Topological‐defect‐featured order evolution of liquid crystals
Responsive Materials, EarlyView.This review provides a comprehensive introduction to the recent advances in the topological‐defect‐featured order evolution of liquid crystal (LCs), including the stimulus‐driven dynamics of defects in nematic LCs, topological defect morphological transformation during phase transitions, advanced strategies for regulating and applications of ...

Evaluating methods for high‐resolution, national‐scale seagrass mapping in Google Earth Engine
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Marine habitat mapping using satellite imagery can provide baseline and monitoring data across large spatial scales and in remote locations globally. This study evaluates how key methodological choices influence the accuracy of open‐source (for non‐commercial use), cloud‐based satellite mapping workflows for seagrass meadows in the Maldives.

Origin of the Magnetization Anisotropy of Superparamagnetic Beads
Small, EarlyView.Superparamagnetic beads are widely employed to study the mechanics of biomolecules with magnetic tweezers. It is shown that the residual anisotropy of the beads is due to averaging over a finite number of randomly oriented nanoparticles contained in the beads. Pinning of the anisotropic beads in the field causes low and high‐frequency noise in magnetic

Small, EarlyView.Mixed‐ion transport through Å‐scale pores exhibits various functions, including voltage activation, voltage inactivation, nanopulse generation, and synaptic behavior. Our work reveals that one of the fundamental advantages of ionic computing over electronic computingthe diversity of charge carriersdirectly translates into functional diversity in the ...

Multi‐Material Droplet‐Based Hydrogel Threads for Extrusion 3D Printing
Small Methods, EarlyView.This study introduces a novel approach to produce multi‐material threads for 3D printing by precisely arranging hydrogel droplets separated by lipid bilayers. By merging the precision of inkjet printing with the scalability of extrusion printing, this method prevents cross‐contamination, maintains material control, and enables intricate designs ...
