The Elephant Trunk Skin Inspires a Highly Sensitive and Deformable, Yet Robust, Armor Skin

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
The study presents the elephant trunk‐inspired armor skin with tactile sensing (ETATS). The ETATS architecture stretches and compresses while resisting puncture and tear, and it enables optical detection of pressure and lateral strain. Morphology‐based decoupling of strain and pressure paves the way to sensitive and deformable, yet robust, soft‐robotic

Crystallographic Analysis of a Nonvolatile HZO Phase Shifter Integrated on a Si3N4 Waveguide

Advanced Electronic Materials, Volume 12, Issue 11, 8 June 2026.
The nonvolatile resonance shift of an in‐plane HZO phase shifter integrated on a Si3N4 ring resonator is demonstrated through optical measurements under lateral bias. Combining 4D‐STEM with DFT simulations reveals phase redistribution and strain‐induced index changes as the microscopic origin of a nonvolatile photonic modulation.

Stimuli‐Responsive Hydrogels for Optical Applications: Mechanisms, Architectures, and Translational Challenges

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
The review discusses stimuli‐responsive hydrogels as soft optical materials that translate physical, chemical, and biological cues into refractive‐index, scattering, birefringence, diffraction, and transparency changes. It examines major stimulus classes and photonic architectures for biosensing, waveguiding, adaptive lenses, smart windows, and therapy.
