Advancements in photodetector (PD) technology are pivotal for the evolution of optical communication and imaging systems. Addressing the demands of these applications necessitates PDs that can deliver both high-speed response and high sensitivity. In this context, we introduce an innovative high-speed PD design utilizing ultrathin two-dimensional metal halide perovskites (2D-MHP), coupled with a planar nanocavity to significantly enhance optical absorptance—achieving more than a fourfold increase in a solution-processed 10-nm-thick 2D-MHP film. This integration facilitates an exceptional response time (30 ns) alongside a high responsivity of 2.12 A W−1. Our method overcomes traditional constraints related to thickness and absorption, thereby optimizing device speed and dark noise features through active area variation. Intriguingly, the nanocavity architecture provided a unique protection of 2D-MHP layers, realizing remarkable operational and environmental stability: our devices maintain performance integrity for over 150 days. Notably, our best-performing cavity-enhanced devices exhibit the capability to establish an optical wireless communication link, achieving a data transmission rate of 20 Mbps. This approach effectively tackles the challenges posed by the low absorption of ultrathin layers, heralding a new era for applications in imaging, optical communication systems, and more.

Piezoelectric biomaterials, capable of converting electrical energy to mechanical energy and vice versa, are desirable for implantable devices that can achieve biosensing, tissue regeneration, anti-infection, and tumor treatment. However, their low piezoelectricity, simple geometry, and monotonous functionality remain challenging towards practical applications. Here, we report the design and additive manufacturing of a series of biocompatible piezoelectric lattice materials with bone-mimicking designs and ultrasound-regulated electrical responses. Barium calcium zirconate titanate (BCZT) with a piezoelectric coefficient d33 up to 580 pC/N was synthesized and used as the parent material of the lattices for additive manufacturing. The as-fabricated BCZT lattices have compressive strength comparable to native trabecular bones, making them promising candidates for implantation and in vivo activation. We show that the lattices allow on-demand activation of anti-tumor or osteogenic functions with programmable non-invasive ultrasound stimuli, both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings provide new insights and a widely applicable strategy for developing versatile, non-invasive, and regulatable biomedical devices via bio-mimicking designs and additive manufacturing.

Flexomagnetism refers to the higher order magneto-mechanical coupling, associating magnetic polarization with strain gradient. Although it is weak in bulk materials, the flexomagnetic effect in small-sized samples where the strain gradient could be remarkably large presents an opportunity for the efficient manipulation of magnetic performance in nanomaterials and advanced spintronic devices. In this article we share a state-to-the-art review on the progress, challenges, and opportunities for exploring flexomagnetism. The review starts with the narrow and general definitions of flexomagnetism with a focus on the intrinsic flexomagnetism and flexomagnetic response, respectively. Then we demonstrate the different types of strain gradient for inducing the flexomagnetic effect, the theoretical models at various scales for flexomagnetism, and the simulation/experimental progress on the manipulation of magnetic properties by using flexomagnetic effect. We then discuss the current controversies and challenges regarding the disagreements between experimental and computational results as well as the limitations of existing hypotheses. Lastly, we suggest some prospects for future research on flexomagnetism.

Effective control of toxic gaseous pollutants being emitted into the atmosphere has posed a critical and urgent challenge to deal with global climate change, protect the environment and human health as well as achieve clean and sustainable development. There remains a continuous threat to our human life from various toxic gaseous chemicals. Traditional methods for removing toxic gases usually suffer from shortcomings, such as low-capacity, energy-intensive, waste generation, and high cost. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), architected by various metal centers and organic ligands, represent a new type of adsorbent, which could readily offer a promising solution to capturing toxic gases. In this review, we provide detailed insights of the recent progress made on the adsorptive capture performance of MOF materials towards several critical toxic gases, such as SO₂, NO₂, NH₃, H₂S, sarin, CNCl, and CO. Considering the working condition and mixture components, the adsorption performance of various toxic gases are critically assessed and sorted. By comparing different modification strategies of a series of MOFs and corresponding performance manifestations, we make attempts to delineate future research directions to improve the adsorptive capture performance of MOFs toward toxic gases for real industrial applications.

In addition to the unique properties contributing to the sensing performance, the key aspects of synthesis methods, sensing mechanisms, and sensing performance of 2D materials are systematically elaborated. Furthermore, the review highlights recent progress in performance optimization through material functionalization, heterostructure design, and material systems hybridization. Potential solutions to the key challenges, including scalability, reproducibility, selectivity, and environmental stability, are addressed to unlock the full potential of 2D materials in gas-sensing applications.

