physica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.A two‐step approach based on broad‐beam ion irradiation is demonstrated to produce fine‐tuned self‐assembled surface patterns on MgO(001). It shows an efficient route to modifying the crystalline MgO(001) surface topography in a controlled way, making use of its very specific behavior in terms of both the pattern morphology and patterning dynamics.

Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.

Small, EarlyView.A one‐step oblique angle reactive sputtering approach enables simultaneous tuning of bulk and interfacial stoichiometry in a metal oxide/ silicon heterojunction. In case of vanadium oxides, growth angle variation controls the formation of stoichiometric SiO2, ternary SiOx(V) interlayer, and phase purity of vanadium oxide, considerably simplifying the ...

Small Methods, EarlyView.Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are promising for a wide range of applications. In particular, their exceptional electrical conductivity positions them as potential alternatives to traditional metal conductors. This review identifies the key mechanisms governing their conductivity within composites and proposes practical pathways for translating
