The APTES linker establishes a permanent interfacial dipole, reducing the work function of n‐GaN from 3.55 to 3.29 eV. This strengthens the built‐in electric field, significantly accelerating hole extraction to drive the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Ultimately, this tailored charge‐separation architecture achieves a remarkable 4.78‐fold enhancement

Bistable Isochoric Chiral Metamaterials with Reprogrammable Multiaxial Responses
An isochoric bistable rotational unit cell enables in situ modification of internal contact conditions post‐fabrication, without altering the global envelope dimensions of the surrounding architecture. By selectively switching between open and closed states, the tessellated chiral metamaterial can reprogram its volumetric response, including bulk ...

Ultra‐Thin Tow‐Based Discontinuous Composites—Material Overview and Aspirations
Tow‐based discontinuous composites made from ultra‐thin tapes offer outstanding in‐plane mechanical properties. This material, inspired by Nacre, has high volume fraction of tapes exceeding 90 % and allows for quasi‐isotropic material plates less than 100 micrometer in thickness.

Integral evaluation of innovative building envelopes
S.293-297The building envelope is the physical separator between the interior and exterior of a building. lt determines the energy efficiency of a building and the comfort of the individual spaces it contains. Fraunhofer IBP's site in Holzkirchen is home

A novel nonlinear infrasound sensor concept based on a free‐standing ion conductive gel membrane is introduced. Acoustic signals are directly transduced into an electrical signal using an internal application mechanisms (gating). The nonlinearity might be used for neuromorphic in‐sensor computing. ABSTRACT Measuring low‐frequency or infrasound acoustic

Heat Recovery in Building Envelopes [PDF]
Infiltration has traditionally been assumed to contribute to the energy load of a building by an amount equal to the product of the infiltration flow rate and the enthalpy difference between inside and outside. Application of such a simple formula may produce an unreasonably high contribution because of heat recovery within the building envelope ...
