Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A miniaturized mechano‐acoustic sensor is developed using an electrospun PVDF nanomesh as the diaphragm in a capacitive sensor structure. Unlike conventional nanomesh‐based sensors, it achieves high linear sensitivity, a broad and flat frequency response, and a compact form factor.

A technical framework to describe occupant behavior for building energy simulations [PDF]
, 2020 Green buildings that fail to meet expected design performance criteria indicate that technology alone does not guarantee high performance. Human influences are quite often simplified and ignored in the design, construction, and operation of buildings ...

Spectrally Tunable 2D Material‐Based Infrared Photodetectors for Intelligent Optoelectronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Intelligent optoelectronics through spectral engineering of 2D material‐based infrared photodetectors. Abstract The evolution of intelligent optoelectronic systems is driven by artificial intelligence (AI). However, their practical realization hinges on the ability to dynamically capture and process optical signals across a broad infrared (IR) spectrum.

Selection Strategies for Flexible Pressure Sensor Electrode Materials Toward Ultrafast Response
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study reveals, for the first time, how the electrode–organic interface governs the temporal performance of flexible pressure sensors. By pairing high‐conductivity CVD PEDOT with commonly used metal electrodes, the authors demonstrate that interfacial energy alignment dictates microsecond‐scale response, providing a straightforward design strategy ...

Selection criteria for engineering solutions to ensure acoustic comfort of urban and rural areas [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 The article reflects the opinion that the choice of optimal engineering solution to ensure acoustic comfort in a specific urban or rural area should be based, first of all, on the use of two criteria: environmental efficiency and energy efficiency.
