Article Abstract
The supermoiré lattice, built by stacking two moiré patterns, provides a platform for creating flat mini-bands and studying electron correlations. An ultimate challenge in assembling a graphene supermoiré lattice is in the deterministic control of its rotational alignment, which is made highly aleatory due to the random nature of the edge chirality and crystal symmetry. Employing the so-called "golden rule of three", here we present an experimental strategy to overcome this challenge and realize the controlled alignment of double-aligned hBN/graphene/hBN supermoiré lattice, where the twist angles between graphene and top/bottom hBN are both close to zero. Remarkably, we find that the crystallographic edge of neighboring graphite can be used to better guide the stacking alignment, as demonstrated by the controlled production of 20 moiré samples with an accuracy better than ~ 0.2°. Finally, we extend our technique to low-angle twisted bilayer graphene and ABC-stacked trilayer graphene, providing a strategy for flat-band engineering in these moiré materials.

Lithium metavanadate (LiVO) is a material of growing interest due to its monoclinic 2/ structure, which supports efficient lithium-ion diffusion through one-dimensional channels. This study presents a detailed structural, electrical, and dielectric characterization of LiVO synthesized a solid-state reaction, employing X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and impedance/dielectric spectroscopy across a temperature range of 473-673 K and frequency range of 10 Hz to 1 MHz. XRD and Rietveld refinement confirmed high crystallinity and single-phase purity with lattice parameters = 10.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have great potential as versatile platforms for proton conduction. However, the commonly applied 2D COFs that are easy to design and synthesize have only 1D channels for proton conduction, limiting the formation of continuous hydrogen bonds due to the anisotropy between their crystalline grains. Herein, we report a strategy to construct 3D channels in 2D COFs by using rotaxane structures and eliminate the strong interlayer π-π interactions, facilitating the formation of smooth 3D proton-transfer pathways during guest doping.

To overcome the persistent challenges of sluggish lithium polysulfide (LiPS) conversion kinetics and the shuttle effect in Li-S batteries, this work introduces a novel, cost-effective thermal treatment strategy for synthesizing high-entropy metal phosphide catalysts using cation-bonded phosphate resins. For the first time, we successfully fabricated single-phase high-entropy FeCoNiCuMnP nanoparticles anchored on a porous carbon network (HEP/C). HEP/C demonstrates enhanced electronic conductivity and superior LiPS adsorption capability, substantially accelerating its redox kinetics.

Electromagnetic pollution poses significant risks to electronic devices and human health, highlighting the need for mechanically robust, lightweight, and cost-effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials. 3D-printed structures with nanomaterial-engineered surfaces offer a promising method for tailoring mechanical and electrical properties through multiscale design. Herein, we present a facile strategy for fabricating lightweight and flexible EMI shielding structures by chemical deposition of nanostructured metal coatings onto 3D-printed polymeric substrates.
