Liquid Crystal Elastomers for Biological Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The term liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) describes a class of materials that combine the elastic entropy behaviour associated with conventional elastomers with the stimuli responsive properties of anisotropic liquid crystals.

Halide Perovskite: A Rich Source of Thermal Insulator

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Halide perovskites exhibit ultralow thermal conductivity driven by intrinsic lattice softness and strong anharmonicity, falling below conventional defect‐engineering limits. Weak metavalent bonding, A‐site rattling, and dynamic octahedral tilting drive phonon scattering to the Ioffe–Regel limit, where wave‐like tunneling replaces particle‐like ...

Inverse design of soft materials via a deep learning-based evolutionary strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Colloidal self-assembly-the spontaneous organization of colloids into ordered structures-has been considered key to produce next-generation materials. However, the present-day staggering variety of colloidal building blocks and the limitless number of ...

Toward High‐Resolution Polymeric Neural Interfaces: A Practical Guide for Electron Beam Lithography

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Electron beam lithography (EBL) enables sub‐micron patterning of polymer‐based neural implants, overcoming the resolution limits of optical lithography. By addressing challenges such as charging, non‐planarity, and substrate heating, it supports higher channel density, improved miniaturization, and better long‐term tissue integration.

Voltage‐Driven Non‐Volatile Interconversion Between Giant Single‐Domain and Multidomain Magnetic States in a Multiferroic Heterostructure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Non‐volatile voltage control of magnetic configurations is achieved in a strain‐coupled multiferroic heterostructure. Voltage pulses reversibly interconvert giant single‐domain and multidomain magnetic states, which remain stable at zero applied voltage. ABSTRACT Voltage control of magnetic states in multiferroic heterostructures represents a promising

Rapid Photogelation of Low‐Concentration Polymer Solutions via Photodimerization of o‐Ethylnitrobenzene

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Upon UV irradiation, flexible and tough hydrogels are formed rapidly (>0.5 s) from dilute (>0.5 wt%) solutions of o‐ethylnitrobenzene–modified PVA. At ∼1.5 wt%, the hydrogels withstand up to 10 MPa compression, remain handleable even after 200‐fold swelling.
