Reconfigurable, Temperature Resilient Phase‐Change Metasurfaces Fabricated via High Throughput Nanoimprinting Lithography

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
ABSTRACT The combination of metasurfaces with chalcogenide phase‐change materials is a highly promising route toward the development of multifunctional and reconfigurable nanophotonic devices. However, their transition into real‐world devices is hindered by several technological challenges. This includes, amongst others, the lack of large area photonic

US‐Japan Alliance: Emmeshing Bilateralism Into Broader Multilateralism

open access: yesAsia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 13, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 21st Century, geopolitical confrontation between the Eurasian continental powers and the sea powers works to divide Asia. The US‐Japan alliance has transformed itself from Japanʼs asymmetrical security dependence of the Cold War period into a mutual and more integrated partnership today.

Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 5, Page 1299-1312, May 2026.
Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),
