Multifunctional Fluidic Units for Emergent, Responsive Robotic Behaviors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional reconfigurable fluidic unit can be used as sensor, valve and actuator is presented. A unique configuration combines the features of the three components as a Responsive self‐oscillating actuator. The remarkable versatility of the fluidic unit is demonstrated by building different robots with the same fluidic units only by varying ...

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Rewriting Polymer Fate via Chemomechanical Coupling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a life‐like “living” polymer platform that can grow, degrow, and reprogram its properties after fabrication. By integrating mass transport, reversible polymerization, and controlled catalysis, the material achieves on‐demand changes in size, shape, and mechanical properties.

Coherent Chaotic Communication Using Generalized Runge–Kutta Method

Mathematics
Computer simulation of continuous chaotic systems is usually performed using numerical methods. The discretization may introduce new properties into finite-difference models compared to their continuous prototypes and can therefore lead to new types of ...

Photo‐Reconfigurable Supercoupling Induced Transparency in On‐Chip Topological Edge State Cavities

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel supercoupling induced transparency (SIT) is demonstrated in a valley‐Hall photonic crystal. The valley vortices enable the supercoupling between a leaky and a guided topological edge state cavity even across a distance of 4.3 wavelengths, inducing a transparency window with negligible reflection.

Engineering Chiroptical Interactions through Integrating Plasmonic Arrays with Cholesteric Nanocellulose

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, we demonstrate how the combination of plant‐based cellulose and gold nanoparticle lines produces robust, tunable chiral light control in composite films. The resulting plasmonic cellulose composite exhibits a strong plasmonic CD at the surface lattice resonance, along with an inversion of chiroptical response upon reversing the ...

Matrix Stiffness Governs Fibroblasts’ Regulation of Gingival Immune Homeostasis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study identifies a “mechano‐epigenetic” checkpoint in which matrix stiffness governs the immune responses of gingival fibroblasts. Using biomimetic hydrogels and human gingival explants, the studies revealed that restoring extracellular matrix stiffness actively suppresses inflammation via non‐canonical NF‐κB signaling and DNA methylation ...

Recent Progress on Flexible Multimodal Sensors: Decoupling Strategies, Fabrication and Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this review, we establish a tripartite decoupling framework for flexible multimodal sensors, which elucidates the underlying principles of signal crosstalk and their solutions through material design, structural engineering, and AI algorithms. We also demonstrate its potential applications across environmental monitoring, health monitoring, human ...

Coherent all Optical Reservoir Computing for Equalization of Impairments in Coherent Fiber Optic Communication Systems

IEEE Photonics Journal
Reservoir computing (RC) is a bio-inspired framework suited for temporal data processing. Here we propose an all optical coherent RC for the equalization of the impairments of fiber optic (FO) system based on coherent detection.
