Dual‐Mode Gripper With Suction and Shape‐Adaptive Freezing Grasps
This study presents a dual‐mode robotic gripper that combines vacuum suction with a shape‐adaptive freezing grasp. The freezing mode uses a compliant rubber membrane, a sprayed water layer, and dry‐ice powder to generate ice‐mediated adhesion while conforming to complex geometries.

Flexoelectricity in Photoconversion: Fundamentals, Materials, and Outlooks
Mechanical bending of a flexible cantilever induces a strain gradient in the photoactive material. The resulting flexoelectric field couples with photovoltaic and photoconductive effects, modulating charge generation, separation, and collection. A comparative analysis of oxide perovskites, halide perovskites, and two‐dimensional materials is presented,
