Ultra‐Fast, Unidirectional Water Absorption on Wood Ear (Adv. Mater. 7/2025)
Fast Liquid Absorption A type of delicious fungus, wood ear, displays exceptional water absorption capability on one of its surfaces due to the dense micro-sized hairs on its porous sublayer. This unique structure facilitates simultaneous lateral spreading and vertical imbibition, resulting in rapid, unidirectional water absorption. More details can be found in article number 2413364 by Yu-Qiong Luo, Jie Ju, and co-workers.
