Article Abstract
Ultrathin titanium nitride (TiN) films have become a novel material flatform for constructing active metasurfaces in the near-infrared region. In this Letter, we numerically achieved the dual functions of switchable linear dichroism (LD) and tunable perfect absorption in a G-shape gold resonators/TiN film hybrid metasurface by gating ultrathin TiN films. As the carrier density of TiN decreases, the modulation depth for LD strength is about 70% at 1211 nm. Meanwhile, the response wavelength of perfect absorption (∼1) shifts to the blue by around 130 nm with a change of carrier density of 12%. Our proposed active metasurface with the capability of strength-switchable LD and wavelength-tunable perfect absorption has considerable potential in dynamic electro-optic modulation and flat photonic devices with reconfigurable functionalities.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) enables an excellent surface coverage and uniformity in the preparation of large-area metal-oxide thin films. In particular, ALD-processed SnO has demonstrated great potential as an electron transport layer in flexible perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and tandem modules. However, the poor electrical conductivities and surface wettabilities of amorphous SnO remain critical challenges for commercialization.

The development of high-performance neural interfaces is critical for advancing brain-machine communication and treating neurological disorders. A major challenge in neural electrode design is achieving a seamless biological-electronic interface with optimized electrochemical properties, mechanical stability, and biocompatibility. In this study, we introduce a hierarchical micronanostructured poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-polydopamine (PEDOT-PDA) coating on titanium nitride (TiN) microelectrodes engineered to enhance electrophysiological signal recording and neural integration.

Arterial stiffening is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, particularly affecting organs with low vascular resistance, such as the brain and kidneys. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the clinical gold standard for arterial stiffness assessment; however, conventional equipment requires complex setups and trained operators, limiting real-world and point-of-care monitoring. Here, we introduce a tactile-transparent wearable (TTW) sensor that preserves physicians' tactile pulse palpation abilities while providing quantitative cardiovascular risk assessment by integrating flexible Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) electrodes and ultrathin graphene oxide dielectric films.

Nanogranular films obtained by the soft assembly of atomic clusters feature functional properties that are of interest in a variety of fields, ranging from gas sensing to neuromorphic computing, heterogeneous catalysis and the biomedical sector. Bimetallic nanogranular films, combining a post-transition metal (tin) and a catalytic metal (platinum), were produced using supersonic cluster beam deposition. By operating the cluster source with a double-rod cathode or sintered cathode configuration, completely different nanostructures were obtained.

A new, readily accessible inorganic hole transporting material (HTM), Cu doped SnCoO (Cu-SCO), is developed for inverted tin-perovskite solar modules (TPSMs). To overcome the intrinsic defect of inorganic solid-state material Cu-SCO and potential interfacial incompatibility with TPsk, an amphiphilic neutral donor-acceptor copolymer (PTSN) is rationally designed as a surface/interface modification agent. TPSMs based on Cu doped SnCoO HTLs integrated with PTSN surface/interface modification achieved the highest conversion efficiency of 10.
