Dynamic reconfigurable metamaterials for coordinated heat and charge transport

Coordinated control of coupled heat and charge transport is fundamental to advanced thermoelectric energy conversion and management. Existing thermoelectric metamaterials are largely limited to static or steady-state functionalities. While spatiotemporal modulation has enabled dy...

Lighting Up Yb‐MOF Across Visible and NIR Regions Through High‐Pressure Engineering

ABSTRACT Lanthanide metal‐organic frameworks (Ln‐MOFs) provide a robust platform for developing multifunctional materials with efficient dual emissions from both organic and Ln 3+ centers. However, the structural parameters that govern their intrinsic emission properties, as well...

Spatial Confinement Engineering in a Bioinspired Capillary Electrode for Efficient Uranium Recovery From Seawater

ABSTRACT The electrochemical extraction of critical elements from complex aqueous environments is fundamentally limited by sluggish ion transport and low utilization efficiency in conventional porous electrodes, where reactions are confined to the surface. Inspired by the hierarc...

Curving transparent ceramics via force-driven sintering

Transparent ceramics are critical for advanced optics and armor, but shaping them into highly curved geometries without degrading their optical and mechanical properties remains a formidable challenge. Here, we introduce a force-driven sintering strategy that harnesses force-indu...
