Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the first epitaxial integration of electro‐optic KNbO3 thin films on silicon using suboxide molecular‐beam epitaxy. Combining adsorption‐controlled molecular‐beam epitaxy, advanced characterization, and phase‐field modeling, we demonstrate phase‐pure crystalline films mirroring bulk crystals with robust Pockels response, enabling future ...

A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

Sound source localization of flow around circular cylinder by a virtual microphone array technique

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
Sound source localization technology is used to study the noise mechanism generated by flow around a circular cylinder. Detached-eddy simulation is performed to compute the flow field and the far-field noise is calculated with the Ffowcs Williams and ...

Percolation‐Driven β‐Relaxation Enables Resonant Acceleration of Crystallization in Amorphous Phase‐Change Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Mobile‐atom percolation underlying β‐relaxations fundamentally dictates the crystallization pathways of phase‐change materials. High‐frequency ultrasonic excitation dynamically modulates this critical mobility percolation network, substantially accelerating the crystallization process.

Effects of Acoustic Shielding on Beamforming for Rotating Sound Source Localization

open access: yesAcoustics
Beamforming for rotating sound source localization (denoted by rotating beamforming) is widely used in engineering nowadays. Acoustic shielding, such as shafts and covers, is typically employed in the practical measurement of rotating source localization.

Biohybrid Crawling Robot With Spiral‐Spring Backbone and Inclined Legs for Enhanced Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present a biohybrid crawling robot integrating a muscle ring with a flexible skeleton combining two complementary structural elements. The spiral‐spring backbone enables large‐amplitude bending without compromising axial stability, while outward‐inclined legs with unequal front–rear lengths effectively convert deformation into directional strides ...
