Combining the Pitcher and Lotus Plant: Supericephobic and Superhydrophobic Silicone Films
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Based on bench‐top nanomolding of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with optimized silicone oil content, we developed hierarchically structured silicone films by essentially combining the properties of the lotus and pitcher plant; particularly we are able to achieve water contact angle as high as 171° and ice adhesion strength as low as 11.5 kPa (i.e ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Hyperfine coupling to 29Si$^{29}{\rm Si}$ and 73Ge$^{73}{\rm Ge}$ nuclear spins limits hole spin‐qubit coherence in Ge heterostructures. We demonstrate device‐grade, nuclear‐spin‐free 70Ge$^{70}{\rm Ge}$/28Si70Ge$^{28}{\rm Si}^{70}{\rm Ge}$ quantum wells grown on industrial SiGe buffers with minimal use of enriched precursors.

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Generating hydrogel beads pertains to many engineering applications. We examined two alginate‐based fluids at three concentrations of alginate, cAG$$ {c}_{\mathrm{AG}} $$. We used the “Map of Misery” to determine which material property (viscosity, elasticity, and inertia) drives droplet formation.
