Electromagnetic (EM) absorbers play an increasingly essential role in the electronic information age, even toward the coming "intelligent era". The remarkable merits of heterointerface engineering and its peculiar EM characteristics inject a fresh and infinite vitality for designing high-efficiency and stimuli-responsive EM absorbers. However, there still exist huge challenges in understanding and reinforcing these interface effects from the micro and macro perspectives. Herein, EM response mechanisms of interfacial effects are dissected in depth, and with a focus on advanced characterization as well as theoretical techniques. Then, the representative optimization strategies are systematically discussed with emphasis on component selection and structural design. More importantly, the most cutting-edge smart EM functional devices based on heterointerface engineering are reported. Finally, current challenges and concrete suggestions are proposed, and future perspectives on this promising field are also predicted.

Development of efficient and stable bifunctional transition metal phosphide catalysts is critical for advancing hydrogen production technologies. Herein, RuCo co-doped NiP (RuCoNiP) was designed and synthesized by one-step electrodeposition for Ni electronic structure modulation, and evolved to RuCoNiP@α-Ni(OH) and RuCoNiP@Co/Ni(OH) heterointerfaces by self-assembled reconstruction during HER and OER processes, respectively. RuCoNiP@α-Ni(OH) enhances HER activity (305.

Piezoionic materials have attracted considerable attention for their ability to generate iontronic signals or power in response to stress stimuli. However, the limited intrinsic transport distinction between cations and anions within most ionic materials results in weakened iontronic power conversion efficiencies under stress fields. Here, we report a piezoheterogated biphasic gel for ultrahigh iontronic generation, characterized by high-internal microphase heterointerfaces that facilitate the distinct transport of various ion species.

We report here a BiWO/TiCT@Ag (BT@Ag) photothermal photocatalyst for efficient CO reduction with tunable CH selectivity. Incorporation of TiCT MXene creates well-defined heterointerfaces between BiWO and TiCT and converts thermal energy upon light illumination via photothermal effect, which contributes to a mitigation of the recombination of photo-induced charge carries for a high electron mobility. Density functional theory calculations substantiate that TiCT functions as the adsorption site and active center where the transferred electrons are effectively involved in CO reduction for enhanced CH selectivity.

The demand for lightweight heat dissipation design in highly miniaturized and portable electronic devices with high thermal density is becoming increasingly urgent. Herein, highly thermal conductive carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced aluminum foam composites were prepared by catalyst chemical bath and subsequent in-situ growth approach. The dense CNTs show the intertwined structure features and construct high-speed channels near the surface of the skeletons for efficient thermal conduction, promoting the transport efficiency of heat flow.
