Short and Length‐Independent Group Delay Supported by Topological Edge States in Finite‐Size Su–Schrieffer–Heeger Chains

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates short, length‐independent group delay supported by topological edge states in open Su–Schrieffer–Heeger networks. Strong boundary port coupling enables an order‐of‐magnitude latency reduction compared to bulk modes, alongside robust protection against bulk disorder.

Dynamic Fluorescence Modulation via Light‐Driven Competitive Protonation

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A two‐component molecular system demonstrates reversible, light‐driven fluorescence write–erase cycling and thermal imaging. Illumination of a merocyanine photoacid transfers a proton to a highly efficient fluorescent pyridinium dye, switching its emission color; thermal relaxation reverses the process in the dark.

Durability of Soft Pneumatic Actuators: A Review and Benchmarking Protocol

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Lack of durability is a key challenge hindering the broad scale adoption of soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) in automation industries. This review provides a comprehensive overview of existing research on SPA durability, introduces a standardized durability benchmarking protocol to consolidate the testing of SPAs, and outlines promising directions for ...

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.