In the current context of environmental emergency, the need for sustainable materials with controlled end-of-life is paramount. Covalent Adaptable Networks (CANs) are a novel class of polymers offering a unique solution by combining the main advantages of thermosets and thermoplastics such as high mechanical performance and recyclability. Sustainable feedstocks, such as biobased compounds from biomass represent nowadays prime alternatives to fossil-based chemicals. Consequently, aromatic-rich renewable resources, owing to their abundances and structural variety, are feedstocks of choice in the design of materials combining performance, sustainability, and circularity. Then, the substitution of fossil-based raw materials with biobased compounds for the preparation of CANs is improving, among which aromatic structures, such as lignins, tannins, cashew nutshell liquid or furan, provide unprecedented features and properties. After a description of CANs general features and the presentation of available biobased aromatic feedstocks, an overview of recent advances in the synthesis of biobased aromatic networks is presented. An emphasis is placed on the opportunity offered by the aromatic building blocks functional groups to implement dynamic covalent chemistries. Subsequently, an understanding on the benefits of aromaticity on specific properties required for targeted applications, including sensors, adhesives, flame retardants, biomedical devices, or coatings, is proposed. All these proving the design of biobased and aromatic CANs to be a considerable step towards for a more sustainable future in the frame of a circular bioeconomy.

With the increasing demand for infrared sensing data security, it is crucial to enhance the security of sensing data by utilizing in-sensor encryption techniques while simultaneously reducing latency, power consumption, and hardware resource utilization. However, the inherent computational limitations of sensors impede their capacity to execute sophisticated encryption algorithms. In this paper, we propose hydroxyl black phosphorus (BP) crystal for ambipolar transistors that enable infrared in-sensor encryption. An innovative approach utilizes a simple oxygen plasma treatment technique to fabricate hydroxyl BP crystal is proposed. Hydroxyl bonded on the surface of BP shifts the Fermi level towards the conduction band and generates free electrons, results ambipolar transport. The hydroxyl BP transistors exhibit symmetrical bipolar characteristics with hole mobility of 131.4 cm2 V−1 s−1 and electron mobility of 89.8 cm2 V−1 s−1. Importantly, a non-linear XOR logic gate can be implemented within a single transistor during the infrared sensing process, effectively simplifying the complexity of in-sensor encryption design. Expounding upon this, we demonstrate an infrared in-sensor encryption using an array of hydroxyl BP transistors, which can capture images and achieving high-fidelity infrared in-sensor encryption. Our findings highlight the potential of hydroxyl BP in the development of infrared in-sensor encryption techniques.

The rapid increase in CPU processing speeds has significantly advanced artificial intelligence, yet it has also exacerbated the disparity in CPU utilization and data throughput rates due to the shared memory architecture of traditional von Neumann systems. To enhance computational efficiency, there is a critical need to explore advanced functional materials and integrate these into novel computing architectures. Two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectric materials, characterized by their atomic-scale ferroelectric non-volatile properties and low switching barriers, emerge as promising candidates. These materials are particularly suitable for use as non-volatile resistors and artificial synapses within in-memory computing frameworks. Furthermore, their compatibility with Si-CMOS technology enables the high-density integration of devices, potentially driving a new paradigm in integrated computation between processing units and storage architectures. This review focuses on recent developments in 2D ferroelectric materials, including their structural properties, polarization switching mechanisms, and diverse applications. Special emphasis is placed on their potential in integrated applications such as non-volatile memories, neural network computing, non-volatile logic operations, and optoelectronic memories within neuromorphic computing devices.

Hydroxyapatite (HA), which shares similarities in both chemical composition and structure with bone phosphate systems, and has garnered significant attention in biomedicine due to its outstanding biocompatibility, bioactivity, osteoconduction, and osteoinductivity. Its resemblance to the mineral phase found in bone tissue has led to its extensive utilization in bone grafting and implantation, dental materials, and drug delivery systems. Furthermore, HA’s characteristics can be tailored on various synthetic methods, including precipitation, sol-gel, and biomimetic approaches allowing for the production of customized materials with precisely controlled properties. Recent research has focused on enhancing the HA’s mechanical strength, biodegradability, and bioactivity through composite formulations with polymers, ceramics, and other components, aiming to develop advanced biomaterials with improved properties for myriad biomedical applications. This comprehensive review outlines the diverse fabrication methods for HA and its derivatives, highlighting their biomedical applications and recent advancements. As for the synthesis and functionalization of HA, attentions have been paid to the innovative and efficient methods, precise control of crystal structure and morphology, surface and doping modification, and bionics. Special focus is placed on combining HA with other biomaterials for tissue regeneration, implants, cancer therapy and diagnostics. Optimization of mechanical properties and biocompatibility of HA, personalized customization according to individual differences, and enhancement of antibacterial properties are essential for tissue regeneration and implants. For anti-tumor, precise and combination therapies, as well as the molecular mechanism of the interaction between HA and tumor cells, need to be further explored. Emerging uses in endodontics and anti-inflammatory treatments are also discussed. The review concludes by proposing future research directions to address a wider range of medical challenges effectively.
