Structural Colors from Modulated Topological Defects in Molecular Smectic Liquid Crystals
Rather than using dyes and pigments, nature produces the colors of some butterflies and beetles through optical interference phenomena. This study describes an original biomimetic strategy exploiting the spontaneous formation of modulated linear defects in thin films of 8CB, a common molecular liquid crystal.

Review of Gastrointestinal Capsule Robots: Materials, Actuation, Diagnostics, and Therapeutics
This review examines gastrointestinal capsule robots through a systems engineering lens, covering shell materials, actuation and localization strategies, diagnostic modalities, therapeutic interventions, and commercialization status. By mapping the complete technological chain from fabrication to clinical deployment, this work identifies critical gaps ...

Explaining budgetary indiscipline: evidence from spanish municipalities [PDF]
The quest for political support drives to upward deviations from forecasted public deficits when i) budget procedures are soft, ii) breaking promises involving higher expenditures and lower taxes is costly in political terms, and iii) ex–post control by ...

CLRe: A Synergistic Dual‐Engine Framework for One‐Step Retrosynthesis Prediction
CLRe uses a contrastive difficulty score to order pretrained seq2seq fine‐tuning for retrosynthesis. Reaction embeddings define the ranking score, and a cumulative easy‐to‐hard schedule expands from the easiest subset to the full training set while earlier examples remain active.

This work develops photocatalytic coatings for indoor formaldehyde removal on wood surfaces. It explores coating‐induced color variations and visual perception via eye‐tracking tests. Combined with XGBoost and Bayesian optimization, an intelligent design framework is established to guide the optimization of visually friendly wood photocatalytic ...

Battery‐Inspired Electrochemical Synapses for Neuromorphic Applications
Battery‐ion‐inspired synaptic devices integrate diverse electrolyte systems (solid, ion‐gel, liquid) with transition metal oxides, two‐dimensional materials, and organic channels to regulate ion‐electron coupling. By tailoring ion transport and host interactions, these platforms enable controllable plasticity and energy‐efficient implementations for ...
