Thin Fluoride Insulators for Improved 2D Transistors: From Deposition Methods to Recent Applications

open access: yesphysica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.
2D materials hold significant promise for next‐generation electronic and optoelectronic devices, but suitable gate dielectrics are still a challenge. Fluoride insulators, offering inert, dangling‐bond‐free surfaces, have recently emerged as strong candidates. This review covers recent publications on high‐quality fluoride thin‐film deposition and their

Why Autonomous Vehicles Are Not Ready Yet: A Multi‐Disciplinary Review of Problems, Attempted Solutions, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...

Collaborative Sampling and Imaging of Phytoplankton Communities by Two Long‐Range Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Using Acoustic Tracking and Messaging

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Collaborative operation of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can effectively achieve scientific goals that are hard to achieve by independently operated vehicles. Some science payloads are large, expensive, and need to be installed in the vehicle's nose cone. A vehicle can only carry one such payload.

Microscale Templating of Functional Particles Using Self‐Limiting Electrospray Deposition

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Self‐limiting electrospray deposition (SLED) uses trapped charge in a growing film to redirect incoming material and produce highly targeted and uniform sprays. Here, nanoparticles are added to sprays to functionalize pre‐patterned electrodes and other devices.

Liquid‐Processed 2D Aromatic Amorphous Carbon: Defect Engineering and Universal Transport Scaling

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Liquid‐processed graphene oxide (GO) thin films undergo a controllable crystalline–to–amorphous transition driven by thermal quenching. By kinetically tuning oxygen‐driven defect formation during reduction, scalable 2D aromatic amorphous carbon phases are stabilized, directly linking nanoscale disorder and defect topology to electronic transport ...
