Rotational Anisotropy Raman Spectrometer for High‐Sensitivity Crystallographic Symmetry Analysis
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.We introduce rotational‐anisotropy Raman spectroscopy, an enhanced scheme that overcomes the limitations of traditional polarization‐resolved Raman techniques. This method reveals previously inaccessible phonon symmetries and resolves directional anisotropy of phonon‐polaritons in benchmark crystals, establishing a powerful new tool for characterizing ...

Low‐Hysteresis Cellulose‐Based Hydrogels for Strain Detecting
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Low‐hysteresis hydrogel with high cellulose content is prepared. The modified cellulose is prepared through a sequential periodate oxidation and borohydride reduction process. The hydrogel can be used as a strain sensor with a gauge factor of 1.1 in the 0%–300% sensing range.

Crystallization in Poly(Ethylene Oxide) Thin Films: Roles of Shear, Confinement, and Homoepitaxy
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.A comprehensive three‐mechanism framework governing PEO crystallization orientation in thin films was established using GIWAXS and molecular‐level PM‐IRRAS analysis. We demonstrate systematic switching between shear‐induced edge‐on and confinement‐ or homoepitaxy‐induced flat‐on alignment.

Properties of Liquid Crystalline Elastomer Foams
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Controlled foaming of liquid crystalline elastomers (LCE) with expandable microspheres creates particle‐centred mesogenic interphases that enhance viscoelastic dissipation at low bubble fractions. Under impact, optimal damping shifts to moderate porosity, balancing interphase loss, bubble compression, compliance, and integrity.

Multiomics Insights Into AL Amyloidosis
Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Light chain amyloidosis is a systemic or localized protein conformational disorder triggered by misfolded immunoglobulin light chains, leading to amyloid fibril deposition. The disease is characterized by multiorgan involvement and delayed diagnosis, contributing to poor prognosis and high mortality rates.

Poly‐Ether‐Ether‐Ketone Melt Behavior in Fused Deposit Modeling Printing Moves
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.A thin solidified layer forms at the print bed during FDM of PEEK, reducing the effective shear height and raising the effective shear rate above the nominal value. Surface defects emerge once the effective shear rate exceeds a critical value of approximately 750 s−1.
