Q‐LEAP: Millisecond Hyperdimensional Optimization for Full‐Spectrum Optical Metamaterials

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Q‐LEAP integrates physics‐informed residual machine learning with factorization‐machine‐encoded quantum annealing to design full‐spectrum optical metamaterials. It explores a 2108 design space and, in a single 2.56 ms annealing step, reaches 85.83% of the theoretical FoM limit, enabling selective 5‐8 µm emission with 3–5 and 8–14 µm suppression and ∼40×

Nonlinear Ion‐Specific Control of Underwater Adhesion by Bottlebrush Polymer Interfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The efficiency of underwater adhesion is modulated by ion‐specific effects. Strongly hydrated Na+ remains separated from the mica surface by its hydration shell, preserving access to binding sites, whereas weakly hydrated K+ can partially dehydrate and occupy ditrigonal cavities.

Fire performance of blind bolted composite beam to column joints

, 2017
Blind bolts can be used to connect steel beams to concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) columns, and the obtained composite joints have relatively high initial stiffness, flexural resistance, and ductility at ambient temperature.

Facile One‐Pot Solvothermal Synthesis of Bi2Te3 Nanoplate/Te Nanorod Composites with High Seebeck Coefficients for Flexible Film‐Based Thermoelectric Generators

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A one‐pot solvothermal reaction yields Bi2Te3 nanoplate/Te nanorod composites, in which the antimony precursor regulates crystallite size without lattice incorporation. Drop‐cast flexible films reach Seebeck coefficients of −127 and 323 µV K−1 at 393 K, and a flexible thermoelectric generator produces 6.2 mV at a temperature difference of 5.6 K ...
