length and odd–even parity, confirming that RTP monitors cavity‐restricted environments and aggregate structures. Theoretical calculations further reveal that longer chains strengthen intermolecular interactions, whereas odd–even parity dictates packing modes and cavity distributions; together, these factors control oxygen diffusion and triplet deactivation. Thus, this work establishes the relation among chain topology, aggregation architecture, and RTP property, providing an efficient approach to decode subtle evolutions in branched aggregates.","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149172732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biodegradable supercapacitors can safely resorb after completing their function, eliminating secondary surgical removal and reducing long‐term foreign‐body complications, unlike conventional batteries. This review comprehensively discusses recent advances in degradable supercapacitors, focusing on biocompatible polymers, bioresorbable electrodes, separators, electrolytes, and current collectors. This review critically evaluates the electrochemical performance of biodegradable supercapacitors under physiological conditions, including capacitance retention, cycling stability, and degradation behaviour. Current challenges, such as limited energy density, mechanical instability, precise bioresorption kinetics, and scalability, are discussed. This study addresses key regulatory and safety considerations, including biocompatibility, toxicity, immunogenicity, and pathway approval. Further, outlines strategic future directions: bio‐derived carbon, biologically synthesized conductors, self‐healing hydrogel electrolytes, stimulus‐responsive programmable degradation, and energy‐harvesting integration. Emerging frontiers at the intersection of bioelectronics, neuromorphic computing, and living devices, and advocates for standardized benchmarking and circular‐economy integration.

Their formation relies on the synergistic effect of solid‐liquid interface dewetting, principle of energy minimization, and marangoni effect. These microspheres serve as functional fillers within liquid metal (LM) matrix to create magnetic liquid metal (MLM) with magnetism and enhanced conductivity. We focus on the physical mechanism of density matching, achieved by using high‐density W to align the density of Co‐W cores with that of liquid Ag. This strategy effectively suppresses the upward buoyancy of cores during spheroidization. Furthermore, finite element simulations elucidate the critical role of the marangoni effect in promoting the formation of this core‐shell structure. Experimental results verify that density matching significantly improves the encapsulation quality of Ag shells, thereby endowing the fillers with exceptional resistance against LM corrosion. Finally, the versatility of this MLM is validated across the magnetically actuated liquid‐metal soft robot, refreshable liquid‐metal blackboard, self‐healing circuits, and magnetic liquid‐metal strain sensor. These diverse applications underscore the immense potential of MLM as the robust candidate for modern soft intelligent systems.","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149172690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A prerequisite for designing MOFs with optimal thermal conductivities is developing a profound understanding of the underlying atomistic mechanisms. This is at the heart of the present publication, where we first show that the common approach of describing heat conduction in crystalline insulators as a particle-like propagation of phonons (as vibrational energy quanta) is insufficient. This is the consequence of strong inter-band couplings between the densely lying phonon bands in the highly complex materials considered here (MOF-5 and HKUST-1). When accounting for that through suitable physical models in combination with highly accurate machine-learned potentials, a quantitative agreement with experimental single-crystal data becomes possible. Interestingly, the phonons dominating particle-like transport are primarily (acoustic) modes at very low frequencies (up to ∼1.5 THz), while inter-band transitions also occur at much higher frequencies. This can be explained by the sharp drop of phonon lifetimes with frequency, which diminishes particle-like transport but promotes inter-band coupling. Our analysis not only rationalizes the differences in thermal conductivities between MOF-5 and HKUST-1, but also lays the foundations for developing a phonon-based understanding of thermal transport processes in MOFs.</p>","PeriodicalId":228,"journal":{"name":"Small","volume":" ","pages":"e75959"},"PeriodicalIF":11.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149190118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
